    His contract can be used for matching salaries. I'm guessing we'd be sending out a draft pick? That's if it's even a trade. Could just be that injured player exception.

    His contract has value, no point in doing that.

    Probably not, guess I just find it hard to believe that they already have some fresh trade in the wings and already told him about it.

    Now quick is saying he'll rejoin the team after the trip? What the fuck? Was there an argument?

    I read something earlier that said ezeli disliked how the media portrayed him in the chris haynes piece. He apparently really disliked that. I would think it has something to do with that

    And yet we had people defending Plumlee in this thread. He lost this game by continually cheating off his man and not staying home.

    I'd be surprised if it had anything to do with the media. Come on.

    Not sure why some of you even bother with Quick. Kerry Eggers, that's who to pay attention to.

    Ok here are some guesses

    1. He's being traded
    2. He's retiring
    3. He asked for a trade
    4. Had some sort of argument
    5. Season ending surgery (although that's evidently not the case)
