Rudy Fernandez’s Agent: Don’t Make Fun of My Client

Gerard Dames, who reps Rudy, went on the offensive and tsk-tsked media and fans in Portland for criticizing his sensitive client (who has made it clear that he wishes to return to Europe). Blazers Edge has the details: “First of all, I don’t think anybody has the right to make fun or joking about a human being wishes and desires, and nobody can evaluate how fine or how sad a human being is being far from home, friends and culture. Nobody can blame any little thing about Rudy practice and attitude. He has been playing in every practice that he could. He apologize to the staff and to the owner if anything he said hurted them during the summer. He said what he desire clearly in media day and he cannot say it again and louder because the NBA already fined him, but is clear which are his sensations. Also, as he said, is not getting used to the NBA system, he likes the European style of game better.”
