And apparently you don't know much about Cassell's character. His personality was well publicized in Milwaukie and New Jersey. It's just been kept under wraps in Minnesota because they were so successful- kinda like the Kobe bitch-fest that only came out when they started losing. This report could not be swept under the rug, though and the small pieces of evidence will come out no matter how well he tries.
Wow, he "disrupted" training camp so much that he missed media day.. without a doubt the most important event of the entire season. He missed what? One practice? And all reports now are saying he's back and everyone's glad to see him, no hurt feelings.

You just HAVE to invent problems with every player that isn't in a Mavs uniform. Cassell has been a model citizen since he got traded to the Wolves and was a big reason they finished so well last year (read: they had a better season than Dallas). He's worth more than 7mil a year, at any age, because he was EASILY a top 2 or 3 point guard for the entirety of the last season.

Give the guy a fucking break.. he isn't Satan incarnate just because he's a great player NOT in a Dallas uniform.
