Reports that the Morris twins, Tucker, and Goodwin were causing some off court drama. That was a while ago though.Quote:

Foolish as it was, that's more than likely why the Suns waived him and kept Jenkins and Jones, who should just be happy to be in the league.
This is why the Barbosa signing was pointless. Chandler, Dudley and Tucker, would have sufficed for veteran leadership. Goodwin should have been the fourth guard instead of sixth.
Snell is more proven and even though he doesn't actually excel at either, is more of a 3 and D type than Hunter, who lacks the physical tools to ever add the latter.Quote:

I think the strict leash worked wonders for Anderson and helped him improve. Without that who knows how he would have turned out, he cannot afford to take his attention away from one second.Quote:

Hunter and Goodwin are too good to not be picked up through waivers. Too small of a chance of happening.
Weren't the Spurs reportedly high on Goodwin in his draft year?Quote:

I'm sure they would make him part of a trade for a clearly better player, but I don't think they would just dump him now that he's made the roster.
Yeah, I agree. PATFO will see the experiment through to the end - bitter or sweet. I cannot help rooting for a guy like Simmons - I am a sucker for underdogs. But last season I thought he'd make it; this season I hope he makes it - with an ever-diminishing hope.Quote:
