Raptors fans need to STOP with this unwarranted Wright love. Talk to any Hornets fan; this is standard fare for Wright. He's lazy, unmotivated, incredibly inconsistent and doesn't love basketball. He just happens to be tall and okay at it.
Send him back to Illinois. I don't want him here. Any player that refuses to sub into a game (without reasonable cause, anyway) has no place here.

Wright Apologizes for Refusing to Enter Game

Wright was disciplined, to the point where it raised eyebrows with some of his teammates quelling the idea that others could pull the same stunt without fear of retribution.

Thank you.
I love this part of the article:

I believe Triano was asked about why Wright was never put in and he answered the question. He didn't "call anyone out" he just answered a question.

Dorsey is a pro. He is the number one PF on my third string if I am the GM.

"Hey, rest of team, I know we're getting our asses kicked, but I'm really upset with my lack of playing time so I'm not going to participate in this game that you guys are losing so badly. I'm above sharing the pain because my needs are greater than the team's. So you guys finish this one out and I'll take a pass so I don't have to shoulder any of the responsibility for the loss. When the press are sh*tting all over you guys for this horrible game, I'll get no blame, because - whew - luckily, I had nothing to do with it. I have a different concept of team than you guys, that's all. I'm sure you'll understand."

the only way i can sum up this situation
Triano : says its to late to apologize
Wright : says cry me a river

anyone that thinks Jwright made a mistake but shouldnt be lit up by triano in the locker room and press then your not thinking correctly. how about this, the next time your boss gives you an asignment or task you refuse to do it. see how long you have your job... not going into the game was disrespectful to the entire organization IMO. im sure there is alot of games some players dont want to finishbecause it a blowout... who cares, finish it off and move on. bad move on Wrights part, its changes my perspective about him as a player, dont want him back.

Can't see why a head coach wouldn't talk to him and deal with it internally. Keep it out of the press and instead of damaging a young players reputation earn the players respect by dealing with it professionally.
