every NBA player does it.

they do it so the refs will watch it closer the next time.

very rarely do the players not complain, sometimes even as far as throwing hissy-fits even on the blantly obvious calls like that one where james elbowed that wizards player square in the jaw.

the only reason i'm glad he's doin alright is bc MJ gave him soo much shit. If the greatest player in the game calls you shit that's gotta hurt i dun care how big he is.

Rome wasn't, but man sure the hell was. Read the Bible, very informative. Some of those men just do not have the talent of those forementioned.

That's odd. Scientific evidence says otherwise. If you want to have religious discussions, there's plenty of room in the parking lot for that, but can we abstain for turning things such as NBA threads into some sort of religious thread. You have your opinion and I have mine. Lets keep NBA to NBA, and religion to religion.

As far as Kwame, we shouldn't be suprised. There are lots of players who really do some great things once they leave DC.

anyone have a clip of lebron's game winning shot in game three? I'd like to see it before i make a judgement.

[dmek25]

hooskins simmer down.my point on that play is 1. he did walk but it never/rarely is called and 2. lebron is one of the leagues poster children and this league more so than any other does everything it can to PROTECT them.no ref in that league makes that call

it should be Kobe's regaurdless of the outcome of the series. take kobe away from that team and there lucky to win 20 games.

I agree. Kobe should be the MVP for sure. Nash is great. But he dosn't carry a the team like Kobe.
ps.Did you guys see the Lakers vs. Suns game yesterday? That was one of the best games I have seen in a long long time.

that was an incredible ending. luckily they've reshown it quite a few times cuz I didn't plan for overtime and my vcr stopped recording it right before ot while I was at work.

it looked like the ball was knocked loose so he woulda been able to take extra step...i don't envy being an NBA ref that shit is hard with so many fouls so much to watch so quick i don't even try to argue because they don't have instant replay. i kno i wouldn't have been able to see it w/o IR.

I wish I could've posted this two years ago....

DUH! Kwame is a natural center. He is very deliberate around the basket, competitive one on one, and prefers to play with his back to the bucket. He is not cut out for the high post / motion / Princeton Offense EJ runs.

The triangle, on the other hand, is tailor made for Kwame at Center. Own up to it people, Kwame was never a bad player in Washington, but he was almost always bad in Eddie Jordan's system, and was never really given the opportunity under Doug Collins to become a scorer.

Before the berage of insults and objections come, lemme just say that Kwame's lack of dedication - missing practice - oversleeping, etc. was inexcusable, and I'm loving Caron Butler.

kwame always stunk here. he was here BEFORE EJ and still sucked, and he's not great now, just slightly less bad. i would have traded him for some frito's, getting an actual player (like butler) is amazing.

I don't know why butler didn't play like he is now when he was with the lakers last year and it's not for lack of shots cuz he averaged 13 shots a game last year to this years 14.5 but there were long stretches when he just dissapeared and normally they were when Kobe was out.

arenas works a bit like kobe in that he helps caron stay open more (since gil is such a threat)... maybe the light switch went off, i don't know. I'm not a hardcore NBA fan so i don't watch a lot of non-wizard games.

actually, caron had his best numbers during the latter part of the season when kobe was injured... think most good players have an adjustment period playing with kobe. especially during last season, when kobe was playing like selfish kobe. i hate kobe bryant, but he's actually playing team ball during the playoffs. i hope the clippers take them down- i really like brand.
