I guess you can say that Nate got what he deserved; or rather didn't get what he didn't deserve, but I would have liked to have seen him get the extra money. When he plays, he plays hard; sometimes out of control, but he does give it his All.
Do people in any other profession get paid for having a good heart and trying hard? Isn't there supposed to be something about "results"?
That is what fans are about. I root for my team and players I like. I do like Nate for what he is. Once traded to Boston, the Celtics had 31 games remaining. Nate played in 26 of those games. I just hope they didn't sit him for those extra 2 games so they wouldn't have to pay him.
And yes, Nate brought it on himself with his goofy play on the knicks. But as many posters commented here, Nate's 16 game benching was quite excessive.
The difference between fiction and reality? Fiction has to make sense.
