I am not going to pass judgement on wells or jvg, all I can say is that there are 3 sides to every story. JVG Side, Wells side and the truth. Since none of us were in the locker room, practice or any other time with these two we will never know the real story. T_Man
The guy is one ungrateful rich sob. Seeing this kinda of people in NBA is sicking. Beside bb, what else can he do? He shouldn't takes things for granted, not many people have the chance to get paid millions to play bb.
Sounds to me like Bonzi crumbled and is afraid of Van Gundy. I was really hoping that he would fit in here, but he has turned out to be worse than Stro was last year...O well, atleast it didnt cost us much.
I was shocked when I heard bill worrel say" it is a shame that a player in the league like Bonzi can not make a drop pass to YAo" in the last game when the entire team could not do it either. Why are they picking on him?"
Bonzi may not be the best person in the world but I think part of the blame is on JVG. The way he refuse to play bench players, does harm their confidence.
Smack Van Gundy in the face? Bonzi couldn't even face JVG and tell him he didn't want to play anymore. He called the trainer on the phone and asked him to tell the coach. That's bush league.
Bonzi is doing the right thing by shaking it up a little before the playoffs... I can see JVG already *The f is Bonzi up to?! I have to think this thoroughly...* oh ****, I just thought about this... last night Span wasn't even on the bench, this is it boys, Bonzi wants Span to feel comfortable on the bench, he does not want Span to feel as an outsider... that's all it is...
"I don't know what the situation is," Tracy McGrady said. "Obviously, it has to be something really bothering him to put himself in that situation to take himself out. I don't know. I haven't talked to him. I don't think he's talked to anybody. ...Man, Mac's recruiting skills are taking a NOSEDIVE. No one's going to want to sign with us. :/
One thing I worry about with JVG... It seems he's so strict about who gets minutes and in to his rotation that unproven new guys play scared when they actually see the floor.... Happened with Stro, Bonzi, VSpan, and Novak. I worry that this could have a bad effect on younger players.
IMO Bonzi's problem is that he has sulked all year long thinking what if about the Kings' offer to him last offseason (4 years, $39 million). He turned it down thinking he'd get more and didn't, the Kings moved on and he had to settle for the Rockets pocket change and as a result never gave it his all which quickly soured his relationship with JVG. Its a lost opportunity for both parties because Bonzi's ability to score could've helped the Rockets tremendously and Bonzi could've shown the ability to be a third scorer on a playoff team rather than a scorer on a losing team.
They aren't kids, they are "pro". If they get scare just by that, then they shouldn't be in the NBA or just gonna end up as a scrub for life.
I knew that last interview sounded too nice. It was almost like he paid someone to hypnotize him until he was done with the interview.
Damn,where is Jack Bauer?I need get him get on this case,NOW! Seriously though,I hope we will find out the truth soon.I hope he is ok,but it seems there is no way he helps us in the playoffs.
I thought that was his agent's decision, which he later fired? I could be mistaking him for someone else.. Anyways, I think everyone has had enough with this cow schitt. I guess he was too good to be true from the very beginning. What baffles me is that how come there is still more Rafer and JVG hate threads rather than Bonz hate thread. He clearly deserves it more. Even though Rafer is stinking it with his floaters on most nights, at least the kid is giving it his all.
