Lets play a game...

...called "Guess who that player is"

One player, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said he no longer wants to be a member of the team.
"I don't want to be here," the player said. "I always heard they were the Los Angeles Clippers of the East before I got here. Shoot, I think I'd rather be playing for the Clippers right about now. I heard horror stories about Washington before I got here."
That same player joked yesterday about how former Wizard Chris Webber, presently leading the powerful Sacramento Kings in the playoffs, told him that "playing in Washington was like playing in the ghetto."
"You know something, he might be right," the player said.


Seeing how as most everyone has played elsewhere, and this guy gives no reference to having done that (he might be right, instead of 'he's right'), I'd guess it's a rook...

I get the completely opposite impression, based on how he always heard, and based on talking to Webber.

Knowing the Wizards and who is likely to talk about it at all, I would say Russell, Hughes, or Thomas.

My vote would be Russell or Thomas, leaning toward Thomas because he was traded here.

My Guess, it's one of 3 people:
Tyronn Lue (MJ personal assist man)
Charles Oakley (never afraid to speak his mind - doubtful he would do it anonymously though)
Bryon Russell (hopefully it's him so he'll certainly opt out)

Can't see any of the younger players really caring right now, especially with a new regime comes more playing time. I can't think of any youngster happy playing for Collins.

Coming from the nightmare in Golden State - Hughes is another guy that just wants playing time right now. His demotion by Collins and endless tongue lashings from MJ certainly would make Hughes more appreciative of the regime change.
