There were reports that Von Wafer and Delonte West had a fight in the Celtics locker room Friday. When the report first came out it really sounded like Delonte would be cut, but now it seems that the report was completely overblown...
"I'm competitive, he's competitive, as long as it's for the betterment of the team, there's nothing wrong with healthy competition and pushing each other to get better," West told ESPNBoston.com. "Things went a little far, but at the same time, we were able to move past that. We're professionals."
Asked if he felt the two had patched things up, West added: "Oh yeah, no question. We laughed about it [Sunday]."
West also said the incident was overblown and facts about the fight were incorrect.
"I read the reports and a lot of things were taken out of [context], and facts were made up that were not true, how things played out," West told The Boston Globe. "Guys get into scuffles, or whatever you want to call it, but at the end of the day we're brothers in here and we had a big laugh about it. We're trying to win, we're competitive, we have fiery guys in here and, you know, you've got to get to the next thing, next game, next challenge (ESPN)."
I am glad that he is still here, and I really hope it wasn't that big of a deal, because West is going to be play a very important role for this Celtics team, and I really feel he will be an important part of this bench.
Bottom line is that fans in Boston want to love Delonte, lets just hope he doesn't blow it.
