it wouldnt make much sense if it only was a single ref that rigged these games. its a group thing. like if youre doing a group project and one person is fuckin it up, youre gonna let them know. i dont see any of the refs puttin a holt on what he was doing.
is it lol nets really suck right now. i know injuries played a role in that but damn, 0-14. they got some talent, like 4-5 players and after that its a major decrease in skill level.

^i kind of agree with that. he was given a real oppertunity to adapt with the pistons/grizz imo. like with the pistons thing, i dont think none of really gave him a chance and behind the doors they had turmoil was going on and adding iverson added more fuel to fire.
the grizz just signed for the money. they didnt care if he dropped 4pts or 40pts. most of us knew from the beginning it wouldnt work out playing with the grizz.
on a championship squad, he can be a valuable 6th man but no championship team is interested in him because was has happend the last season.
my advice wouldve been shut up just come off the bench and show you can still play at a high level then ask for a buyout and hope a playoff team signs you.

His ego is too big for a secondary role. He was never used to it and I don't think he wants to get used to it. If the team isn't centered/built around him, it doesn't work. That doesn't mean it'll stay that way. I just can't see him not playing basketball anymore. He'll definitely come back but he'll have to adjust majorly.
It's sad, though. He was my favorite player for the longest time. I think he's the only favorite player I ever had. I admire many players but shit, I had his desktop wallpaper printed out on my binder for the longest back in middle school/high school.

I like that bit of info. I still have posters of Iverson during his Philly days in my room. That's the part of his career I loved. His story on how he made his way up to play for the 76ers is unbelievable. Makes me think how life is full of lows before the highs come in.
I never got to watch a full Jordan game live but, we had plenty of edited replays on telly this half of the world. All they ever showed was the Chicago Bulls vs whoever. Once in a while it was the Lakers
True story: they once spent a whole year replaying the Lakers-Bulls finals series every Sunday.
True. I'm gonna get totally flamed for this. :noworry: After considering all the implications of this thought deep down, I keep wishing Lakers could sign him up.
Whats this about? The back and forth about your thoughts and Killuminatii 71 about Iverson?
I only noticed that when NBA TV did a special on it. That's a definitely a classic moment right there.
I tried looking for youtube clips of that but, no luck. I'm sure they will surface in due time if Brown ends up confirmed for the dunk contest. I've been hoping he would be one of the contestants, its already proven he can get up there. Hey, pre-decisions will always be there in sports. Remember Jordan vs. Wilkins?? People still debate about that dunk contest to this day.
No doubting Shan-wow's ability but, Lebron pulls off some crazy dunks in game time or even warm up. I think he's got creativity. I wouldn't be surprised if Kobe gives Brown some ideas either.

So we had a slow day in the NBA but plenty of talking points. Say what you want about Shaq but this story should be given headline priority
Shaquille O'Neal pays for funeral of 5-year-old North Carolina kidnapping victim - ESPN
Still on the Shaq trip, I think Cavs are doing a pretty good job without him. However, looks like he'll be back in the lineup.
Shaquille O'Neal of Cleveland says he will play for Cavs on Friday night - ESPN
Then of course Jason Kidd beats Mark Jackson on the assist list. WTF?? I didn't know he was second all time in the NBA. Especially when I see him doing his thing on TV
Dallas Mavericks point guard Jason Kidd moves into 2nd place on NBA's assists list - ESPN Dallas
If Jason Kidd wants to beat Stockton's record, he better get some tighter shorts. With all that restricted movement, it just might give him the urge to pass the ball more.
Finally a reminder of Lebron's dunking repertoire.
