Lol...well, that didn't take long.
He was doing the same sort of stuff in BKN after all.

I remember reading a lot of his comments last season. He doesn't bite his tongue at all. The media is going to love him and Hump because they give honest answers without trying to be politically correct.

They'll give inflammatory quotes to write articles around when there isn't anything to talk about.

I could easily see Wallace being very critical of Stevens and Ainge in public if it looks like the Celtics are handing out playing time in what looks like a tank job rather than rewarding players who play hard.  I'd love to see him go ballistic if it looks like personnel decisions are being made to maximize losses.

I can understand being upset about losses and effort , but it's freaking preseason ! Couldn't he at least wait until after a few regular season games?

I can definitely see that too. He did last yr w/ Carlesimo on his lack of a defined role on the team. He will be the go to person for quotes for the media.
