I also thought that the Knick fans clapping when their team left the court was really classless and just plain stupid. Why are you clapping a team that just got blown out at home and caused a big brawl? Just , I don't know what the word is to describe these Knick fans. :thumbdn1:

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Yeah, but why did Melo come in? why did anyone come in? Just let the 2 guys in the beginning fight it out. Everyone in America is pussies nowadays, they have to have a f*cking posse, they wimp out on 1v1s. This was a bad foul but just take your 2 flagrant shots and man up.</div>Nate Robinson is the one who started throwing punches, So why call out Carmelo for being a punk?<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Well, Melo making a children's book(probably encouraging them to smoke pot) isn't as big as T.O. making one haha.</div>Yep, That's exactly what the story is about.
Hmm nate-Look at my sig...I agree it does hurt the sport especially happening in NYC. I'm glad no fans were involved. But that was some funny sh*t how frye just sat there after melo threw him on the ground. Melo stood over him and prolly said something like, "C's up, u get up, u gettin cut up" lol nah sad story...

The way the refs are making calls this year there where probley no fouls called, in this huge fight. Lmao

Even little kids as young as a few months old learn how to punch/hit before they are even able to talk. It's a natural thing to do.I don't agree with the fight, I think it was classless. But fighting is natural and there is something about it that makes people attracted.

Real class act.
The league has thuggish players but is in no way thuggish. Players like Nash and Tim Duncan are not thuggish. There are others who arent either. But I agree there are a lot. Dont jump to stupid conclusions."Hate the player not the game" or players whatever u wanna call it.

Heh, that was awesome. It really, really will hurt the Nuggets though because they'll lose their 2 best players for a while...Nate is one tough mutha, it looked pretty funny how he was going after people. And Jeffries too, lol...

If something is made up of mostly thugs its thuggish.....just cause there are exceptions doesn't make it untrue. The truth is that there is atleast 2 of these things a year and its terrible. How can a league of so called professionals have this happen? I dont get it. Not to mention Melo is part of it, one of the most popular players in the league you would think he would have some control

Memphis needs one of these, attendance rate would shoot throught the roof.....and maybe a couple bullets too.Knicks got pissed cause JR was going to embarrase them AGAIN, Mardy did a messed up flagrant foul.And I noticed Nate Robinson was about to bo up to Melo or Nene(cant tell which), then he realized hes normal height and would be F*cked up by a 6'8 player.

I think he should have controled himself, even though I know in that situation I would do the same thing, but whatever he'll get a suspension and a week from now we'll forget about it, NBA fans are famous for their short memories.
