OT: Bynum Suspended 5 Games for Barea Hit

Minstrel, please tell BoobNoMore that there are no accusations, as of yet, of Andre Miller owning an Airsoft gun.

 

And pushing in the back is what Miller did to Griffin. Glad we finally agree that what Miller did wasn't a cheap shot and happens every play to bigs!

 

I swear on my grandma, if Andre shows up to training camp with his hair all crazy like last year, I'm gonna' write a nasty letter to Rich Cho.

 

You are right! LOLZ

 

Absolutely a Blazer board, but the thing and joke of this forum is when you actually bring up Miller on every opportunity. And never in a positive way. Hey you could have easily brought up Ariza on Fernandez. But nope, you decided to use Miller knowing you could toss another dig on him.

Hell you could have just stuck to the topic and brought up Beasly or Wallace getting knocked to the ground. It is an obsession that everyone notices.

 

andre miller fucked my ass with no lube

 

I think he should have got a 10 game suspension. The fact that this is the 3rd time he's pulled this shit should have been given more consideration.

 

Too easy. He's the most predictable poster on this forum. At least Mixum spread his negativity around.

BNM

 

Karma is a mother fucker... I think the Karma Police just might step in on this one.

 

The subject line clearly states OT. Not sure how someone could miss that unless they are blinded by hate.

The only other comparable cheap shot this season and it was also Andrew Bynum. Nah, that would have been staying on topic.

BNM

 

When we played Dallas, many posts fantasized hurting that little foul pest Barea. Now he's the hero of the Blazer board.

I bet Bynum gets these fines after Jackson tells him to take out a certain player.

 

I fantasized about it, but as a "hard foul". That's why I snickered when Artest gave him a close line. That may have broken a nose, but when someone is in mid flight and you elbow them in the air; you can seriously harm the player. Maybe ruin his NBA career. When you are in mid-flight, you have no control after being hit. That's why this play was disgusting. Artest clothesline not so much.

 

I would have liked to see 10 games, probably because I hate purple and piss. I understand 5 though. If he had actually caused an injury on the level of what he did to Gerry it would warrant a much more severe response in the eyes of the league. We hate anything the Lakers do so we're going to wish for the worst, but reality does kind of fall in the "no harm no foul" category. It's too bad they don't have a penalty for "complete lack of class".

 

I think Jackson condones and promotes an environment where hard fouls, minor cheap shots, and chippy play are to be judiciously employed to gain an advantage. Bynum's dangerous cheap shots are perhaps a natural result of that. I don't think he tells the dumbest guy on his team to commit assault against a helpless midget when the team is already down by 30 points late in the fourth quarter, and the game, the season and his coaching career are minutes from ending. Jackson expects his goons to be smart enough to master the techniques necessary to push the other team's buttons. Bynum apparently ain't that guy.

 

Yeah but maybe Jackson told the dumbest guy on the team of goons to commit assault on a helpless midget when the team is already down by 30 points late in the fourth quarter, BECAUSE the game, the season and his coaching career are minutes from ending.

You said if A then not B, and I said if B then A.

 

haha! barred from the league. There have been 100 other incidents worse than Bynums cheap shot from franchise players and they didnt get barred from the league. Give it a rest. The head hunting is over..... 5 games and a fine.... There you have it.

1984 NBA FINALS. Kevin McHale closeslines Rambis.... Could have hurt him pretty bad. Did they expel him from the league? haha!!!

MARVIN WILLIAMS THROWS DOWN RAJON RONDO

The SUNS SHAQ, takes em DOWN!

Video 1 - Worthy pushed his teammate Rambis onto the floor and into the crowd. Rambis should be mad at his teammate.

Video 3 - Marvin Williams tried to cushion Rondo's fall. He wasn't trying to hurt him.

Video 4 - Shaq says in the tape that it was just a big object hitting a small object, like it was an accident. If so, why is Shaq so angry right after he takes down Stuckey and swinging at people trying to reason with him?

Video 2 - I'll never forget that fight. Bill Fitch had his players psyched up against the Celtics who had just fired him because the Celtic players couldn't stand his Don Nelson-like psych methods. Now with the Rockets, Fitch told Sampson he had no heart like the fighting Olajuwon, so both were in fighting trim for this game. (This is before Olajuwon went Muslim and became so dignified and peaceful that he let Barkley ruin the Rockets with selfishness.) Notice Walton's heroism in this fight. The injured old anti-war radical who had missed years of play took down the punching Sampson to the floor in a purely defensive way, that is, without hitting him, just to stop him from hitting Walton's teammates. Walton knew that as big man on the floor, it was his job to protect his teammates if Sampson hit them, yet he stayed true to his philosophy while stopping the fight by himself.

For many years I saved that game on my VCR and accidentally taped over it. I now have only a minute of the game left, with Walton on the bench with his wild eyes flaring. Notice how exciting this tape is, with the fighting? Before Stern stopped the fun, the NBA was actually exciting. I just skip all non-Blazer games now out of boredom. There used to be real conflict with real personalities who were each in the fight of his life. Sorry if I'm a bore on this board. I just barely watch Stern's snoozefest nowadays and don't have much to say. Too bad you guys didn't know me back then. If Stern retires, then we'll feel it again.

 

S2 is an exceptionally perceptive bunch.

 

Still on Video 2 - Due to his passive technique, Walton thus was not thrown out and Sampson was. Walton was smart. Heinsohn, who had been Celtic coach a decade earlier, is strongly biased against Sampson throughout the tape. At the end, Heinsohn is complaining that Sichting shouldn't have been kicked out, then is corrected that Sichting is still on the floor, but nothing embarrasses him. This mania is how the Celtics won so many championships.

K.C. Jones, who replaced Fitch as Celtic coach, used the old Auerbach tactic of having little man/mediocre Sichting fight big man/star Sampson, get both thrown out, causing a big net gain to the Celtics. Great to see fans and players without the military hair that soon took over this country. And players wearing shorts, not skirts. And Sampson telling the interviewer live on CBS that it was a "bullshit call." The freedom we had before Stern.

Stern ruined the country and the planet!

 

Hmm...you may be on to something.
