It's time to reacquire his rights at the very least! Hey DM don't make the same mistake that you did with Landry,make sure you give him a 2 year guaranteed contract.
Badiane is an NBA role player at best as an enforcer. He's there to foul, get rebounds and basically defend. Not much more he can do.
He was traded with the Bobbie jackson, wells and james deal. For cap purposes. i think so we can get under the luxary tax or get a trade exception.
But how many players do they tether to a pole and make them dunk repeatedly? None that I can think of... greatest EVER! What other names without accomplishment get repeated as often as this one? Serge Zwikker was fun. As a man, not as a person. Roderick Rhodes? Two Sammiches? Is it usually big men? There's always Harold Minor...
Badaine had no money value for cap purposes, therefore no trade exception is possible. His rights were traded since we had no interest in bringin him over cause he basically sucks. R Rhodes actually played as a Rocket....big difference
btw, he played on our summer teams also for a few years, big whoop, doesn't mean he's going to make the team. I was high on him, but never came over. I kinda knew the Rockets weren't high on him when I asked about him at a Season Ticket holder dinner with Dennis Lindsey 2 seasons ago before he left for the Spurs. Lindsey basically described him as a "Francisco Elson" type player, but didn't really talk highly of him. He seemed like he was disappointed by his progress. Guess he never grew out his "raw" talent we all saw.
I dunno, people give credit where foreclosure is due. For some reason I've heard the Michael story. The story only needs one name.
This reminds me of the ending of that movie AI. Haley Joel Osmond kid was looking for Malick Badaine the entire movie.
