Rodney Hood Refuses to Enter Game in Garbage Time

I liked the Rodney Hood who showed up and won fourth quarters for us with incredible shooting. Everyone looks worse in Cleveland. Rodney would probably not be too thrilled about coming back to SLC a second time but if he was I would take him. He would just have a smaller role here. With the right attitude and a little more health and consistency he could be amazing here. If his market value is really low, then why not?

Rodney Hood
@ $22 million/year INSANITY (but that's what he was thinking last year)
@ $18 million/year DESPERATION
@ $15 million/year (Not sure anyone pays this in the current market)
@ $12 million/year Decent Value
@ $8 million/year STEAL!!!

Where does he fall given the last 12 months and given the lack of teams with $$$ to spend? I really don't have a clue.
The relationship is over...for good. It’s not happening.
 
People said that about Corbin in September of 1994 when we traded him for Captain Keefe. You know the rest of the story.

So he’s gonna coach us after Quin leaves... ****
 
If you think about it, Hood has to have had one of the highest of highs and lowest of lows last year a healthy guy can have in the NBA
 
i'm guessing he's been under a bunch of pressure at home to secure a big contract. Plus if his missus has had twins she's probably a little unhinged atm .. Don't forget so far he hasn't actually made much money
 
0% chance this was some calculated move.

For sure... just think maybe he’s being prickly to try and get them to bat make the QO.

Exactly why he should have taken whatever we offered within reason... his agent had to see the nuclear winter coming... I heard Will Barton was offered an extension at/above the MLE... basically the Josh Richardson Norman Powell contract and declined... these guys about to regret that real quick.

How would them not extending the QO help him in any form or shape? He can simply tell them he doesn't want to play for them, instead of trying to ruin his own career.
