Reggie Bullock’s patience has paid off for Pistons

Auburn Hills — Reggie Bullock’s story isn’t a common one in today’s NBA. It’s the story of a guy who sat on the bench, learned the ropes and then pounced when given the chance.

More than anything, Bullock’s ascension is a story of patience, something that isn’t very common in this league, where guys can see there dreams go up in smoke before they’re ever given a real opportunity to prove their worth.

“A player with my story probably would have been out of the league or trying to find his way back in the league,” Bullock said when asked if the NBA gives up on guys too quickly.
