The Bobcats just waived Ben Gordon, a day too late for him to be playoff eligible with another team.

[Big P]

Sucks for him, but at least he doesn't go to the clips, okc, or mia.

Ben Gordon: Poor player with bad at ude who pissed the of the Pistons and the Bobcats. Deserved worse.

Earl Clark released by the Knicks today while Shannon Brown is signed for the rest of the season. He must be absolutely terrible this season tbh.

[T Park]

Good for Shannon.

[poeticism707]

When does Kobe enroute to SA?!

[cd021]

Can Clark be signed and activated for the post season?

[exstatic]

Can Clark be signed and activated for the post season?

No. It's after 1 March, and he was on an NBA contract this season. He is ineligable for the post season.

[ABC]

^ Yeah.

From cbafaq (question 64):

• If a team requests waivers on a player after March 1 (March 23 in 2011-12), the player is ineligible to be included in the playoff roster of any team that subsequently acquires him.

I believe he is eligible for the playoffs. The Cavaliers waived him prior to March 1 and he cleared waivers. His subsequent contracts with the Knicks were 10-day contracts that have now ended. He wasn't waived by the Knicks. His contract simply expired. You can only request waivers on a player who still has a contract. If he is indeed eligible, he wouldn't be a bad piece for the rest of the season. He's athletic and can guard all three front-court positions. He has the ability to score as well. He would be a good insurance policy for the rest of the season and maybe earn an opportunity for next season.

LOL this thread still up at this point? We have what we have and that is enough IMO. Nobody is getting signed and buyout watch thread is RIP. Spurs are going with who they have and thats a damn good team, nobody is getting signed unless it is a late season T MAC type signing for insurance or just to ride the bench.
