    If you consider 6'8" "big", then we already have Harrell, Dekker & Ariza for the 4. We 6'10" or above for the backup 5 till Clint gets back.

    Size is precisely what he's lacking. He's a classic tweener -- two small for a four and not athletic enough for a three.

    I still wonder how this guy was a No.1 pick.
    If he is no cancer in the lockerroom I'd still take the gamble and get him for the minimum. No.1 pick, maybe he just has a slow start for like 5 years lol

    LOL that he is. This guy's got some bad work ethics from what I've read. Right now he's the worst No. 1 pick in NBA draft history.

    Maybe we should take a flyer on not starting new threads for every released player?

    Just kidding OP.

    On a serious note, I can't understand why Bennett sucks so much, but too many teams who could have used him have dumped him for there to be something there. Personally I think he never got over being dumped the first time, and he does have the talent but not the mental fortitude to deal with his career.

    He is lazy, the definition of a millennial, wants it all given to him doesn't want to work for it.

    Wow didn't know he fell so low, wasn't there a thread last year talking about he was awesome now or something? He's like the bizarro superman version of Raymond Green, same attributes but somewhere something went really wrong lol.

    Point well taken. So.... if we're just singling a guy out with a single gif for effort, I guess this guy would never be signed either if he were released? ;)

    I would rather take a chance wiping my a$$ with a razor blade coated corn cob. Sounds less painful than a flyer on Bennett.

    Yea, DD, because your generation hasn't driven the country into the ground right? The current dumpster fire is the kids faults.

    Thanks for the twenty trillion dollar debt and letting me pay into your broken social security ponzi scheme bruh.

    He has played a whole minute in the finals!!! He was spotted eating kebab just before the finals game & it's not even a joke. It's crazy how lazy and unprofessional he is.

    I think he's averaging 1.1 points per game in Europe, I don't see how that will translate to the NBA very well.
