Rodney Hood Refuses to Enter Game in Garbage Time

I can't imagine being a guy who refuses to enter a game can do anything positive for his career.
 
I feel bad for Hood. He is a really nice guy. hope he finds a place in offseason. maybe orlando?

Hood is virtually worthless. Poor outside shooter. Never saw a decent box score from this guy while playing for the Cavs. There's a reason they sent him in to mop up in garbage time.
 
What a strange turn of events.

Many many times we've seen players excel or do better here than their next team(s).

Hood needs to play for a loser, get big minutes, and feel like "the guy". Of course in jeans half of the time.
 
Dumb, the trade to Cleveland cost him millions.

And it could end him up behind the bench - Cleveland may opt for size against Boston and dress Perkins.
 
He wants to be a starter because starters get paid more. In Cleveland I think most people thought he would be better than JR, who had looked like garbage all season. I dont think its as much about being the primary guy as just having that distinction of being a NBA starter.

Cedi played over him... guessing that was the final straw

Probably. I think it was also a matter of addition by subtraction for us in the end. We lost Hayward and Hood, but got the emergence of DM and I will take Crowder over Hood any day of the week. Even if Habitat for Humanity wants Jae due to the number of bricks he can put down, he still helps this time in other ways. And I do think his shot selection is fixable.
