PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) -- Trail Blazers guard Bonzi Wells was suspended for
two games without pay by the team Tuesday for cursing his coach after
being taken out of a game.
Wells also was stripped of his co-captain's title for his behavior during
Monday night's 105-98 loss at Dallas.
``It just gets old. I'm sick of it,'' coach Maurice Cheeks said. ``I'm
sick of always saying he didn't mean it and all that. Players have to be
accountable for what they do and what they say.''
Well was not available to comment.
Cheeks said Tuesday that Wells cursed him after being removed from the game
in the third quarter. Wells did not play the rest of the way.
Team president Steve Patterson said further violations would result in
stiffer penalties.
``We have said all along that we expect our players to conduct themselves
in a responsible and professional manner both on and off the court,''
Patterson said.
Earlier this month, Wells was fined for making an obscene gesture toward
a fan during a loss to Philadelphia. Wells apologized, saying, ``I'm not
going to be 100 percent perfect -- I'm going to have a 10 percent lapse
sometimes.''
Wells was suspended by the NBA for a game last November after spitting on
San Antonio forward Danny Ferry during a game. The next month, he drew a
two-game league suspension for his role in a postgame brawl with the Golden
State Warriors.
Last March, Wells was suspended for one game by Cheeks for ``conduct
considered detrimental to the team.'' Details of the matter were not
released.
Several player arrests and team infighting angered fans last season.
Blazers officials are trying to repair the club's image this year.
