Roger Mason Ejected from Wizards Game Because of a Technical Glitch

Roger Mason was able to play only a few minutes against the Bucks on Friday before being pulled from the game. His limited role wasn’t the result of injury or not being up to speed with the Wizards’ offense, however. Mason was ejected from the game because a paperwork glitch resulted in his name not appearing on the team’s 15-man roster, and thus he was not eligible...

D’Antoni To Roger Mason : Merry Xmas (And Who The Heck Are You?)

Yesterday marked the 2nd anniversary of G Roger Mason sinking a dramatic 3-pointer with seconds remaining against Phoenix to claim a victory for San Antonio, but it seems Knicks head coach Mike D’Antoni either cares little for history, sentiment or simply doesn’t remember who Mason is.  Or perhaps some combination of the 3?  In the aftermath of an awfully impressive defeat...

Knicks Will Sign Roger Mason Jr.

The New York Knicks were in the market for a shooter and are picking up Roger Mason Jr. Mason is coming off of a down year with the Spurs where he fell out of the rotation and performed poorly.Talk about a perfect fit for the Knicks. A guy who shots the ball from the outside and doesn't do a hell of a lot else. At the $1.4 million price tag, I love it. Mason should get more opportunities...

Free Agent Frenzy: Roger Mason Jr.

Could RMJ fit in with the Sixers? With the big named players coming off the board, the free agent period may be in a lull, but there are still viable options out there. One such example is Roger Mason Jr., who could provide the 76ers with a great shooter coming off of the bench. But does Philly even have a chance to land him?

Wizards’ Roger Mason Jr. ready for reunion with New York

Believing that he would have the opportunity to compete for a starting job and help spread the floor for all-star big man Amare Stoudemire, Roger Mason Jr. took about $300,000 less — not big money by NBA standards, but enough to affect a player of his stature — to sign with New York last season. But his experience with the Knicks fell well short of his expectations and left...

Can Mason bouncde back this year?

Unlike post “Can He Bounce Back?” posts, Roger Mason only really struggled in one area, three point shooting. However, that is much of Mason’s game. The bulk of Roger Mason’s shots always came from the three point line (over his career 51.4% of his shots came from behind the arc). Mason isn’t the most athletic guy, doesn’t have the best handle, and he isn’t the strongest...

Checking in on Roger Mason

Not sure which I find more funny, the fact that Chris Sheridan has Roger Mason Jr. listed as a power forward or the fact that Money Mase is shooting 1-13 with zero made threes. Honestly, I loved dude his first year with the Spurs, but ever since something has been horribly off with him.
