The guy's just a total douchebag. Watching him get voted in by a disgusting margin yet again to the all star game makes me sick to my stomach. Hopefully Carter says something bad about Artest so that he'll really be in trouble. Our players should speak out louder against this sleazeball. I'd rather have Shawn Kemp on my team.

I really don't get why everyone is going crazy that Kobe and TMac are giving $1000 per point to the tsunami relief effort-- I mean, each of these guys is worth at least $75M (between salary and endorsements), so ~$30K each is equivalent to me giving a dollar. :lol
Yeah, it's nice in the sense that they don't have to give ANYTHING (and many rich bums in our society aren't, I'm sure
), but still-- stop splooging like they're Mother Teresas. In other words, I respect their kindness, but let's also keep it in its proper context.

If Jordan pissed in a cup and sent it to the tsunami victims you would claim that you had never seen anyone ever do anything half as charitable.

Oh I'm sure: Kobe's shooting 50+% and has 0 turnovers
Let's see how long that holds up.
I was laughing when Tim Legler said that if Kobe's TO average held up for the rest of the season (which I don't believe it will-- I feel he'll end up averaging ~ 4.1 TO's/game), it would be the highest TO/game average in history. Man, what a dubious distinction that would be. <rubs hands together> MWAHAHAHA

Yeah, the move was similar to the first part of that famous sequence of moves Hakeem laid on David Robinson that time, but that's not "The Dream Shake".
"The Dream Shake" is simply that thing that Jordan did also, where they give you that shoulder fake towards the other direction before turning the other way for the fadeaway or post-up move.
