Thanks, IC, for your insight. I don't know where people are jumping to the conclusion that he is acting "spoiled", causing problems and/or not putting in the work to help this team. Morey and CD have both publicly stated (on SportsRadio 610) recently that Bonzi has been great in terms of attitude and work ethic. I know CD said he has been putting in extra work to get back quicker. Is he probably frustrated that he isn't playing yet? Probably, but by all accounts it was a mutual decision to have him stop playing games and continue to get back to full shape. The guy had a groin injury at the end of last season and never played an inch of basketball until training camp in which he had a few set backs. It takes take time to not only shake off the rust but get in REAL basketball game shape. He'll be back soon and we'll all look back at all this and laugh at how little a speed bump it was and be excited about how well he plays for the team. While everyone was extra giddy about the Rockets trying to sign him, I was concerned about it based on his past run-ins with coaches and players, but I haven't seen or heard anything so far that would make be believe he is a bust or should be discarded yet.
Have some patience. Bonzi will fight for his contract at the playoff time. He's paid to just do that.
