Eddie Griffin (Mr. I jack off to porn in my car, while drunk) and Gin (yes, I know it says Gin) Baker... what a great combo. Then you factor in Stonehands/No passion (Blount)... what a great big man rotation. Way to set a good example for the young guys! Griffin - jack off/drunk/porn while driving; underachiever Baker - alcohol problems, and then he signs to a team with Griffin on it Blount - plays for nothing but the money James - whiney, demands the ball Ricky D - demands the ball McCants - work ethic has been questioned KG, I feel for you man...
I actually think Daniel Santiago will beat out Vin Baker in training camp. He seems hungry to win a spot in the NBA, foregoing a multi-year contract in Europe and looked decent in the World Championships(for Puerto Rico).
