Unpopular opinion: Ariza did nothing wrong. Was pretty much a normal foul and it's not his fault Rudy hurt his back.
Raymond Felton??? Just kidding. He still is my #1 most despised former Blazer. There isn't even a close 2nd one....
Are you saying it shouldn't have received the Flagrant foul that it was called as? The call was justified but I would agree with you (if this is your take) that the fall was unlucky and could have happened to anyone in that situation.
Id agree with that too, Ariza did make a play on the ball, but I still dont like Ariza for being there lol.
I would say it was barely a flagrant, but I understand why it was called that. If our player got that called on him I'd probably argue against it though. But yeah my take is mostly that it was an unlucky fall.
By todays rules its an easy call as a flagrant, he got a lot more head than anything else. Now the fall, was just a matter of landing on the wrong spot, while Ariza sure didnt help but I dont think he meant for him to get hurt either.
I agree with that. I don't necessarily agree with today's rules, that's more my personal problem though lol
Steve Blake, because I was always confident that a trade would occur at some point with him on the team.
Chris Dudley. I remember before a game watching him practice his free throws. Took 10 of them and missed 8. That typified his game--all effort, no talent. A lesser man would've quit after the first one. A close second was Steve Kerr. It was really fun seeing him for a season on the Jail Blazers.
Armon Johnson. Liked him at Nevada and looked so good those first few games. Thought we had something with him.
