According to Mike Fratello, The Machine was a nickname he gave himself. IMO, you don't call yourself the machine when all you can do is hit standstill 3-pointers from the corner. And only doing it at a .424 clip with not even 2 3s made with ZERO 3point shootout crowns. Jason Kapono can call himself The Machine. Sasha Vujacic should just call himself Sasha. Hey, it fits his girly hair at the very least.
Lakers play-by-play guy Joel Meyers actually gave him that nickname. Joel Meyers is also a known douche around here, but that's another story I guess.

LOL at JVG: "he went a little skip to my lou, and then lost his mind!" LOLOLOOLOLOLOLOL LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO
Hey you owe me $20 million or something I came up with vujabich firstest! I said it before, Skip 2 My Lou is a baller on the streets if that's where you wanna take the game. I bet you they were talking trash earlier and Rafer stuffed Sasha pretty bad on that layup attempt. There was no need to play that kind of defense when you know you are going to get owned soon. Let Rafer have a little swagger. He needs his confidence. I got giddy like a little girl when I saw Rafer pulling out the streetball moves. There is no way in hell Vujacic could even watch Rafer if he went and1 on him. As was showcased by that embarrasing display of "Garbage-Time Great Defense" put on by The Vagine. LOL /thread
yeah I saw that too. Skip to my lou's skill was amazing but I really don't think that he should have done that. You can beat them but you should not insult them. Stay humble[/FONT], man.
How about some commentary... "Ohhhh Babbbbby, oooooo babbbbby"- (that Rucker Park commentator) To think. Me (and Clutch too probably) would have gladly traded Alston for a sack of potatoes a few months ago.
I'm sorry but what Rafer did is bush league. His team finally clinches the victory and so he starts toying with someone. I remember when something like this happened a few years ago it involved the Pacers and Pistons. Watch the video. As soon as he crosses half court he goes from running to a dead stop right in front of the Lakers guy. I used to do that when I played soccer to piss the other guy off and try to get him to do something stupid and get a card. Not only did Rafer do this but he continued jumping in front of him not letting him play defense. Then he starts spinning back and forth street ball style. Why does he need to do this up 13 late? He doesn't it was him just rubbing it in. What happened because of it. If you watched the game then you saw it. With 10 seconds left Scola got the ball and wanted to just stand until time ran out. However, Odom came up started bumping him and trying to poke the ball away. That's something that sends a lot of guys over the top. It could have resulted in a brawl and then with suspensions there goes the streak. I would assume when Adelman ran up to Rafer when the whistle blew he said cut that **** out this isn't And1 Mix Tape Tour.
