Laughing at the NBA...

edited October 2008 in All Encompassing Trip
decided to take a peak at the old standing today to see just how bad the knicks ended the season, and i couldn't help to notice that miami finished 51 games back of boston.

that is comical!

when are they going stop making this a professional sport? it's really sad. i was once interested in the NBA back in the early/mid 90's, but time have changed. this is just an embarrassement.

    Especially from people that are probably NFL fans. :rolleyes:

    For every Ron Artest, Stephen Jackson, Zach Randolph there's a Michael Vick, Pac-Man Jones, Albert Haynesworth, Todd Bertuzzi, Barry Bonds, John Rocker . . . etc

    This list could go on for days.

    Exactly. Whoever is saying the NBA sucks, is not watching any games. So far all three games today have been awesome.

    and just because someone is black, plays basketball, has a tatoo or two, listens to rap and hip-hop music does not make them thug.

    Not everyone in the NBA is a thug. There are very talented players out there
    I Love the Celtics, always have. They are playing some Old SKool basketball this season and kickin ass. There are alot of players out there that are so amazing to watch. Labron, Garnett, Pierce, Nash, Paul .. I could go on and on

    actually that's just the whole knicks team...maybe a handful of other players...

    i also haven't really followed the nba since the early/mid 90's...

    i'll watch some playoff games here and there...kind of boring though.


    Esther's here and she's sick?

    hi Esther, now we are all going to be sick, thanks

    actually that's not the whole knicks team. while they are the joke of the league, the players are good people and hardly thugs, especially jamal crawford who might be the nicest guy in the league.

    I LOVE HIM! Well, Maybe the person that stabbed him was the thug.
    He almost died and came back playing AMZING basketball
    He is so underrated.

    So how is Paul Pierce a thug again?

    1. thug

    As Tupac defined it, a thug is someone who is going through struggles, has gone through struggles, and continues to live day by day with nothing for them. That person is a thug. and the life they are living is the thug life.


    Doesn't sound like Paul Pierce or anyone else in the NBA for that matter.
