I suppose I can't really blame the guy...how many of us wouldn't? I just don't think it's right, and I think contracts should be legally binding. If you suck, so what, you signed a contract...if you kick ass, so what, you signed a contract.

It's pretty standard now a days in these 6 year deals for there to be a team option and a player option to terminate the contract. They can't be on the same year though.

I don't know the specifics of this deal, but I'm sure the Wizards had to give on a few things considering that GA was a restricted free agent and they couldn't let the Warriors match.

if he is getting out of it due to an actual out clause option, then I take back my comments...he would be within his contractual rights, and I'm ok with that.

Maybe I'll announce that I'm opting out of my deal after next season. Hey, I hear hailredskins.com is looking for a new mod

Or maybe I'll just spit some rhymes

Hey, it's just business. I'm opting out so I can stay, not so I can leave.

Do you think if Gibert opts out, that he will stay?

I think he will. He said it too a couple times, that he wants to remain a Wizard.
