“I was just fighting myself, man,” Waiters said. “That’s what I was doing. I just left it alone. I’m going to make the best of it. I’ve got good people in my corner who actually care for me. I’ll be good.”

2014-12-14Dion Waiters has been playing a lot better the past few games, and Chris Haynes is reporting that it’s because he has had an attitude adjustment. The Neon man said that he was showing up to games heated.
“I would be mad before I even got in the game,” Waiters told Northeast Ohio Media Group. “I was mad, [but] it is what it is.”
Now that he has worked hard to fix a kink in his shot and is finally making some heaves he is jolly just in time for Christmas.
Waiters is never one to act, but the league thinks Matthew Dellavedova is. The league likened his poor acting to Tommy Wiseau‘s of the The Room by calling him out on flopping. The NBA promised a five thousand dollar fine for the next incident to prevent the Aussie from attempting to pantomime again.

Here’s a nice link on rest of the story http://www.cbssports.com/nba/eye-on-basketball/24886991/waiters-on-early-struggles-i-would-be-mad-before-i-even-got-in-the-game A little different take than ABJ too. He’ll tell you like it is at the risk and you know damn well it will, getting twisted into something else by tomorrow. They’ll say he’s not a team player, he’s way to arrogant when all he tried to say was his honest feelings on what was going on with him. He’s still very VERY young.
Speaking of flops, Johnny Football should definitely be fined for the one he pulled off today.
