Le Basketbawl:
I have always considered myself a pretty good judge of character, normally I can spot a phony a mile away. Perhaps that is why I was bothered by Chicago Bulls guard Larry Hughes statements back in March. Hughes as you may remember was traded from the Cleveland Cavaliers to the Chicago Bulls last February. The first time that the two teams met after the transaction, Hughes spoke to the Cleveland media about his time wearing a Cavaliers uniform. Hughes told reporters "They wanted me to sacrifice things so we could win. In this system, there is more movement and draw and kicks. It was a good run. We had 50-plus wins, made the finals and I learned from it. I was unhappy, though, and wasn't myself. I'd rather enjoy the game than all that."
