E-mailin' regular Mark Freedman sends along this link on Dennis Rodman, who during his stint on a British reality TV show played three games in the English hoops league:
"My dream is to get back into the NBA on the back of these games - Portland and Toronto have offered me try-outs," said the former Chicago Bulls star.
"Do I even want to believe this?" asks Freedman. "Is this the last vestige of Robert Babcock?"
I seriously doubt this one, especially with The Lofters cancelled. But it does give me an easy segue into announcing that I'll be announcing the winnah of the Latrell Sprewell bobblehead in an hour or so. Stay tuned.
I really doubt Rodman's statement. Let's face it, Rodman isn't worth the effort anymore. Portland and Toronto aren't going anywhere these days. Why would they spend a roster spot on a 44 year old rebounder who's on the rebound when the Raptors could leave it open for the equally talented human jumping bean Pape Sow or the Blazers could leave it open for last link to the Jail Blazers, Rueben "Kobe Stopper" Patterson.

Why not. The raptors are going nowhere, he can add some excitment for fans. And teach the kids a thing or two.
