Ben called his agent on that, agent responds, "Oh yeah, I meant to call and let you know there was a mistake in the contract".
From that I got the impression that Ben was not too slow on the uptake. It was only after the, miscommunication, that he fired his agent.

That’s the same story I read. I don’t know where this picture of Wallace as some Neanderthal came from.
As far as the story, I don’t know how you don’t suspend a player who refuses to enter a game. Saunders and Dumars dropped the ball here and it may eventually come back to bite them in the ass.
Lastly, if I ever screw up so badly that it makes the paper, I want this guy writing the story.
