Ben Gordon and the typical greed of the NBA

6.4 Million Dollars for one season, 82 games, and no more strings attached.  What is the deal with this?  I mean, I am not a player thumper, but is this guy for real?  He is not worth that money anyhow.  I understand that the Bulls will offer this guy a ton of money, as evidenced by their qualifying offer, but he still found it to not be worthy.   I don't understand.  Why can this guy not offer us fans a reason?  Is the front office so jacked up that he wants to leave?  Does he think that he can make more money for a different team?  Huh?  I don't know, maybe this a** Clown thinks that he is better than anyone else wearing a Bulls uniform and thinks that he can pull off something great somewhere else.  I think the Bulls should put him as inactive for something silly like the NFL's physically unable to perform list like the Steelers did with Pro Bowler Casey Hampton.  This would send a message to the players like Gordon that think they are better than what they really are.  Heck, anyone with a lick of talent can chuck the ball 20-25 times a game and lead their team in scoring.  How about leading your team in leading Mr. Gordon.  Whatever?  I hope the Bulls bench him and put him in when they get their one or two games this season when they are leading by 25 with one minute remaining in the game.  It is time some of these athletes start respecting the game and not the money it pays.  After all, us fans will have to pay this jokers salary through increased ticket prices and what have you.  Best of luck Mr. Gordon, have fun on the bench or in Europe.  Either way, you are still nothing more than a ball chucker lucky enough to be blessed with the ability to play ball, to bad you missed the common sense train.

He is a single dimension ball player. No one wants to pay him what he thinks he is worth.He seems to be getting a lot of bad advice.
