“I went to the wall to make sure (Wood) was here,” Casey said after the Pistons win over the San Antonio Spurs; a game where Wood went off for 28 points and 10 rebounds. I was also told much earlier in the season by those close to the situation that Casey was indeed the force behind keeping Wood over Johnson"
Absolutely no tangible evidence other than people said he was immature and unprofessional. So Casey had to manage him on what was essentially his rookie year? This was 4 years ago. Sounds like Casey was glad he did.
"including Porter and Wood, but it was Porter who lost his temper. He threw an object and left the Toyota Center, according to The Athletic's Shams Charania."
In 2 years in HOU, the only instance is it sounds like he took up for his teammate in an argument with an assistant coach. Rather than just suspending the young star Porter, they lumped in his journeyman support. By all means, this is a capital offense.
