Well i hope he doesnt goto dallas.

Say what you want to, but you can't call him a complainer. His career came to a grinding halt here. He's just not a good fit for our system. He needs to be in a spot like Dallas, Phoenix or even NY.
He's apparently a good guy and I wish him all the best.
He isn't worth what it would cost to retain him. He has a polished offensive game (when the ball is in his hands) but he's such a huge liability on defense that's it's not worth it.
His lack of the intangibles and on court awareness are such big detractors from him as a player that he's really not worth the MLE.
Pistons Need A Big man, who can score on the block.... Gooden Is above average on the block, get them 13 to 15 pts a game.... maybe 8 boards..... they lost wallace and dice.... he would get the most Playing time In detroit with only Chris Wilcox, and villanueva to compete for mins with.....
I'm just really impressed how Gooden has not had one negative thing to say about the Spurs or Pop. Pretty remarkable in today's league. I think Gooden is a high character guy. It's too bad he didn't find a spot in next year's squad. I really like his post game. I thought he brought a good at ude, played hard, and wanted to win. That right there seems like a solid foundation to build on with ANY team, even if his IQ isn't as high as, uh, Theo Ratliff's.
Maybe the Spurs kept away from him because of other issues we don't know about. His hip joints aren't great. Who knows.
I hope he goes to the East. Seems like Miami or Detroit could use him.
After thinking about it, I wouldn't be surprised at all if he goes to the Bucks. They could use some sort of life on their team, not to mention post scoring. He could sign a cheap deal there to show off his skills, hopefully earning a bigger contract somewhere else after next year. I'd love him for the minimum on the Spurs, though, but the frontcourt is in overload mode right now.
Bucks aren't spending money. Cavs already signed Moon. And Detroit only has the veteran minimum. He's going to Dallas.
To Be honest With you, I Hope He does...... Because We all Know he cannot Cover Tim Or even Dice....... Please Dallas sign Him!!
Careful what you wish for.
Drew is a good player. He'd fit in well in Dallas. A good fit for him if he goes there. Yes the mid-level may be a bit much for Gooden, but he's pretty cheap when you compare him to what the Mavs are paying Kidd and Dampier.
I'm thinking we're not going to have problems with the Bucks anymore. At least not next year!
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dallas or Phoenix
Word. He's a class act. Let's respect him. After everything he went through with our team, he still had the decency to thank SA.
maybe he would go to dallas

Oh, I like Drew as a person and a locker room guy. I just don't like him on the floor without the ball in his hands, which would be most of the time here. It seems to honestly escape him that at any one time, there are nine guys on the floor without the ball, and one with, and the one that has the ball isn't the only one doing anything.
Yup, never said anything about his playing skills or whatnot. It's just how well he handled the situation. But personally, to be fair to him, he was just thrown into the mix then suddenly pulled out. Hard to completely blame him for playing the way he did but I still think he played better than let's say Bonner who is still actually in our roster.Other teams would be lucky to get a big man of his caliber even if his bball IQ isn't that good.
Dallas here I come!!!
