The guy has proven to be one the best 6th men for the past 3 years. Why hasnt any team claimed him?
Why isnt Earl Boykins playing in the League?

Dude isn't worth the money, especially when he's a liability defensively.

known as a ball hog, and wants more money than teams are willing to pay him.

He's just not that good. He's a liability on both sides of the ball. He has his moments and can have some really good stretches of time, but he'snot someone who you can really count on to play well enough all the time.

Basically he wants a teams mid-level exception (about $5 million I think) and nobody is willing to pay that...

I know it sounds weird, but I have a lot of respect for little earl. I wish he was still in Denver. Yes he was more offense than anything else, but it wasamazing watching a 5'5" guard drop 30+ on a team. Earl isn't playing right now because he wanted a stable long term deal with a team. He's 31now, so he wants to get himself in a good position before he retires. With that said, I don't know if I would have turned down the 3 million dollar optionfrom the bucks. Especially after seeing all those gary coleman ebay auctions.
If players got paid based on heart over hype, he could have his choice of Nenes or K marts oversized contracts.

Him and A.I. were a comedic tandem. it was hilarious how these dudes would chuck shot after shot.
But yeah, he's a liability on the defensive side of the ball, his confidence in his skills is a gift and a curse. The curse being, he thinks he's anumber option out there.

a team needing instant offense should sign him....miami could use him to play in short stretches.

He wants more guaranteed years than any team will offer. Teams will pay him 3 mil a season, they just won't commit to anything more than 1 season.
