He had a multimillion dollar contract. If he didn't like the coach he should have asked to be traded. If he was verbally abused by Carlesimo he should have filed a grievance. You don't assault your coach. You don't assault anyone.
Dumbness seems to be contagious.
The people coming out to defend Sprewell have obviously caught the dumbness bug. San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown said to reporters,''Maybe the coach deserved choking,'' We all knew dumbness was contagious in San Francisco but now it has effected the city officials. Thank you Mayor Brown for telling America's children violence is the answer. If you don't like what another says assault him. The NBA is a monopoly that's denying him his ability to work for a year.
