Memphis/Sacramento brawl Tonight was definitely one of the darkest nights of NBA history. During the game between the Memphis Grizzlies and Sacramento Kings, Mike Bibby and Jason Williams got into a heated verbal argument. Soon after, they started grabbing each other’s hair, and the fight transformed into a full-court brawl between the two teams. Here is the recap of what happened. Two minutes into the game, Memphis forward James Posey went on a one-man fastbreak, and turned it over with 22.6 seconds left on the shot clock. Kings guard Cuttino Mobley, who got the steal of the turnover, immediately started a two men fast break with forward Kenny Thomas. With 21.3 seconds left on the shot clock, Mobley turned it over to Posey, who again started a fast break, and turned it back to Thomas, who gives it right back to Posey… The entire process proceeded with astonishing speed. It lasted for 9 minutes without a stop of game. Mobley, Thomas and Posey together totaled 270 turnovers and steals, which broke many NBA records. In the mean times, just right before the first quarter was about to end, Kings guard Bibby and Grizzly guard Williams felt they had nothing to do on the court, so they started chatting with each other, which turned into an argument, and then a hair-grabbing fight, and then the full court brawl. Here is the transcript of the conversation: Bibby: “Dude, this games sucks!” Williams: “Yea, dawg, this is some serious (expletive).” Bibby: “By the way, (expletive), your team (expletive) sucks! After the trade (the one Bibby and Williams got traded for one another), my team is now awesome and your team sucks a bum. I am wayyyy better than you. And oh, you are white, and stop pretending to be black. It ain't working for you!" Williams: “yeah, at least I know I am white. But you? You (expletive) white or black? Oh, that’s right, you (expletive) don’t even know!” Bibby:" (expletive) (expletive) (expletive), (expletive)? (expletive), (expletive)! And the fight broke out. Quickly, the players on both teams joined the brawl, during which, Brad Miller, Stojakovic and Pau Gasol had the most memorable moments. Gasol: “Dude, stop pretending to be a soft euro. I am the KOSE (King of Soft Euros). You are white, but you ain't euro! So stop the impersonation. It's pathetic!” Miller: “(expletive)! At least I got a normal name. It isn't something (expletive) like ‘Paul’ without the (expletive) ‘L’!” Stojakovic: “That's (expletive) right! And what did you say about the KOSE again? I succeeded the KOSE title from Vlade two years ago, and you need to get in the (expletive) line! Gasol: “(expletive)! (expletive)! I don't (expletive) care, I am the real KOSE. I am I am I am!!!! Maaaaaaamá, (Spanish expletive)! Help me! Wahhhhhhhh!!!” (Spanish expletive)! So, a fight broke out among these three players with Gasol on the floor crying and his tear overloaded the Sacramento Fire Department water pump. Stojakovic and Miller, while laughing over Gasol, started painting each other’s toenails. In the meantime, a couple more fights broke out. Mike Fratello and Rick Adelman were kicking each other in the nuts for nearly 20 minutes, with Fratello claiming to be the Czar of NBA, while Adelman said he is the real leader since people think he looks like Hitler. Marv Alberts, the announcer who was covering the game, shouted "Yes!" every time Fratello's nuts got kicked. The brawl was brought to the attention of the commissioner David Stern shortly after the incident, who immediately confiscated the two team’s rights to compete with the Houston Rockets in the playoff standing and vowed to sentence the players and coaches involved to life in prison. “This is a (expletive) disgrace to our (expletive) league!” said a furious Stern. Players’ Association Chairman Billy Hunter argued that while the length of the sentence might be an acceptable compromise, the NBA prisoners have to be guaranteed by the league with $10 millions contract for each year being jailed, or a league-wide work stoppage might be imminent.
that's not cool... I thought for a sec this was real.. untill I looked at NBA.com and the game hadnt even started yet... ATLEAST add {FAKE} or something after the word BRAWL...
Just threw away 20 minutes and put it on the BBS for some fun , but didn't think the response would be this negative... Oh well, guess what, my team won tonight! Go Rockets!
It would be funnier if it would be more accurate.. Other than the fact that Bibby has no hair on his head, Cuttino Mobley did not play the entire game: C. Mobley - DNP -Lower back strain Good try
i thought the hair pull about bibby was done on purpose. i laughed thinking that was the point. i also liked the kose acronym.
i was kind of in a panic when i thought i missed a basketball brawl, but once i saw the game hadnt even started, i enjoyed the joke/prank.
