At the same time his agent has to be a complete idiot, or the Bucks had something legally on Sanders that they dangled out so Larry would accept a buyout. NBA contracts are guaranteed. Simply show up and you get your $44 million regardless of whether you actually do anything worth it or not.
That's what you get for deciding to build a franchise around a guy who wasn't even welcome back to VCU had he wanted to return. He had already shown plenty of signs of trouble and to be honest wasn't even a very good basketball player. Good defender and rebounder who was somewhat effective because he was just active. But a complete punk. Sorry, you don't pay that guy $44 million. Heck, even if he was an angel his play never warranted $44 million.
No offense to Juan, but it'd be like Marquette having decided 2 years ago to build the program around Juan, but adding in that Juan's attitude was that of Delgado from Seton Hall.
