    most of rui's shortcomings aren't really in handy's wheelhouse. the stuff that is i do think improved some. his shooting and ballhandling--particularly some of his footwork when he got within 10-12 feet has improved since he got here, imo.

    but handy isn't responsible for his awareness on defense and with respect to the boards.

    See Handy put on a few lbs and wearing the knee brace as he got older, I'd "guess" that once he was let go he decided the grind of being out there on floor day to day demonstrating physical stuff wasn't something he wanted to do anymore? Either that or .... really no other teams had any interest? Maybe at what he wanted to be paid?
