Random Basketball Observations

Haha, he's still claiming it was a complete accident. That the motion was just celebration and he had no idea Harden was there. Incredible.

How many games do you think

deserved? (attempted murder)

5. That was bad.

Or

? (murder)

5. Also bad.

Or

? (stand your ground?)

2. That was just a "back off", and he didn't even follow through. It was barely a love tap.

Are we saying Artest deserves a much bigger suspension because the player he hit was hurt? Or because of his reputation?

He took a HUGE windup, slammed directly into the guy's head (unlike the other glancing blows), and followed all the way through. Plus his history. If I'm in charge, it's 12 games. And yeah, it does matter that he hit the guy hard enough to hurt him.

Yeah, he executed that elbow really well. Like I said, I thought 10 games, so we're not very far off from each other. I think if anything, previous elbow suspensions should've been longer.<------------------->Kobe needs to score 38 points tonight to win the scoring title. What's the over/under on shots attempted? I think there are two options for tonight: either he goes crazy gunning for it or he goes the complete opposite direction and attempts something like five shots so he can say, "See guys, I don't care about stats."

[DJ Vu 176]

I'm hoping he does this. Why not? Doesn't matter if they win or lose. I don't think he should be resting this game anyway, since he's just coming off of being out for two weeks.My all-NBA teams:First teamChris PaulKobe BryantLebron JamesKevin DurantDwight HowardSecond teamTony ParkerRussell WestbrookKevin LoveJosh SmithAndrew BynumThird teamRajon RondoDwyane WadeLamarcus AldridgeDirk NowitzkiMarc Gasol

How did Raja Bell only get 1 game?I agree with everything you said, about everything Dj vu

Asalaam alikum.Looks like Kobe is going to sit out. Super gay.Haha

[FCP Bob 1,312]

Lebron is a great player.He's also a flopping ********** and the fact that the refs fall for it every time is making the game a joke.He's 6'8" and 280 of rock solid muscle, I wish the refs would just laugh at his flopping instead of rewarding it.

[BigDMcGee 3,352]

I would say there were a lot funnier jokes in that Knicks-heat game besides LeBron's flopping

[CaneBrain 95]

Yeah, if only the refs would take Lebron to task for his rare flops, the Knicks might have stayed within thirty. :icon_hand:edit: That Chandler screen to the back of the head actually looks really painful. That gif is not helping your argument at all.

Haha. His initial reaction is real, and warranted. Then he throws up his hands and falls to the floor, which was less than real and not so warranted. Come on, the two stages of the post-hit movements are very obviously unrelated.

I don't think anyone is arguing the first point and it's insane that you're arguing the second point.Derrick Rose being done is super, super lame. Like, the worst.The Pacers were the hottest team in the East going into the playoffs. Everybody who talks about momentum as a real thing can go suck it. If I was the Thunder's coach, I would've been using Durant as a decoy for the last shot. Westbrook can get into the lane any time he wants. Nice lucky bounce though. Shawn Marion, you can't take 27 dribbles in 1.5 seconds.Spurs looking good.That was classic Bynum right there. Great and immature simultaneously. I guess since the game wasn't in doubt, it's not quite as bad that all he cared about was getting another block.Way to go, Rondo. Get in a ref's face when he made the correct call and then bump him with his back to you. Classy. If he doesn't get suspended, it's a joke. But Boston can lose game 2 and still win this series.What the fuck, Memphis? Do you know how many hours of basketball I watched this weekend? I stopped watching because it was 95-74 with 8 minutes left. That should be safe. I have no idea how that happened.

"We want someone who wants to win," Higgins said. "That's the main quality."bobcats team president said that when asked about their next coach. really? that's the main quality?

[DJ Vu 176]

first row is back in business. I don't know for how long.

Until now, apparently.

Much obliged.

http://sports.yahoo.com/news/nba--amar-e-s...ching-wall.htmlAmare punches fire extinguisher and badly hurts his hand and is not likely to play again in the playoffs.I wonder if the Knicks would amnesty him if they still could but since they did it with Billups they don't have that option.

[Poppy_Hillis 11]

"We want someone who wants to win," Higgins said. "That's the main quality."

False. Rod Higgins doesn't even want to win. He signed his son this year who's terrible.

[DJ Vu 176]

This Thunder-Mavericks series is quite enjoyable. I really do hate Kendrick Perkins though.

Is he untradeable? I know that contract looks really bad, but he can still be a valuable player in the right system (read: not the Knicks). He really needs a PG who can run pick and rolls with him.

haha nice gif.and yes he is untradeable. beyond his on the court problems his contract is un-insured. nobody in their right mind would take him from the knicks. (cue up trade talks to minnesota or charlotte).

and they can't amnesty him since The Knicks used theirs on BillupsIt is a really horrible contract and like you said it can't be insured because of his history of injuries.$19,948,799 $21,679,893 $23,410,988 over the next 3 seasons.

That's awesome.Grantland:Lakers forward Jordan Hill has been charged with felony assault in a choking case. "Oh my god," said LeBron James when he heard the news. "They can arrest you for that now?"
