    I don't see what Wesley is pissed at. Has anyone seen the JVG quote in question? The Chronicle posted it here:

    http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/sports/bk/bkn/3471494.html

    There isn't anything wrong with what he said here. Except for maybe this bizarre notion, that if someone isn't playing well off the bench we should give him the starting spot. :confused:

    Well it did seem to work, Wes played his best game of the season, so whatever.

    Makes perfect sense if you were JVG. As matter of fact, I called that Gundy's going to start DW before yesterday's game in another thread.

    Interpretation: DA is sucking hard, so Wesley is going to start in his place. What do we have to lose?


    :p

    I agree DW is a better fit with our starting unit because his hustle/toughness will provide some energy out there to make sure the team doesn't start the game off slow and be lethargic on defense.

    DW works as a starter, and I just wish that JVG would tell Alston to drive the ball inside aggressively like he did at times in Toronto.

    i've been supportive of Wesley, but the fact is that he's played horrible this year aside from last game. coming off knees surgery is a huge deal and i think it's expected that he'd have a rough start.

    Time for the real men and leaderrs to step up! Sorry Wesley, but it is true...you have played really horrible and except for the Pistons game, you have, for the most part, hurt the team. Face it and buck up to it! If you want good things said about you, then you need to play a whole lot better...you know like an effective NBA veteran of 12 plus years. If you can't, then quit being an over-paid, whining baby and get out of the way so Head can take up your minutes. I have no patience with your continuous lack of contributing and neither should JVG!
