    It's just a name dude, I know many people with a bachelors that aren't that smart just have the ability to spit stuff back in verbatim. Even working towards a masters I can tell you most of my peers are not that smart but just driven. I'm not saying Battier's dumb just not very well spoken obviously.

    I can't believe anybody would hate Shane Battier. I will miss him.

    They normally come from the agent. Raja said he and williams were watching sportscenter and when it came across the ticker, they thought it was a joke and started laughing. Williams called his agent and found it was true.

    been a battier hater...over his deficiencies on the court but you can't...


    and i mean


    can't....


    get classier or what the quintessential athlete should behave like when it comes to shane.


    To those hammering shane, seriously guys? Get your head out of the sand. He has been the most mature person this organization has had in over a decade.

    A couple. Look I'm still angry about this trade and had no idea Battier had close ties to Memphis. I hope he can find his way back to the Rockets at maybe $21million for 3 more seasons. We got room for that this off season.

    Good Luck Shane. You deserve better than Houston & Memphis. ;)
    Maybe he'll fair better in politics after basketball?

    Morey might have been busy finalizing the AB deal or working with the league office to make the trades official. I think Morey likely called soon after he got free.

    We don't have any chance of getting Battier in FA. I hope he goes to a contender and wins a championship.

    I dont see why it would be necessary. Most of them are millionaires or close to it. In Battier's case I imagine he'll get a hotel for a week or so, then rent out a nice loft or something for the remainder of the season.

    ^^ forgot to add..i believe teams usually stick to the same hotels from year to year at every city, or try to. In Brooks' case, he can hit up Keith jones and ask for the info for the hotel they normally stay at. I wouldn't be surprised if KJ made the reservation for him though.
