Well, Skiles and the organization are very strict. They do not tolerate basically anything. This goes for the Jazz and Magic organizations as well these days.
<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">The Chicago Bulls were without suspended Chris Duhon and injured Ben Wallace in the game against the San Antonio Spurs on Monday afternoon. Duhon was suspended for one game by the Bulls for missing practice on Sunday. Wallace missed his second straight game with a sore back. "I overslept and just got to deal with the consequences," Duhon said. "The team expects you to be there and you are not there, so you have to man up and take full responsibility of it and make sure it doesn't happen again." Duhon is averaging 6.9 points and 4.6 assists in 30 starts this season, but his recent shooting slump has put his starting guard job in doubt. Duhon is 6 of 40 from the field in the month of January, 2 of 24 from 3-point range. Wallace is averaging 6.6 points and 10.1 rebounds. </div> Read more...
I love Duhon as much as the next guy, but as each day goes by it seems as though he is falling out of favor in Chicago. Although, Skiles reportable loves what Duhon brings to the team, would anyone be surprised to see him involved in a trade deadline deal to bring in a big man possible?
I would not be surprised but I would hate to see him go. Especially for some big man who probably won't contribute much.
