How appropriate that a Laker fan would feel like you should give up too soon. Your team is playing a pretty outmanned team, considering no McGrady...
Yeah, that was pretty much my reaction. In fact, if all the NBA executives would get an elbow in some sort of tutoring class they might appreciate...
Let's just hope Ron doesn't make it "me against Kobe". That could be disastrous for the team's performance tonight. We can't have Ron be a...
Methinks maybe Ron is more clever than people think. Maybe he instantly saw the opportunity to bring out in the light what Bryant gets away with a...
Very good chance the Rockets take this one. Everybody needs to play big but keys are great defense, Brooks needs to have a good game, and few...
Yep. Totally agree. I think Ron gets it, too.
Have to disagree. Fisher's explanation WAS trying to get away with something. He painted his intent (I've never had violent intent to hurt...
It is something to be somewhat concerned about. How many young guys come into the league every year and how many do we hear about that had to be...
After looking at this again, Ron does have his forearm on Kobe's neck, pushing forward. But I don't think that rises to the same potential...
I deliberated on whether or not to comment on this comment. I assumed it would be obvious that I wasn't saying the Rockets are champions, as in,...
I'm glad they got home court but I agree with Adelman and Yao, homecourt is fragile at best. Since I assume that Kobe will be left untouched by...
Couldn't agree more! Speaking of inspiring others... if we judge by what he has brought out in many fans (i.e., our reaction) then what do we...
If he maintains his high level of behavior I think it is possible. But even if he doesn't his contribution will be somewhat like JVG's. This team...
Some will overlook the personality and say it is so. But I don't think even on that level he is as good as Jordan was.
Thanks. I don't start threads very often -- when I get really exercised about something. And last night was over the top for me. As far as...
Yes, I bet he gets a bizarre reaction to "walking into a room". I think the conversation would get quiet but not because of his towering personality.
Precisely. I didn't say I doubt they will win. But if last night's game is any indication, the Rockets may be fighting what seems to be a...
Trouble is, too often we separate an athlete's character from his skill. It's sort of like a beautiful women, who when she opens her mouth sounds...
I forgot to put one other thought in my original post -- lost in my notes. The other irony is the contrast between Ron Artest and Kobe Bryant...
(As I've mentioned before, if I don't respond in a timely fashion to posts directed at me, it's because my schedule doesn't allow for monitoring...
