Im surprised to see nobody remembers that punch, Kermit Washington shattered Rudy Tomjanovich's face, He was laying in a puddle of blood and alot of people thought he was dead. He had fluid leaking from his brain to his mouth.He had to get 5 surgeries, He almost died.
^Oh yeah, I vaguely remember hearing about Rudy T getting punched and needing suregery, but I had no idea that was the famous Kermit Washington punch.
I am going to have to go with dogma. I think that he was forced to go with something that he didnt want to choose and he came up with valid points to back it up. This debate wasnt very interesting but I agree with Dogma when he said that it will be remembered later on whereas the fight will not be remembered 30 years from now.
Alright...I'm going to read them over now and I'll let you know my vote in a couple minutes. Good luck to both, and I won't be biased. Honestly.After reading the debate. SunnyD made better points and arguments...but I didn't agree with the brawl being more remembered and recognized than Wilt's 100 point game. In that case,my vote goes to nba dogmatist. This was not biased at all and I am trying to be as honest as possible. SunnyD made some great points but didn't choose the right moment.
that's it. i win then, i guess. weird, thanks hang eleven for making it 5 voters. congrats to SunnyD tho. great debate. actually, it wasn't great on either side, but that's okay. haha
I know the judging is over and everything, but I just wanted to add this...The question was wrong. There were technically 3 games in NBA history that were stopped short of completion. The one that Hang Eleven didn't mention was stopped, and then completed later on in the season. I cannot remember the teams involved off the top of my head, but I remember it is the only game in NBA history where two players played for both teams in the same game (they were traded for each other at some point between the stopped game and then date that it was eventually completed).I remember reading about it a few years ago, so I'll look it up to get the exact information, and I'll post it once I find it (hopefully). Just thought I'd add that interesting point...
Yeah, I didnt see your vote before. I checked, and saw it after I posted that and deleted my post.Congrats Dogma. Tough luck, SunnyD.Anyway, can judges now vote on my debate please. I cant wait much longer.
Woah woah wait a second....... I'm not so sure that Dogma really did win....<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (RashadzMcCantz @ Sep 6 2006, 09:50 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>After reading the debate.

Congrats to Dogma though.
