That’s how stupid I think you are.But that $5.8 million contract next year with a player option the next may look tasty to somebody else.WILD THING – CUT! (EXPIRING CONTACT TRADE BAIT)No. 4 – Ben Wallace – 6′-9″ – C/FWe have you for two more years at $14 million/year, so I don’t think anyone is going to want to take you off our hands.  You have games here and there where you look like the defensive force you were in Detroit. Maybe the karma in Chicago put you in a funk, and you haven’t shaken it off yet.  But you need to.  You could play a huge role for the team if you can just get motivated and focus on what you do best, play defense and rebound.BIG BEN – KEEPNo. What were you thinking? You used to be one of my favorite players, but now you just gnaw and gnaw at me with each passing flop and turnover.It would not surprise me that you think they speak Spanish and not Portuguese in Brazil, and you are from Brazil. I personally get embarrassed when you do it, so imagine how Dan Gilbert, Danny Ferry, Mike Brown, LeBron, and everybody else feel.You may have had the most poorly thought out hold-out in the history of sports, too. It’s THAT BAD of a move.And the flopping continues to get worse and worse.

17 – Anderson Varejao – 6′-10″ – C/F Are you Brazilian or retarded? Seriously, if I see you try to drive the lane off the dribble one more time, I might bash my head through the kitchen cabinets. Not good for a shooter.Maybe you need a year to get accustomed to the team or maybe your gun is empty. You have a $13 million expiring contract, however.WALLY WORLD – CUT! (EXPIRING CONTACT TRADE BAIT) No. 12 – Billy Thomas – 6′-5″ – G You hit a three in the Playoffs against the Wizards but have bounced around the NBA for three years I haven’t seen anything to warrant keeping you around Maybe you’ll surprise me BILLY THOMAS – CUT!No. Your last three games against the Celtics: 3-8, 2-11, 0-3.The 0-3 tells me you were afraid to put the ball up, or your teammates were afraid to pass it to you.

Especially in game seven against Boston when you scored zero points Zero points. 20 – Eric Snow – 6′-3″ – G Kudos for being the hometown boy who came home to play. Kudos for playing through an injury, and I hope it doesn’t hinder your life after basketball.You do tons of stuff for the C-Town community, and I hope that continues. But, in the eyes of the Cut List, all you are is a $7.3 million expiring contract ERIC SNOW – CUT! (EXPIRING CONTACT TRADE BAIT)No 10 – Wally Szczerbiak – 6′-7″ – F You were a hired gun You fired blanks. You are going to be 33 next season, but I think bringing you back on a short term deal could be an asset.People often bash you for being a No. 1 overall pick, but you didn’t pick yourself.  You’re a solid vet, and this team could use a few of those JOE SMITH - KEEP No. I hope you are shipped out of here well before that.PAVLOVIC – CUT! (FOR MY HEALTH)No.

32 – Joe Smith – 6′-10″ – F You were an effective role player after the big trade, and you can actually hit a mid-range jump shot. Then you got hurt, probably because you weren’t in playing shape and floundered the entire season.Somehow you worked your way back into the rotation for the playoffs and were so awful that it was like watching a monkey try to (expletive deleted) a football.You have two years at $4.5 million left on your new contract. You actually started to “get it” last season and you showed flashes of breaking out.And then you held out You Sasha F’N Pavlovic. 19 and are ruining it for Bob Feller, Bernie Kosar, and Lenny Wilkins.AMON ONES – CUT! (EXPIRING CONTACT TRADE BAIT)No 27 – Dwayne Jones – 6′-11″ – C/FYou don’t play When you do, it’s uninspiring You don’t have a contract next season Do the math.DWAYNE JONES – CUT!No.
