    Dude has questionable work ethic and hasn't improved at all since he's been in the league.

    He's the Anti-Landry

    Pretty surprising given he doesn't make much, they have so many injuries and it's so late in the season. He must have shown Westphal absolutely nothing for him to get cut.

    He's Ben Wallace without a job.

    My guess would be that it must be even more than that...like him being a negative influence in the locker room or something.

    Sure the rockets could bring him back but I really question the long term use of such a move. This particular season is a wash and the organization should focus on getting a high draft pick. Bringing him back doesn't help that.

    It wouldn't be a long-term move, it would be a bandaid for to tide us over until the end of the season with Battier, Jeffries, and Andersen down, Chuck on one bad knee, and Hill not 100%.

    Wow...he wasn't even worth a headline apparently. Just an "oh by the way" last sentence mention in a fairly long article.

    I'm ready to cut Armstrong and bring back Dorsey. I doubt this will happen, though.

    I'm not surprised. He was way down the totem pole. I hope he can learn from this setback and play for another team.

    Joey Dorsey is Ben Wallace without the work ethic. Its a shame that he hasn't found his niche yet because he showes so much promise, especially that Memphis game.

    He was doing good before we traded him, what went wrong with the guy?

    Since we traded him, wouldn't we have to wait 30 days after his waiver before we could sign him?

    A word of advice to Dorsey, when he signs with his new team.

    Rent, don't buy. ;)

    Dorsey is a border-line NBA player at best. Undersized and no offensive skills -- it'll be tough for him to stick around in the league.
