Hassan Whiteside...?!
- Thread starter Darth Divac
- Start date
I'm actually quite happy to see Mr. Whiteside making strides and doing so well. I advocated drafting him, as I saw him at Marshall and thought he'd develop into a really good player. I obviously didn't expect it to take 5 years or travel the road it has, but today we saw the player some thought he could be. I really hope he is able to keep it going. I met him at the Roseville Galleria when he and DeMarcus were introduced as rookies and he really is a good kid. Like Chad Ford was quoted earlier in this thread, Hassan was a very overconfident kid that wasn't quite ready to perform at the level he is performing now. Good to see he has matured and worked so hard to improve.
Hassan Whiteside is like a rawer Andrew Bynum if Bynum could go bowling without his legs falling off
You would want to wash your hands from what the Magoofs did to him when he was with the Kings.
I remember that they released him way too soon, at the beginning of his 2nd or 3rd season, so that his contract wouldn't become guaranteed. The Magoofs saved themselves a whooping $1.0 million on his minimum contract.
Way to go Magoofs.
I don't think anyone else is still on the team from when he was there, except for DMC and JT, and JT is not going to help recruit his replacement.
But if he is still friendly with DMC, maybe DMC can convince him to return to the team that drafted him, this summer.
