I hadn't considered movement amount, but thinking about it, yeah, there's tons less standing around in basketball these days, particularly amongst the more progressive systems.

its funny cause a lot of it can be traced back to thibodeau and he plays his players too many minutes and his best player is chronically injured

"He doesn't want to play basketball anymore," a league source told Yahoo Sports.The Cavaliers believe Bynum has been a "disruptive" presence within the team and have lost hope the partnership can be salvaged, sources said. Bynum often expressed a lack of desire to play and practice and was convinced by the Cavaliers not to quit previously, sources said.

From most angles that was a pretty well-executed flop. Tim's elbow probably did brush his nose ever so slightly.

BTW, list of non-guaranteeds who could be cut in the next week:
Atlanta: Shelvin Mack, Cartier Martin, Mike Scott Boston: None Brooklyn: None Charlotte: Jeff Adrien, Chris Douglas-Roberts Chicago: D.J. Augustin, Eric Murphy Cleveland: Andrew Bynum, Matt Dellavedova, C.J. Miles, Henry Sims Dallas: None Denver: Quincy Miller Detroit: Josh Harrellson, Peyton Siva Golden State: Hilton Armstrong, Kent Bazemore Houston: Patrick Beverley, Greg Smith Indiana: Rasual Butler L.A. Clippers: Stephen Jackson, Maalik Wayns L.A. Lakers: Xavier Henry, Ryan Kelly, Kendall Marshall, Shawne Williams Memphis: Seth Curry, James Johnson Miami: Michael Beasley, Roger Mason Jr. Milwaukee: None Minnesota: Robbie Hummel New Orleans: Lou Amundson New York: Cole Aldrich, Toure' Murry Oklahoma City: Ryan Gomes, Hasheem Thabeet Orlando: Solomon Jones, Hedo Turkoglu Philadelphia: James Anderson, Lorenzo Brown, Brandon Davies, Daniel Orton, Hollis Thompson, Elliot Williams Phoenix: Dionte Christmas Portland: None Sacramento: Hamady N'diaye San Antonio: Malcolm Thomas Toronto: Julyan Stone Utah: Ian Clark, Diante Garrett, Mike Harris Washington: None
Funny enough, from Stein's piece on them yesterday: "The list of players technically at risk includes some who face zero chance of getting snipped; Andrew Bynum, Patrick Beverley and Michael Beasley jump off the page in terms of vets who have noting to fret about."

Bynum signed a two-year contract for $24.8 million with the Cavs, but only $6 million of it is guaranteed before Jan. 7. After that date, the full $12.25 million this season is guaranteed. Next season's $12.5 million is not guaranteed until July 10.In short, there is no other contract like this in the NBA at the moment. Not only has Bynum proved in spurts this season that he can be effective, but the Cavs also signed him to a contract that gives them or any team that trades for him lots of flexibility. He can be an instant money saver if the Cavs or a team that trades for him waives him before Jan. 7. He can be a rental for the rest of the season. Or he can be a trade chip heading into the draft and next summer because he can act as a salary purge option.
