    Not a hostage situation when no one wants to pay the price

  2. benevenstancian0

    I get what he’s saying but bro is getting paid $19m. That *might* have something to do with the lack of movement.

  3. slickrickiii

    Yeah Evan I’m not sure that you’ll find many sympathizers here

  4. Wolf-Cop

    Honestly if he’s that pressed he should buy himself out of the contract or learn to play some D

  5. teknomatic

    If being a hostage means not having to do anything at work and still getting paid 19 mil, then I wish my company held me hostage

  6. bailaoban

    Does he think the FO has a buyer out there that they’re just sitting on for the heck of it?

  7. PK-Baha

    Someone should ask him if he is willing to waive his contract to be a free agent.

    Wonder what he says then?

    Inevitable that he would comment again with the season approaching. If he didn’t have a team option for 24-25, we’d have already traded him for an equivalent expiring salary. But the team option means we can use him in trades next off-season. Money aside, I do feel bad for Fournier, who is wasting away on our bench right now.

    Would Blazers do Ev4 + 1st for Jrue?

    edit: nvm salary don’t work. I’d like to have me Jrue and Thibs would nut every game for his defense.

    Bro being paid 19mil to sit court side for Knicks games I wish I was being held hostage

  12. babyshmuel

    Fournier gotta accept he’s dogshit already. Make the occasional 3 and nothing else. Fuck em.

    **He’s gonna be a GREAT trade chip for some squad looking for an expiring when they decide to tank this year….**

  14. Stonedinthewoodz

    Bro you can take me hostage any day if that means living in NYC and making 19 million a year……come get my ass.

  15. ShawshankException

    If Evan doesn’t want to take up a seat on the bench for $19m I’ll gladly volunteer to be in his place

  16. millagger

    Last year of this fucker on the Knicks

  17. Doc-Spock

    Does it still count as being a hostage when the ones holding the hostage doesn’t want the hostage?

  18. BeachCruisin22

    Come on Ev, stop it. If you want something to happen, get better.

  19. charlesfluidsmith

    I don’t believe Fournier said he was being held hostage.

    This is the journalist creating a sensational headline, to get you fuckers that don’t read, amped up.

    There’s something called an article. And there is something called primary sources.

    You aren’t doing anything but scrolling the internet anyway, use your time productively.

    We need his expiring contract for salary matching in trades. We will probably hold him hostage until the deadline. Better start practicing your supportive bench claps buddy

    I get what he’s saying. Yes he’s getting paid $19M per year, but he’s still in the prime of his career (30 years old). He wants to play and get another contract like all players. Sitting one full season has diminished his value around the league. If he sits another season his career will likely be over in the NBA.

  22. TheSasukeDive

    Someone would have to want him first.

  23. iggyboyyyy

    Wait til the trade deadline broo. Stay in France if you must lol
