Relationship with Mike Fratello

I would love to see some info about Kemp's relationship, or lack thereof, with Mike Fratello during his Cleveland years. It was during this time that Kemp gained weight. With the Memphis Grizzlies, Fratello was often harsh with Stromile Swift, a player similar in many ways to the younger Shawn Kemp. Rag-time4 (talk) 03:38, 1 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Unwritten Rule?

Is there a secret rule that states that if you are a fan of a particular celebrity, you may not devote a sufficient amount of time on a wikipedia article discussing negative/unfortunate aspects of their character/life?. 98.237.8.197 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 02:40, 17 July 2010 (UTC).[reply]
