I think what happened to him is that he has already mentally moved on. He knows he is going to get bought out so what does he care? Hes probably tired of Torts on top of it.

Either way, he gets paid.

Once Torts is gone, i believe Richards will be back to normal. They will not buy him out this year, but if he has another bad year then he will be bought out.
I think they have to buy him out this year or there is no other option? I'm going to have to plead ignorance on the intricacies of the new CBA but I thought the amnesty buyout period was this summer and thats it?
