    Didn't they trade him to us? I thought if a player was on a team like he was they gave him an honorary ring.

    You know what, I think I am wrong for the first time ever. You always see guys come back for ring ceremonies, but that's when they left in the offseason and were there for the finals huh? Never mind, as you were!

    Not in cash at least. I've heard through the grapevine that he pays up in other ways.

    I'm not sure how it's done in the NBA. I know that that is how it works in MLB. In 2010, Bengie Molina started the season with the Giants but ended the season with the Texas Rangers. Those two teams then met in the World Series and even though Texas lost (yay!!!), Molina got a ring because he had been a Giant for part of the season. That said, I hope Varajeo gets a big fat nothing either way. He's a punk......

    He did the Blazers a future 1st round pick. That's what they are paying for. What do they get from paying you?

    It is up to the team if he chooses to give a traded player a ring. Being that Gilbert is kind of an ass, it is farm from guaranteed.

    Yeah, he wouldn't even crack the starting line up of the They-were-Blazers-but-they weren't team. He'd be backing up Moses.
