It's the frickin' Wizards. They had the World's Greatest Basketball Player Ever, Bitches™ and ran him out of town. That franchise is a joke.

And Arenas is a twat. Didn't he guarantee a playoff berth for the Wizards last year as well? Shut up and do something before you start talking smack. Shaq has his rings, all you have is a big nose and questionable shot selection. Doofus.

Hey! Jordan ruined that organization! Before Jordan, the Wizards/Bullets were building up for great things! They called it the "30 Year Plan" They were in Year 22 of the plan before Jordan screwed them up! Damn you Jordan!

LeBron loves his girlfriend. There is no other woman in the world he’d rather have. The problem is, Dwyane’s not a woman.

he's reportedly told Jerry Buss that if he does play, it'll be ONLY for the Lakers. The Mailman BLEEDS PURPLE AND GOLD BITCHES! LALA snags another one legend, this time it only took one season.

ALL TIME LAKER TEAM:

C-WILT: Best Center EVER.
PF-Karl: Best PF EVER.
SF: Big Game James: Best SF EVER.
SG: Jerry West: Best SG EVER.
PG: Magic: Best PG EVER.

The greatest ever. That was repeated Tuesday coast to coast like a broken record. "He's the greatest player I've ever seen," said one of the greatest players in NBA history, Lakers vice president Jerry West. "It hurts me to say that, because I feel like a traitor to the Lakers who have had three or four players that were incredible. Forget the spectacular. It was his will, his skill and his talent that set him apart. I admired him so much as a player and a competitor. But he's a greater treasure as a person than maybe as a player."

Another quote from Jerry West that's on the "Airtime" video:


(Referring to Jordan)

"He's the best offensive player in the league, he's the best defensive player in the league, and he's the best competitor, playing on a team that-- while by no means a perfect team-- compliments him. He carries this team; very rarely do players carry teams to wins, much less championships; if there's ever going to be another guy who comes along who's better, I think we're all gonna be scratching our heads."


And to paraphrase another West quote on MJ from an ESPN interview:

"I think that people really don't understand just how good this guy is; people talk about him and they usually concentrate on what a beautiful dunker he is-- if he didn't dunk a basketball, he'd still be as great as anybody who's ever played this game. You can make the case that certain players played at their positions AS WELL as Michael Jordan, but you really can't say that anybody has ever played the game any better, or was more skilled or naturally gifted."

WTF??? Wizard players talking trash???

http://www.sun-sentinel.com/sports/...02oct02,0,4528061.story?coll=sfla-sports-heat

"I know everybody is thinking Shaquille O'Neal is going to do everything for Miami, but I think they got rid of too many people to get him," Wizards guard Gilbert Arenas told the Washington Times. "If they are at the top, it's going to be us or them that are going to win the division. Of course, everybody has to stay healthy."

Arenas also questioned O'Neal's main supporting player.

"Dwyane Wade proved that he couldn't shoot in the Olympics," Arenas said. "They've also got Eddie Jones, but let's be honest, combined, the two of them are not Kobe [Bryant]."

Arenas also raised questions of O'Neal's durability.

"With Shaq, looking at his past, he's going to miss at least 15 games," Arenas said. "Same thing with Eddie Jones. And then you have Dwayne Wade by himself, and I don't think he can carry a team."

WTF??? part 2.. Whats up with all these fools talking junk? ESPECIALLY Okafor?

http://www.sun-sentinel.com/sports/...3oct03,0,1115573.column?coll=sfla-sports-heat

CHALLENGE POSED: From the be-careful-what-you-wish-for department, Bobcats first-round pick Emeka Okafor spent last week promoting his team's Oct. 26 exhibition against the Heat, a game that will be limited to Charlotte-area middle-school students. Okafor's pitch? "Who's going to be there to see me dunk on Shaq?" Uh, probably not Shaq.

On tour to promote his biography Yao: A Life in Two Worlds...In his book, Yao offered translation for the tattoos worn by Nuggets power forward Kenyon Martin. "His letters mean, `Not aggressive' or `indecisive,'" Yao wrote.

Lakers reportedly close to signing Eddie Griffin. IF he can get passed the whole alcoholic/tries to kill his teammates thing, could be a great addition for us.

MJ and Scottie who? :D

Oh and why is Sasha not on the initial roster for NBA 2K5? If I had him, I wouldn't have had to swing all those trades to get 2 decent pgs on my team in the GA league :lol

You're way off on BOTH....:lol


Unless you're comparing Kobe to Pippen, and Odom to Jordan, then you're only wrong with one of them...although by a couple of MILES....like 32,292 miles...;)

His quotes in the Miami Herald yesterday had us laughing out loud.
"I told my wife the other day, I'm the Halle Berry of the NBA," said Shaq. "Everybody wants this, baby. Everybody wants me. You're firing Phil without telling me. You're doing this and doing that. I'll tell you what, you can have this. I've been the scapegoat for too long."




Then on Phil being let go: "Phil took us to the finals three out of the five years and you want to fire him and want to bring in Mike Krzyzewski? Come on, man. That's like being married to J-Lo, then dropping J-Lo for a girl that's 5-10, 480 (pounds). They asked me when I was out there, 'Why do you want to be traded?' I said me staying here is like divorcing my wife and marrying someone who looks like me. That's backwards, man."

And one more, this one on his relationship with Dwyane Wade:

"Now, the mistakes that I made with my other two sons, Penny and Kobe, I won't make with D-Wade. The first day I got here I had a conversation with D-Wade. I said, 'Listen, what happened between me and (Bryant) out there (in Los Angeles) can never happen between me and you. We can't let them break us up and we can't break each other up.'"
