Blazers send home Miles following inappropriate conduct
QUOTE |
Portland forward Darius Miles was sent home early after changing into his street clothes at halftime of Wednesday night's loss to the Los Angeles Clippers. The team did not characterize the move as a suspension, but said Thursday that unspecified disciplinary action was taken. The Blazers were at the Los Angeles Lakers on Friday night. |
These guys still get paid huge paychecks, there is really no excuse for it to happen. If I was on his team, I would be very angry since that shows a lack of support for your fellow team mates. It really doesn't matter if your season is over or not, its about pride and honor as an athlete!
I agree. Do what you are being paid for. It's not about whether you get into the post-season or not; someone has to win and someone has to lose.
