Noah taken to task by teammates

by commish on Jan 17, 2008 8:33 PM PST

Wow, this is some article from Yahoo Sports. Coach Boylan suspended Noah for one game for basically a lot of ego and attitude. But, the players insisted on a two game suspension.

Now I'm not saying Noah wouldn't have been of more help to us this year than Wright, but it seems he has issues and baggage. His college coach attributes it to "immaturity" and a desire to win; but this is decried by the team's obvious desire to send him a clear message to grow up.

It was apparantly

for tardiness to practice and an argument with one of Chicago's assistant coaches.

First Horford smacks Ford.
Second Noah gets suspended.
Third Brewer ___
Fourth Richard ___
Fifth Green ____

from the article

it was more than an argument and more like an aggressive verbal attack (my words and impression). But this doesn't usually happen in a "player's league" so thought it was worth posting.

oh. i didn't read the article

I just read on Chicago boards that it was an argument out of frustration and that everything's ok now between player and coach. Noah is just shocked he was held accoutable by his own players.

ben Wallace

I thought he got into an altercation of some sort with Ben Wallace. If so, bravo. Wallace has been stealing money from Chicago all year.

I agree...

the rumor was that Noah was pissed about Wallace joking around on the bench even though the bulls were getting their asses kicked.

more than once this week

Apparently, there are multiple incidents this past week:

not an isolated incident that can as easily be attributed merely to youthful competitiveness ...

I did hear...

...that Ben Wallace was one of the veterans who voted to force an additional suspension. Not the first time I've heard Noah and Wallace have been at odds.

My gut instinct has me going with Noah. Then again, so does my brain. Ben Wallace throwing around his veteran status is ridiculous. He made his career by maximizing his effort and working his ass off. Now he looks like he couldn't care less, so what damn use is he?
