So why didn't he call out Kobe and everyone else who gets free fouls? He chose the weakest duck.

Going after Kobe would have been pointless because he is basically a legend of the game at this point. Griffin makes sense because they're in the same age range, play the same position, and DMZ is just as talented as he is.

:lol at the idea of me being bitter about Sacramento.

Yep, I'm terribly bitter that OKC drafted Harden instead of Reke.

Look, I'm sorry your team completely bitched out and got backdoor swept on the game's biggest stage and all but you really need to consider how terrible for your health all this salt is.

If its BG vs DMC it seems more like jealousy than a legit complaint.

The last two years in okc were better than the entire history of the city of Sacramento.

I moved into DMC's camp after he called the league and Griffin out for some of the BS they get away with. I love guys that aren't tepid, tow-the-line no matter what types. He is FAR from weak. He just needs to bring that no BS attitude to work with him everytime he steps out onto the court.

You're right, it was downright crushing to cruise to the Finals with a core of guys 24 and younger...

Speaking of Reke... It makes me :lol even more to think back on the days that Best-GAF had epic arguments about Harden and Reke, with most people thinking OKC made a huge mistake.

There's a difference between a player that gets star calls and a player who is a shameless flopper.

Kobe isn't a flopper as he rarely ever hits the deck. He'll try and draw a foul, like everyone, but not at the expense of looking like a complete fool.

When a guy as big as Blake.G hits the floor after minimal contact, you can't help but hate on that kind of shit. The guy is as solid as they come, pure muscle... but a little bump send him crashing to the floor?

Or when C.Paul goes into full on Taz-Spin mode when he drives the lane and ends up on his ass. This guy has the best balance in the league but can't stay on his feet after minimal contact in the lane? It's not like he's a skinny dude either.

DMC called out a couple of dudes who seem proud to be floppers. Who will use it as part of their gameplan. The sad part is, they already get star calls... the flopping is just extarcurricular.

LMAO Skip showing his basketball knowledge. SAS just asked him to name 2 better backcourts than Deron/JJ and he first said "Wade and Lebron". When it was explained to him that Lebron is a forward, he changed his pick to Rondo/Pierce.

No, he argued that LeBron plays a good deal of point guard in MIA, before SAS insisted that he change his pick.

I'm amazed neither one thought of Nash & Kobe.

If I was in HawksAge, I'd be perfectly content right now with getting rid of The 120 Million Dollar Man and Marvin Williams.

All they should be look at right now is shopping Josh Smith for picks or a serviceable wing.
