    The interview with him on nba.com tv was depressing. That boy works sooo hard and puts up buckets. He is truly being dissed by the league.

    Just watch nba tv. You could feel his pain. He was talking about if my nba career is 1 year contracts, then he's gonna do what he's gotta do.

    Basically said I want a team that just wants me. I want to feel like I'm wanted, not "ah we didn't get this guy so let's settle for Nate".

    Said he doesn't want to start. Just be a plug off the bench and be at practice early and give 100% all the way.

    Man if he came to Portland, I could see him be an instant fan favorite. The dude got a lot of heart

    I think rose coming back had something to do with it.

    He plays south bigger than his size though

    Apparently the front office had some interest but Thibs, the coach, is not interested.

    I just don't think we could do it with commitment to the other players. He would definitely be a huge upgrade on this bench

    The CHI coach is big on defense of course.

    Guys a nutjob. You see him being all loud and crazy on loading docks all over the NBA. I've heard players walk away from talking with him after games and talk about how much they can't stand his ass. When we were on the bus heading back to the hotel in Boston a couple seasons ago, he was zipping back and forth in his car around the team bus just acting like a fool!

    At 5-9 I guess you have to have your warp drive gene turned on permanently to survive in the NBA.

    Muggsy Bogues helped to sell out the Charlotte arena for years. Jordan should try to duplicate the old Hornets with Nate on the new Hornets.

    Why would you feel sorry for a guy, who in a 7-8 year career so far in the NBA, has seen multitudes more money than >80% of average joes will EVER see.
    Just because he feels left out?

    He can use a few $100 dollar bills to wipe away his tears I'm sure.

    Poor little dwarf.

    Why don't you pick on someone your own size?

    We already have a Nate Robinson. Only he's 6'5" and called Will Barton.
