I understand your reaction (at least I think I'm interpreting your Emoji correctly), but know that Larry Sanders is a nut bag of enormous proportions. He is talented, when he wants to show it, and when he wants to work at it...but, that is not always the case. It might not "usually" be the case.
He can be a real distraction. Disorderly conduct, two drug suspensions, heart not in it (after cashing big checks of course), depression, animal cruelty charges, multiple psychological disorders. The guy would be a rim protector, but he makes the NFL's Ricky Williams look like a choir boy.
So don't be so quick with the cute Emoji. This guy can help the team if he is there physically and mentally; or, he can distract it in a major way. That a risk that can't be taken lightly.
