Just saw on ESPN that he and the Nets are agreeing to a buyout. He will meet with the Clippers and the Cavs and there are other interested parties. So in spite of everything... career is not over. Putting aside my thoughts on his behavior since the meltdown in Philly a guy that can guard any wing is solid value for a minimum contract. He can't be on the floor if you need a basket with the game on the line but he can be a back-up point guard on offense as well as a defensive stopper. I can see why Cleveland would want him.

Sweepstakes :lol

It does sound crazy but apparently teams are competing for his services. A team that sees a guy as the missing piece will ignore a lot of garbage.

Still a plus defender and one of the best passers in the league

I believe he can be a positive addition to a title contender on a minimum contract off the bench

He will look a lot better as a minimum contract role player than a max non star

The Cavs and Clippers I heard are involved as frontrunners and he's meeting with both of them. I really hope the Cavs don't get him. Not sure the value of a player who is a shell of his former self, that blows point blank layups and will literally pass on open 15 footers.

Minimum contract hahaha oh how the mighty (you boy) has fallen. He washed up. He’s literally a role player. Expected to give you 8pts 6rb 5ast. You probably got all excited reading that stat line. You’re not used to productive players, all nba talent. Who are the nets going to draft next in the 2025 draft? Or you gonna f*ck that up too? You was so high on HasBen Simmons. Now he a buyout player at age 28. Yikes
