?We all get heavier as we get older because there?s a lot more information in our heads. Our heads weigh more.?-- Vlade DivacThis is the second most exciting indoor sport, and the other one shouldn't have spectators.--Dick VertleibThey say that nobody is perfect. Then they tell you practice makes perfect. I wish they'd make up their minds. - Wilt Chamberlain If the NBA were on channel 5 and a bunch of frogs making love were on channel 4, I'd watch the frogs, even if they were coming in fuzzy. - Bobby Knight?Manute Bol is so skinny they save money on road trips. They just fax him from city to city."--Woody AllenIf you meet the Buddha in the lane, feed him the ball. - Phil JacksonJudd buchler and steve kerr were driving into practice on the day Jordan said "I'm back" ... Judd says "hey steve do you think they will let michale start?, i mean he's been out for 2 years and he'll be rusty" Steve says "Judd, as a general rule, when you have a statue of your self out the front of the building, your GOING to start."I like the last one the most.
This happened this past season, and I'm sure I posted it before. The rookies usually buy breakfast for the team whenever the 76ers' hold morning practices. So, Louis Williams goes to McDonalds and buys like 30 of those .99 cent breakfast burgers, and brings them to practice. The entire team, especially Allen Iverson and Mo Cheeks, crack jokes on how he's making NBA money now and he could have atleast bought some more burgers and a better variety, etc. Then Steven Hunter walks in late to practice, and Allen Iverson goes, "I think we should just trade Hunter for a year's supply of breakfast burgers!" And it almost happened a few weeks later...Also, this one is funny to me (I got it from Melo061):Tex Winter: "There's no I in team!"Michael Jordan: "But there is in WIN!"

here are some;People say I enjoy being famous. I don't. But what choice do I have?--Charles BarkleyThey're really aggressive. They're like roaches on bread - you drop some on the floor and, boom, they're on it.--Kevin Garnettthis is not funny but one of my favorite.......Good, better, best. Never let it rest. Until your good is better and your better is best.--Tim Duncan
Almost every Charles Barkley quote is funny to me.Some random ones by Chuck:After Kenny Smith expressed surprised at Barkley's ability to pronounce Suns guard Leandro Barbosa's name, Charles replied: "I'm bilingual. I speak profanity and English." On Magic Johnson's return to basketball: "We're just playing basketball. It's not like we're going out to have unprotected sex with Magic."playing golf with Woods:Tiger: I hear they're going to build a new Super Kmart here.Barkley: Yeah, where?Tiger: In the space between your ball and mine. "People say I eat a lot. I really don't. More or less I just eat all the time." You know the world is off tilt when the best rapper is a white guy, the best golfer is a black guy, the tallest basketball player is Chinese and Germany doesn't want to go to war.On the olympic sport, curling: "I'm still trying to get my grandmother off her old behind and into the Olympics. Why not? She can dust."many many more on: http://www.clintcam.com/barkley
We have a great bunch of outside shooters. Unfortunately, all our games are played indoors.Weldon Drew The secret is to have eight great players and four others who will cheer like crazy.Jerry TarkanianThere are really only two plays: Romeo and Juliet, and put the darn ball in the basket.Abe Lemonsi think the top one apply's to the sonics.
Clangus, those are awesome. :beerchug:"I'm tired of hearing about money, money, money, money, money. I just want to play the game, drink Pepsi, wear Reebok."-Shaquille O'Neal "Because there are no fours." -- NBA long-range gunner Antoine Walker when asked why he shoots so many threes "I told him,'Son, what is it with you. Is it ignorance or apathy?'He said, 'Coach, I don't know and I don't care."--Utah Jazz President Frank Layden, on a former player Earvin "Magic" Johnson: "They said playing basketball would kill me. Well, not playing basketball was killing me." :no1: "The Bulls had me in for a four-hour psychological test, and the next day they went out and signed Dennis Rodman"Jayson WilliamsDamn it, regardless of Jayson Williams actions after his career - Loose Balls is a must-read for NBA fans.

"My best night was when Elgin Baylor and I combined for 73 points. Elgin had 71 of them."-Hot Rod Hundley
My quote is from Patrick Ewing during the lockout: "We make a lot of money, but we spend a lot of money."To me being poor in most ways that basketball players are not, this was not only funny but almost had me wanting to watch the WNBA for a short while!
"We gunna celebrate, with the Red Moet. We aint poppin no Cristal, it tastes like urination"- Delonte WestGreg Dickerson: "Hey Al, is there anyone out there harder on you than Doc?"Al Jefferson: "Oh yea. Definitely.Greg Dickerson: "Really? And who's that?Al Jefferson: "Momma. Momma don't take no crap. You think Doc's hard, you aint met momma." :greengrin: Here's my favorite from Paul Pierce, in the 2005 playoffs:After Game 6, where Pierce was ejected for shoving Tinsley to the ground after Tinsley nudged Pierce in the face. After the game, in the post-game press conference, Pierce comes out with a bandage wrapped around his face (jaw area). Antoine Walker immediately smiles (knowing it's nothing serious and not a real injury) and covers his face for a second:Reporter: "Paul, explain that last conferentation with Jamaal Tinsley, and tell us what's up with that big bandage."Paul Pierce: "Well, Tinsley popped me in the face, and I pushed him away. He flopped, but oh well. I had to retaliate after getting my FACE TORN OFF."Antoine Walker: (starts giggling)-- Walker looks at Paul one more time --Antoine Walker: (puts his head down and starts laughing his ass off)LMFAO! That was a little immature by Pierce, but it was so funny. I mean he wasn't even hurt, he just did it as a statement that he shouldn't have been thrown out because Tinsley hit his face (but, it was an accident I will add). But the whole scenerio was hilarious, then Antoine just started laughing, and Pierce had a serious face on the whole time. Haha good times.
