Nets Waive Keyon Dooling

My “sources” “tell” me that LeBron doesn’t like Keyoun at all, so the Nets had to make this move. Note: I have no sources: “The Nets announced today they have requested waivers on guard Keyon Dooling, a move that will open up even more cap space for the Nets by erasing the guard’s $3.8 million salary from the team’s payroll. By declining Dooling’s team option for the coming season, the Nets have to pay him just $500,000. The Nets’ aim leading up to Thursday, when NBA free agency begins, is to free up money to spend and allow for flexibility in signing members of the bumper crop of NBA free agents this offseason … In two seasons with New Jersey, Dooling appeared in 130 games, averaging 8.6 ppg, 1.6 rpg and 3.1 apg.”

    in other news: if Thorn stays on there’s a small chance he’ll bring back Dooling some weeks from now. They love him for his energy and veteran leadership, so we’ll see what happens.

    So teams are releasing guys that Bron dosent like, in hopes of landing him? Wow!! Remember when the bulls and cavs played and Bron was @ his bench dancing, and Noah had a few things to shout at him?? Wonder if Noah has said hes sorry for that, and he can dance like an idiot all he wants??

    Im starting to not like LeBron a little bit moe and more everyday.. Dont get me wrong, its not a rivalry thing (Im on west coast, so he only beats my team 2wice per year). He is a great player, perhaps the greatest all around player since Mike, but this guy’s ego is getting out of hand. He really thinks his $h!t dont stink.. He doesnt get in trouble off court, so hes probably a good role model for the kids, Ill give him that. But its crazy to think Kobe is more humble then this guy!

    BossTerry, I’m pretty certain the bit about LeBron not liking Keyon was a joke. It’s a shame they let him go though, as he was a decent bench player. Hope he gets picked up somewhere.

    @Mansonovic.. Guess I took it seriously, and your right, Dooling can help most teams as a back-up..
