I can't wait for the NBA regular season to start. With that in mind, what are some quotes you'd like to hear during the upcoming season? Here are some I look forward to hearing: Yao Ming: "When you score on your opponent, you deflate their ego. But when you dunk on your opponent, you tear out their heart." Steve Francis: "I've learned that by elevating my teammate's games, I elevate my own." Shaq: "Yao Ming was unstoppable tonight. He looked like a 7'5" Hakeem out there." Piatkowski: "It's easy to score 15 a night off wide-open shots when everbody else gets doubled-teamed." Cuttino Mobley: "It was great to see my boy Moochie out there. He's been playing great for the Wizards."
Kelvin Cato : "It's nice to average 14 rebounds a game in 18 minutes, but I want to get more than 2 blocks in that time now. " Jeff Van Gundy : "Obviously the signing of Eric Piatkowski has turned us into a contender, but the stellar play of Bostjan Nachbar has really made us into a championship-caliber team, and Yao is a mother****ing mother****er in the paint. " Stevie : "Averaging a Triple Double hasn't been easy, but then again... it's been pretty easy." Cuttino Mobley : "I figured it was time to start passing the rock when Coach JVG told me I throw up more nasty **** than Robert Downey Jr. at a rave" Yao : "To all the haters out there, I have one thing to say... Never underestimate my left foot in your asses"
damn that was some great stuff moe. moochie: can anyone help get these splinters out of my ass? boki: oh, lemme show you, i've had lots of practice.
KG: It has been fun to play along with Yao and Francis. This ring feels much warmer than my all-star MVP trophy.
I'd probably have some of the ones like you guys, but then I'd be selfish and have something like: "And we couldn't have gone 82-0 if we didn't give RC Cola tickets to every game. I wonder how the government lets him not go school and still give him thousands in scholarships. But now that he's had a 2 foot growth spurt and runs a 4.1 40, he may decide to skip college. What a bright future for him. He's the next Coca-Cola." I don't care who says that, but the next would probably be Francis. "You know, ever since I saw Dallas beat Houston in the Superbowl, easily the best one ever, I've been happy...or something....radical." Yeah, that would be pretty cool.
Shaq - Yao is stronger, more skilled, and has a bigger **** than me. No wonder he keeps getting voted to the All Star team over me and outscored me 35 ppg to .5 ppg in the 2004 WCF.
Eddie Griffin: " And you guys were worried about the 4 position all summer and wanting to trade me......well, how you like me know!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" EG is a beast after Ewing coaches his a** off with him in practice
Cuttino Mobley: "They're all laughing and having a good time. It ain't so funny when we come back and run it into your butt, is it? IS IT? WE RAN IT INTO YOUR BUTT REAL GOOD!!! And I kinda liked the way it felt."
After droping 40 points, 20 rebounds, 10 dunks, 5 blocks against Shaq, Yao's comments on his dunks: This is not right. This is not my style. Allthough it feels great, I shouldn't have humuliated an NBA legend like Shaq this way.
Eric Piatkowski: "Man, we're really cookin' here. I heard the attendence for our last playoff series was comparable to the Led Zeppelin reunion tour. The new president-elect was even there!"
I really liked all your quotes Moe, but these two were especially good. The JVG one is awesome! How bout.... Karl Malone and Gary Payton: We just got outplayed by a better starting five. It doesn't matter what we've done over our careers, Houston's starters just outmatched us in this series.
