A few games ago Byron Scott called Joel a dirty player. Now Joe Freeman of the O seems to say the same: "his win-at-all-costs mentality and do-the-dirty-stuff role" It could be that Freeman meant do-the-dirty-work, not do-the-dirty-stuff? Work and stuff have rather different connotations in this context. Just thought it was amusing. barfo
I am glad that Joel doesn't accept being pushed around. Its about time that he brings out his inner anger when someone pushes his boundaries. He's showing more grit with this team than with prior players on the roster and he is accepting that G.O is learning the system. Notice how Joel isn't complaining about minutes because hes realizing that Oden and himself share slight different abilities that help out the team in the long run.
