Big Baby Suspended By Orlando Magic

I'm not even going to bother with a witty headline or a turn of phrase. He is what he is at this point.

Orlando Magic F Glen Davis docked 2 games for detrimental conduct - ESPN

Orlando forward Glen Davis has been suspended for two games by the Magic for conduct detrimental to the team. Davis will miss Friday's home game against Cleveland and Saturday's game at Indiana. Orlando coach Stan Van Gundy acknowledged before Friday night's game that some sort of verbal incident took place during the team's walkthrough Friday morning, but denied anything physical occurred between the two.

I do remember thinking at the time of the trade that if he bristled under Doc's tutelage, what was he going to do under the serial yeller Stan Van Gundy? It seemed like a good trade at the time for us and it seems like it is getting better and better.

And before that, there was this little gem:

Yeah, that’s right… he dropped his shorts in the middle of a game to protest a call. Yes. He did.

One of Danny’s best moves, ever.

+1

Bbd now has to grow up. No one to discipline him

And the trade sucks…how…LOL…Boston knew what they were doing after all …discontent….the killer

I wonder what he did to get suspended
Lol guess im tired, didn't read the post right

I wonder what he said to get himself suspended then

Update from twitter

“Everyone knows @iambigbaby11 was suspended. But no one knows about the huge hole in LR wall where he plowed into the door and it hit wall!!!”

^ I guess that had something to do with it.

Baby

I think the sign and trade was great. Bass is solid and you never know what Baby is going to do.

But, I kind of feel sorry for Baby. There seems to be something more going on here. I know he had a rough childhood, but so did many other NBA players. I really think he needs some help and hope, that at some time, he will get it. He was in the greatest situation here with Doc and teammates who were willing to help him. He just didn’t take full advantage of it. Maybe someone is giving him bad advice, but whatever it is I hope he straightens out. He’s really a good person and has done so much to help the community, especially kids.

I sure am glad the Magic gave us that Christmas trade gift! Bass has been awesome since day 1!
hahaha

he must have angered ron jeremy

Big Baby just never grew up- he still doesn't get it, and probably never will.
Big Baby is still a....well Big Baby
Sad

Really—I’m glad that Baby is no longer a Celtic, but he’s got problems and I think his career is headed south fast. Ainge made the right move for the team but it’s a disaster for both Baby and the Magic

The picture is great! Really sums it up

I am still perplexed about the S&T. Why would ORL plunk down $26mm for this guy?

Where are all those BBD defenders now?

Defending his meltdown for the 2nd half of last year/playoffs and pretending he doesn’t brick all those long jumpers. Yes he is still talented but he is so immature and is not hardworking enough to reach his potential. The fact that he sometimes acted out while being around the big3 and being coached by Doc means he will not always be professional even with great leaders on the team. On a team like the Magic with a laid back superstar and no other leader, he is completely off the leash.

I don't know that anyone defended his meltdown

But having some sympathy is another matter.
