WHY WON'T THE KOBEX CURSE WORK?!?

I expected Gordon to have a broken leg and the Bulls to be on like a 20-game losing streak by now!

Damn, that kid is clutch as hell...


He pulls out 16-20+ point 4th quarters like it's nothing-- reminds me of another Chicago player whose name rhymes with Gordon's. :D

Which is good. Now Finley can get in a good rhythm and score because Dallas can't win with out Finley.

Definitely. Howard is much more consistant of a player than Daniels. Howard really reminds me of Scottie Pippen.

He says he looked up to and modeled his game after Pippen. That's why you would see Pippen at some of the games.

Three Colorado baseball players tossed from NBA game

March 30, 2005

PHOENIX (AP) -- Phoenix Suns owner Robert Sarver ordered security guards to remove three Colorado Rockies players from America West Arena on Monday night for their conduct while seated directly behind him during a game against Denver.

The Arizona Republic reported that Sarver warned the men several times about violating standards of fan behavior before having them escorted out of the arena.

``When they violate that policy and don't adhere to a number of warnings, they need to leave,'' Sarver told the newspaper.

Rockies spokesman Jay Alves said outfielder Matt Holliday and pitchers Shawn Chacon, Brian Fuentes and Javier Lopez attended the game, but that he was not sure who was ejected. The Rocky Mountain News identified two of the three who were ejected as Chacon and Fuentes.

``We're aware of the situation and we're looking into it,'' Alves said.

----

:lol

Chacon's gotten booted in Arizona before, but never as a fan.

Yes. And I still refuse to believe that he actually pulled that off. For whoever it was that was posting T-Mac Gifs, fuck that, put up a Yao behind-the-back dribble gif :lol

That Yao move was probably the most amazing thing I've seen a guy 7'3"+ do. It almost makes up for him getting shook to the ground by Steph last year. Almost. :D

Bill Walton ain't right. :lol

http://proxy.espn.go.com/nba/columns/story?columnist=walton_bill&id=2023827

As the Los Angeles Lakers will fail to make the playoffs for only the fourth time since moving to California in 1960 and will become the first team in six years to miss the playoffs after reaching the NBA Finals the year before, I am becoming more perplexed by the day. As confusing and disappointing as the lack of progress, cohesiveness and player development that we were all promised has been, it has paled in comparison with the treatment of Kobe Bryant. It is mind-boggling to me why fans around the NBA are booing this now seemingly middle-aged man. I can understand why Lakers fans might boo him, but the rest of the league should be cheering wildly for the guy. And in Miami, Kobe should be the guest of honor at the parade the Heat can start scheduling right now.




Phoenix vs. Miami... they are 1-1 against each other this season?

Who the fuck does Sarver thinks he is to say when someone is misbehaving? Last time the Spurs where in Phoenix he spent all game taunting the Spurs bench and especially Pop, doing this crazy chicken-like movement where he flapped his arms and calling them chickens, just because Manu and TD(both injured) didn't play.

Anyway, just like I expected after last night's game, Ray Allen is back and he is still pisssed at Bowen. :lol

Frustrated Allen lashes out at Spurs' Bowen

Mike Monroe
Express-News Staff Writer

The Spurs played the Seattle SuperSonics on Wednesday night at SBC Center, but there was a game within the game that was just as compelling: Bruce Bowen vs. Ray Allen.

Just as the Spurs scored an 89-76 victory over the Sonics, Bowen defeated Allen in a one-on-one matchup that was entertaining, educational and occasionally explosive.

And that was just the war of words.

Bowen, acknowledged as one of the league's best perimeter defenders, held Allen, an All-Star guard acknowledged as one of the league's best perimeter scorers, to 6-for-17 shooting. Allen was so frustrated that he took yet another verbal poke at Bowen's defensive tactics.

Last season, he said Bowen played "sissy basketball."

Wednesday night, he said Bowen doesn't play basketball at all.

"I don't know what he does," Allen said. "They put him out there to throw punches and throw elbows. I don't know what he's doing. That's not basketball that he plays."

Bowen responded with a subtle backhand that ought to sting Allen as much as the elbows and punches he accuses Bowen of throwing: The truly great players, Bowen said, take their licking and work on ways to outplay the great defenders.

"I've never heard the great ones say anything like that," Bowen said. "You never heard Michael Jordan say: '(New York Knicks guard) John Starks doesn't play basketball, or the Pistons don't play basketball.' John Starks might have gotten physical with him, but what did Michael do? He went and hit the gym hard and continued to play."

What is it about Bowen that frustrates so many great scorers?

Brent Barry, who saw the feud from the other side as a member of the Sonics last season, said the answer is simple: Bowen never stops playing defense.

"Most NBA players can play defense for about 10 seconds," Barry said. "Bruce never stops, and it makes guys mad. It's hard to get under Ray Allen's skin because he's such a great player. Bruce, obviously, does a great job of frustrating anybody."

Bowen said he takes no satisfaction in having so frustrated Allen that he takes verbal swipes at him.

"I'm more satisfied with the win," Bowen said. "If I made it personal, it would be that way. I respect Ray a great deal. That's why I prepare for him the way I do, because he's a very good player. People react differently. As long as he's missing shots, I'm happy."

Allen finished with 14 points, nearly 10 under his season scoring average of 23.9, and was called for an offensive foul in the fourth quarter for throwing an elbow at Bowen that did not connect. He said Bowen had hit him with an elbow first, and he got caught when he tried to retaliate.

Spurs coach Gregg Popovich credited Bowen for learning how to maintain his composure when emotions begin to run hot, and when his defensive efforts fail to prevent a basket.

"Bruce is getting better and better at that," Popovich said. "Just play the game and not worry about anything. What he's doing is a great job of just focusing on the job at hand and not worrying about what happens, especially if somebody scores. Ray made his first three or four jumpers, but Bruce just kept guarding him the same way. He didn't get excited and start fouling, bumping and hitting."

Anyone who saw the game would know it was pure hard nosed defense. Allen just wants people to let him score at will. Too bad he got the wrong man.

What a little bitch. He should get married with Vince Carter.

Hey, they're on TNT tonight, right? I'll be sure to watch; even though Ben Gordon has the makings of a Bobcat-slayer (I think he's the one who's killed us in all of the games we've played against the Bulls), he's quickly becoming one of my favorite players :D
