Bullard: "Hey, the good news is that we've got the Clippers next." Yeah, you belong on the Clippers, Bull. That or your full of it. What kind of pre-game arrogance/locker room banter/firing up Clips bull**** is Bull full of? Now, they will probably demolish us especially the way Bull and the Rockets are playing now. Sorry but I just think this is the stupidest statement in the world considering how bad we are playing as of late. Like we are playing so well right now that we can look forward to any game as being a "sure thing". I've had it with Bull, his arrogance, his no "D" attitude and shooting camp, his supposed experience, and his lame 2 point jump shot. This guy has to GO! PLEASE don't let Bull be on our team next season! PLEASE! I'll take Sam Mack's 3 over Bull's 3 any day. Their equivalent on D so that doesn't figure into the equation. Bull...you arrogant ass!!! Surfguy
Plus I don't think we are much better than the Clippers with Dream out & w/ Stevie in a slump. I wouldn't be surprised if lose this one.
On the basketball court Bullard is the biggest wussy in the NBA. He's the worst 6-10 rebounder ever to play the game, but he's a great inspiration for Bryce Drew. [This message has been edited by ROCKETBOOSTER (edited February 28, 2000).]
I don't care how good anyone can shoot the 3, if you are 1 dimensional you suck. He has to hit shots all the time or he can't contribute at all. We need to cut all 1 dimensional players.
Funny how when we were winning ppl were happy and now when we lose the blame goes on different players.
I have always maintained bullard was arrogant(along w/ him being the apawn of satan)...did u see his other quote about having people come to his camp..."come learn to shoot like me" or something to that effect...he's a good shooter but just b/c you have a decent shot doesn't give u the right to be an ass.... ------------------ Can you see the horns emerging out of Matt Bullard's head? The antichrist has come...
Hey, no one has ever accused Bullard of being politically correct, but he does have a point! The Clips are BAD!
Has Bullard ever dove to the floor for a loose ball ever in his career? Just wondering. Rudy t. is partly to blame for this concietdness by Bullard. It's obvious Bullard's ego has elevated a little since Rudy T. plays him and treats Carlos Roger like the scrub.
Barkley would have said the same thing. ------------------ If you tell a joke in the forest, but nobody laughs, was it a joke?--Steven Wright
I don't know why everyone is complaining about Bullard. Personally, after taking that waxing by the Lakers, I'd be happy to get waxed by the Clippers -- it couldn't possibly hurt as bad. It doesn't seem to me to be pompous to welcome a game with the Clips. Nor does Bullard seem pompous to me. Actually, I always thought him rather witty. As for using his skill as a measurement of his license to talk, didn't everyone roundly bask Karl Malone for making just that argument?
On that note, I will bring up what is possibly my favorite quote from Barkley back in the 1992 Olympics, before they were going to square off against Angola: Quinn Buckner: "Charles, what do you know about Angola?" Charles Barkely: "They in trouble. They in serious trouble."
I think Bullard's just trying to be funny...I don't think he's full of himself. ------------------ Francis+Charles+Dream-Pippen= Rockets 2000 NBA Champions Houston Rockets Space Center
Bullard is hilarious. He's right about the Clippers, he's totally aware of his liabilities as a player and chooses to make light of them in a self-deprecating style of humor that is refreshing in a league full of 3rd person interviewees. Does anyone honestly think the Clippers have any pride left anyway?
3rd-person interviewees. I can see Bullard giving us a Shaq-daddy comment: "The Bull is like the hypotenuse triangle, no one can figure out the hypotenuse triangle. You can print that." Shaq really said that.
did u see his other quote about having people come to his camp..."come learn to shoot like me" or something to that effect...he's a good shooter but just b/c you have a decent shot doesn't give u the right to be an ass.... Did you see the REST of that quote? You know, the part that he says they sure don't come to learn to play defense because he sucks defensively? Or did providing the quote in context ruin your argument that's he was being arrogant there? [This message has been edited by shanna (edited February 28, 2000).]
Well, you can tell Bullard's not on this BBS right about now... because he's lighthearted in a time of anguish. If this was physical, there'd be rope involved. The season's practically gone, so lighten up a little.
