If that were the case he'd be a Pacer.

Probably, but maybe he wants an environment change. He had issues with some of his Pacer teammates and that may have dissuaded him from resigning.

They really seemed to throw him under the bus during the ECF. Even Paul George stated "I don't know" when asked if he wanted Lance to return.

No more cap space available. Pau and Mirotic swallowed up the Stephenson money.

Or just give Tony Snell more playing time:shrug: Starting to think that is the plan which I am OK with. Looking good in Summer League so far, I think he can be just as good if not BETTER!

not sure how it would be funny

a rejuvenated/motivated Gordon on a cheap deal would be a good get considering we are weak at 2/3

if you dont think so then go head name names of players we could get that would be better

My favorite teams
  1. Chicago Cubs
  1. Minnesota United FC
  1. Chicago Bulls
  1. Chicago Bears
  1. Chicago Blackhawks
  1. Notre Dame Fighting Irish
Pau Gasol makes $7.3M a year
Luol Deng makes $10M next year
Ben Gordon will make $4.5M next year after playing in only 19 games

Ben Gordon isn't on a cheap deal though. I'd pay the guy only the absolute vet minimum, he got a lot more than that.

i know he got overpayed...thats why i said i hate the Magic (for doing it)

the market for wings was inflated this offseason

i thought Gordon would have got about 2-3m at the most...and that would be from lower tier teams and he would actually take a bit less to play of a winner

There's a few problems with Lance. He's wanting more than he should probably get, has problems with his own teammates, and you'll have a meme of him blowing on various objects after every game.

As long as the price isn't outlandish, the risk with Stephenson is worth the reward. The risk is he might be a jerk and not mesh well with his teammates. The reward is a run at a championship.

Juice, meet squeeze.

Look at the bright side. It'll take the focus off of Derrick.

(Imagines endless memes of Stephenson blowing on Rose and Rose falling over, grabbing his knee. Shudders.)

Agreed. He's worth 9 a year. Guys, if he was on this team, the Bulls might be favorites in the East. They almost are now anyway. We missed out.

That said, I'm glad he's out of Indiana
