The poster child for not getting it moves on again:

He's with the right franchise now to run around like an idiot, but rarely can I recall a formerly respected player so badly exposing himself in so short a time.

Speaking of, Zach Randolph got tossed for punching Louis Amundson for no apparent reason.

Yeah what an idiot. And with Camby out again n Kaman still out, the Clippers are immediately back in the race for the top pick, as he will surely be suspended, and rightfully so

Thx Zach.

shawn Marion is a moron. I've always said he was extremely over rated because he sucks balls in the half court. And he just admitted it. What a loser

Did anyone else know that Henry Bibby and Damon Stoudamire are assistant coaches for the Memphis Grizzlies?

Anybody see the end of the Sixers-Nets game? What a shot by Devin Harris to win it! Here's a link to the highlights:

ESPN: Oscar Robertson and The Forgotten Hoosiers


Fantastic and insightful piece.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

As a general rule, I have a strong dislike for "run and gun" style basketball, but the fourth quarter of the Bobcats/Warriors game was entertaining, I must admit.

Bosh says O’Neal cheated in his 45-point night

Bosh says O’Neal cheated in his 45-point night

PHOENIX (AP)—Toronto’s Chris Bosh had an explanation for how Shaquille O’Neal scored 45 points: He cheated.

“He was just camping down in the lane,” Bosh said Friday night, after O’Neal’s biggest scoring night in six years led Phoenix to a 133-113 victory over the Raptors. “I mean, if they’re not calling three seconds—I thought it was a rule, but I guess not.”

It was the 49th 40-point game of O’Neal’s career and his highest-scoring game since he got 48 for the Los Angeles Lakers against Boston on March 21, 2003.

“It was cool,” O’Neal said. “Guys were really looking for me. I’ve been saying all year if I can get those touches like that, I think I can do that every night.”
A week shy of his 37th birthday, Shaq made 20 of 25 shots and grabbed 11 rebounds.

That sports writer isn't right saying that Bosh said that O'Neal cheated. Bosh said that the refs weren't calling 3 seconds in the key, not that O'Neal was cheating.
