    You don't touch the NBA Players' Union President.

    Adam Silver was given the choice of no suspension or waking up to a wolf's head in his bed.

    NBA knows Dantoni isn't going to play him next game anyways. That's why they didn't suspend him.

    I guess none of the fans who Dieng got pushed into spilled their beers. That would've warranted a suspension for sure.

    I bet a 100k fine for CP is next. Silver sounds to me like the sensitive type, he probably feels CP is undermining him by publicly stating he'll cover Green's fine.

    In the next State Farm ad, CP and his agent have a jovial conversation with Gerald Green about liability insurance.

    I hope GG does get bench so I can hear more whiners in this forum to complain and make more threads about JJ. We are Leading the whole league, just trust the Coach's decision and our team regardless of who gets to play.

    What a stupid post.

    Just because we are winning doesn't mean we as fans can't see an obviois inferior player getting playing time to a superior player

    Complain some more, not gonna change GG is gonna sit on the bench cause he's a streaky shooter. JJ at least has bb iq, I don't like it that JJ and GG are taking up mins of Anderson who is suppose to be doing his dam job with the amount we paid him, but guess what im not btching about it in every thread cause we are winning.

    So I did some rough calculations.....

    Harden Rockets + Adidas salary:

    Rocket salary: $228 mil
    Adidas salary: $200 mil
    ..........................................Total: $428 mil



    ($428) mil total salary / ($25k) night life experience pocket change to spend = 17,000

    17,000 = the # of nights Harden can have a night life experience with amount of $25k pocket change to spend



    (17,000) number of nights / (365) days in a year
    = 46

    46 = the # of years Harden can continuously have a night life experience with amount of $25k pocket change to spend per night



    (46) the # of years Harden can continuously have a night life experience with amount of $25k pocket change to spend per night MINUS (6) # of years he's already been with the Rockets currently having the night life experience = 40

    40
    = the # of years Harden has remaining to continuously have a night life experience with amount of $25k pocket change to spend per night



    Hardens current age (28) + (40) the # of years Harden has remaining to continuously have a night life experience with amount of $25k pocket change to spend per night = 68

    68 = the age Harden will not have $25k of pocket change to spend for his night life
    68 = the age Harden will retire as a Houston Rocket with stacks of championships



    Doing these calculations just made me realize how poor I really am... and I am currently at work reevaluating my entire life decisions.

    Joe Johnson isn't a streaky shooter. He just sucks dick sy it and on top of that he has the slowest feet I've ever seen of a wing player. He's horrible at switching because he can't keep up his feet with the switched offensive player.

    He sucks.

    But it does mean that continued threads about the topic are pointless. If if’s all confined to one thread ok.....but do we need 5+ threads on the same fan whining topic?

    Dieng did push Paul - that's deserving a technical. Green SHOVED Dieng INTO courtside FANS.

    I'm surprised Green didn't get a suspension for that to be honest. Maybe because he was contrite

    It’s cuz Artest and Chuck weren’t in the game. Leaving bench automatic suspensions.

    Artest getting kicked out for being elbowed by Kobe still pisses me off today.

    NBA is monetizing the league big time.

    I wish you hadn't posted that. I still get livid every time I see it, and if it's posted, I can't stop myself from watching the damn thing. Since I did, some thoughts. Watching it all play out on TV, the coverage really, really pissed me off. The incessant babbling about Fisher, "being one of the toughest players in the league," as if that justified what he did. Bullshit. Fish was a little thug on the court. He wasn't tough, he was (and is) an *******. And Bryant? The cheap foul he laid on Artest was as bad as the foul Fisher gave Luis, and Bryant completely got away with it, getting what he hoped for - Artest getting booted, when it should have been a foul on Bryant. The phony whining from Jackson about how unfair it was for Fish to get tossed, when he knew damn well that foul was going to earn an ejection.

    I well and truly hate the Lakers. They rank with the Jazz, at least for me, with Boston coming in 3rd. I still remember Akeem getting tossed in the '86 WC Finals. Riles sent the dude in to do a hit job with hopes that Akeem would get booted, thinking that if Dream was out, they could take the Rockets, and they desperately needed to win that game. Fortunately, another Rockets hero, Ralph Sampson, had other ideas, making what is still seen as one of the most stunning shots in NBA history to eliminate Los Angeles. Yeah, can't stand the Lakers. They are the media's darlings, and they suck.
