    Can we do a sign and trade for whatever team Freeland played on for Meyers?

    Good luck to Joel. I hope he makes it back to the NBA.

    "Two years in Euroleague" my ass. Two years on the injury list more like. I liked the one productive year we got out of Freeland, but that was the last productive year ANYONE got out of him. Shooting for the NBA shows some cheek. Maybe it's because nobody in Europe will give him anything because he never plays.

    I loved Freeland on our team. I agree with MM. Any way we can get him with the BAE? He plays defense without fouling, rebounds, and hits the midrange shot.

    I never understood why fans thought Freeland was a good midrange shooter. He's trash outside of 3 feet.

    I like big men who shoot close to the basket.

    He won't really be expected to play much in the NBA though, maybe that's his thinking.

    Because he was. Had a nice baseline jumper. That was his only offense.

    I could see him being a solid back up if he has improved. His game wasn't that far off from being on par with some back ups in the league.

    And never passed the eye test. I wish him the best but he never really did much here and was injured.

    Just because he's better than Butters...
