Why negotiate a buyout when you can waive him and pay full price?

WTF, why not send him home ala Tim Thomas and see what you get at the trade deadline? MAKES NO SENSE.

Mo Taylor would be bad for team chemistry, and a bad influence in general because he doesn't believe Larry Brown is solely responsible for last years debacle. He feels the players should also bear some of the responsibility.

We don't need guys like that on our team.

b/c I don't trust Isiah and expiring contracts. I could care less if this was a buyout or a waive. He still would have been on the cap no matter what, so this is a place where you can say "It's not my money, it's Dolan's."

If Taylor was gonna be flat out waived then it should have been done sooner.

Anyway. Roster spot is open. Now what? Is Paul miller really worthy of that spot?

Can someone remind me about that BS about the value of expiring contracts again that Isiah kept spewing?

Or the part about stockpiling assets to make trades? Or was that part of the same BS?

So what was the point of getting Mo in the first place? What part of the Plan was this? Hell, I'll settle for somebody explaining WHICH PLAN it was a part of.

Isles, I can't explain it. If this is what he ultimately did with Taylor then he should have let baker and moochie walk long time ago and not even done the trade.

I guess he is comfortable with what he has and just wants to make room on the roster.

Isiah is the only GM in this league with that luxury and he still manages to put together 30win teams

So true Isles. Where are all the Isiah-ites right now? Shouldn't this be a big deal since you all made a big deal about Larry Brown lying to the fans? Why doesn't the shoe fit here?

Because Isiah said that he would lie to anybody if it suit his needs. That apparently makes it ok.

I was a person who manned-up. I actually liked the trade, I thought Mo was a good player, I didn't like the fact that we dealt draft-picks but I thought bringing him in was a good idea. It was a trade that didn't really work out but the mere fact that Isiah had the propoganda machine working the day he made the deal and now does a complete 180 from that propoganda is the funniest part to me. I don't see any of the Isiah-ites saying anything about that, thats for sure.
