    Naw, but what that POS Ainge did on Elie deserved an ass whooping. I can't believe Elie didn't do the one hit the quitter on his pansy ass.

    It was a dunk to put the nail in the coffin. While it would seem to most that the game was over, Phoenix showed not to count them out too early that series. In all honesty there is almost no way they could have come back, but the Rockets had every right to finish them off.

    That play right there is why Ainge was booed every time he touched the ball in Houston for the rest of his career.

    Probably why Horry tossed a towel in Ainge's face later.

    Ainge has a history with towels.

    Just watched that video twice now. It's starting to really piss me off again.

    if we were losing a game and the other team dunked like that against us in the closing seconds, everyone would be calling him classless.

    I think i'd be more pissed with the Rockets for letting them win huge like that.

    I remember watching this live but Worrell and Murphy were commentating the game. Anyone have this footage? I couldn't find it on youtube..

    Considering that this was in the playoffs and how the series was going, I say, "Throw it dowwwn, big man! Throw it dowwwn!"

    An exclamation mark is an absolute must when you have the opportunity. It can demoralize them for the next game.

    I can only imagine the reaction if LeBron James did this in a playoff game.

    Bull. Half the team wasn't running back on defense. There was less than 10 seconds left and the Rockets were up 14. Cassell or Dream could have have easily just held on to the ball and let time expire.

    That dunk by Hakeem gave Sam 10 assists for the game.

    This poll should be about Danny Ainge and his lil B move. I bet Gina Gaston could kick his ass.

    And what Hakeem did was just putting the nail in the coffin, old school style. It wasn't his problem that the Suns choked a big Greg Oden one.

    The Dunk by the dream was simply BAD AZZ. Period.

    Danielle Angina was a little wuss for that punk move.
