Bluedude Sportstalk SPORTS SHORTS Take 116...#WARRIORSground BIEDRINS Opts In and look at the DOUGH!...Young BAYLESS stays with Grind House..CHAMPS 305 picks ups Regular MARIO's Team Option...mikeCATS Shooting Guard BG7 picks up that large BAD CHECK from JORDAN and the Gang ...#NBA2K13FreeAgentDealings

Teams do it all the time and of course as a player you would hope if your not on the Marque but paid like you belong on the Marquee so be it. There is that dreaded Team Option which players hate and then there is Player option that for a former Starter turned B-Team...it comes with much joy. 2013 NBA Free Agency is filled with both as some are formalities, some are even key decisions, and for some players it's winning the Lottery without buying a damn ticket..Imagine that Logo Heads!

Planet Oracle Biz has reported that back-up Center Andris Biedrins (who last played when GSW had B-Diddy & Cap'N Jack & Matt Barnes & J-Rich) is opting in to keep his 2013-14 Salary to no surprise. The surprise is who gave him a back-loaded deal that will pay Biedrins $9 million. That was of course the old GSW regime...that is not good as GSW's small forward Richard Jefferson the Artist formerly known as R.J. in the Meadowlands Arena for the J-Kidd led Nets opted in for just over $11 million. That's why they call it #DUBnation as there are a whole lot of Andrew Jackson's wasting.

The Grind House Grizz picked up reinforcement specialist Shooting Guard Jerryd Bayless Option for just over $3 million as Grizz Starter Tony Allen has played himself into a bigger deal he won't get from the Grizz moving forward.

Mario Chalmers commonly referred as "Regular Mario" has his Tab picked up by the Heat and Prez Riley for  $4 million. Chalmers is a real good fit for the Heat and their Scheme as he is knocking down more and more Money Balls and believe it or not is "Clutch" and has been "Clutch" for some time (see 2008 Final Four vs Memphis a game-tying Money Ball to send Tigers vs Jayhawks into Extras).      

Another Bad Check in the Queen City, North Carolina as the mikeCATS get bad news but they have only to blame but themselves. Former UConn and Bulls under-sized Shooting Guard Ben Gordon picks up a whopping $13 million plus Player Option and the Bluedude needs his agent ASAP. If anything the disgruntled shooting guard can watch his Dead President's pile up in 2013-14 and I mean big time!
