    Dampier is like a running joke in the NBA... and he's the only one not in on it.

    "There are several circumstances where you can assign a technical for an elbow, and we said that's fine, we don't have a problem with that....But when you look at that video, there's no question that wasn't an elbow with intention to harm, there wasn't even an elbow thrown," Cuban said. "By any reasonable standard, that change should have been made. I'm sure the ref didn't know he could make that change, which is a misapplication of the rules."

    This is what I understood it to mean - That the refs had the ability to reverse dampier's technical and didn't. Whether they knew they could or not still makes it a judgment decision.

    First up, Shaq quotes are so very often beautiful. I can't wait for him to be a commentator after he retires. He'll probably end up in beef with Barkley at some point leading to classic exchanges and pot shots.

    Next, the worst part about the dunk, Dahntay Jones dunked it, caught the ball before it landed and handed it right to the ref. Dampier meanwhile appears to have immediately flinched and fell back once he knew it was coming.

    Dampier calling someone soft would be the equivalent to Karl Malone laughing at R.Kelly for having sex with an underage girl.

    Any sentence using the names Landry and Dampier simultaneously must do so in the context of a comparison, such as: Compared to Landry, who is a beast of a man, Dampier is a Mav humping, hero-in-his-own-mind, fat tub of dancing queen loser who quivers and snivels in the cold shade of the God Bird's shadow.

    He's a tool, just like the rest of that team, he must have learned it from their owner.

    I believe Daryl Morey already registered "RocketfansLoveErickDampier@gmail.com" for next July. Dampier is a pretty good center and may be undervalued.

    Hmmm...beating the dead horse here, but...then that means...that flagrant attempt by AB to prevent his shot was probably not intended to harm Dampier, eh?...Hmm...
