Blatche: Wizards Didn’t Have My Back

Speaking to reporters in the Nets locker room before Monday’s game, (Andray) Blatche asked, “anybody seen how the Wizards are doing?” He then later went on Twitter after the game and said, “feels good to be part of a winning organization.”

Those comments prompted radio hosts Holder Kushner and Danny Rouhier on 106.7 FM in D.C. to ask Blatche, who spent seven years with the Wizards, to come on their show Tuesday morning and explain his comments.

“They could have explained what was going on, they could have had my back, they could have done anything,” Blatche said during the 24-minute interview that touched on a wide variety of topics.

“No, that is not what you do when you’re family … that’s not what you do. I don’t care what my brother, sister, uncle anybody does, I’m gonna have their back 100 percent, because they’re family and that’s what you do when you’re family.”

“I don’t care what they would have done. It could have been anything, it could have been something small other than to say ‘Well, you know what, this is our escape route. We’re gonna leave him out there for himself, he’s gonna fend for himself now.’

“No, that is not what you do when you’re family … that’s not what you do. I don’t care what my brother, sister, uncle anybody does, I’m gonna have their back 100 percent, because they’re family and that’s what you do when you’re family.”
