No offense, but if you weren't a Celtic fan, I'd just assume you were trying to rile other Celtic fans up.
Yeah, on the one hand it says BBD will have to adjust back to 15 minutes per game after playing 35+ min per game in the playoffs, but then the article says that he knows no one has to tell him how to do his role. And, what's with omitting the quote where BBD says he has a chance to be part of something great, and where he acknowledges he has to roll with it?
And BBD also says that his playoff experience will have a lasting effect as far as letting him know what he can do.
At absolute worst, he sounds like Rondo as far as having a tough time with their roles. Other than that, I feel like you've taken BBD's supposed reputation as a whiner to perceive this article as BBD possibly taking the high road on the team, even though he really didn't say anything that was shockingly unprofessional. I'm supposed to get riled up over the fact he said going back to a limited role after having a taste of what he could do as a starter would be tough? I'd be surprised if he wasn't.
No offense taken and my goal is/was not to "rile up" anyone, what would be the purpose. The words weren't my observation, they came directly from Glen's mouth. Despite your impression of why I posted, I too have noticed a 'sullen' baby during the preseason games when the rest of the team were laughing and joking baby would be sitting there with the grim look on his face. I couldn't understand why until reading this article. Even during the Real Training episodes, baby wasn't baby. I simply stated his quotes. You, Nick and whomever else think this was posted to start trouble...well that's just your opinion isn't it. Just like it's my opinion that he could be trouble this year. By the way, I could care less about your emotions or whether or not you get riled up so that's beside the point. I don't know you to care that much about how YOU feel.
Look at my prior posts. I am not a Debbie Downer as 'some' are here, never have been but the writings on the wall (or in the Herald)Glen is not happy. You're telling me that him wishing he would have signed with another team is positive? What am I missing?
To the other poster that questioned whether or not I am a Baby fan...I LOVED Baby last year. Again, beside the point. This quote here stands out to me:
Asked if he had hoped for an offer from a team with a need for a starting power forward, Davis said, “Yup.” To ME this is not about him being a Celtic, this is about him being a STARTER! What do YOU get from this comment? The year we won it, it was ALL TEAM. Whatever your role was, it was. It was about one common goal. It's CLEAR that Glen's wishes were to go to a team where he could start, the Celtics weren't his first choice had he had one.
My motto is and will always be...Either you're with us or you're against us. Not saying he's not gonna play and do what he has to do, after all he has a CONTRACT to do that. But it's clear it's not in his heart. Disagree all you wish. Come back to this thread later on in the year when he starts to kick up dust.
