Goodbye Travis

Well i guess this is good-bye. Im wondering why he would sign with a russian team.
BTW the source is written in Russian so you guys won't get it anyway

Its dissappointing to see that my man Sip Rogers aka Travis Best has to go over seas to find a basketball home to end his career. In my opinion, last year he proved that he can still produce, I can understand if a team doesnt want to make him their main backup, due to his age etc...and the fact his playing career is coming to a end. But he can easily be a factor as a teams third pg on the depth charts. A big part of me really wanted Best to return as a Net, instead of Jacque Vaughn, but I think we made the smarter decision between the two, once we signed McInnis. Vaughn is the nicer complement to what McInnis will bring to the table. But still sad to see Travis couldnt find one last stop in the NBA. Oh well, going over seas may add quite a few more years on Best's basketball career.

Ha! He's going to my native country; can't blame him for wanting to go there

The Russian league is not too bad, its improving...I sure hope that my fellow Russians don't rob him or anything there. You can kinda tell foreigners apart there (and foreigners usually have money). I am sure that the first thing that he is going to hire are some body guards there.

I wish him the best...and heck, if I ever catch a game with him, I'll definitly root for him.

That sucks that he's leaving, he could've been a good backup off the bench.
