    Uh, no. That's pure effort.


    And then a meteor would've fell out of the sky and crushed him into oblivion.


    *insert youtube video of T-Mac letting Jamario Moon waltz in for a dunk*

    Nice lesson for the kids. If it looks difficult, don't even bother trying!

    how bout simply rooting for the other team because they're actually a fan of the bulls, like how they defend and rebound as a team, fan of drose, or like their bench/depth?

    One could say that a true rockets fan wouldn't root for any other team except for the rockets

    doesnt mean it was wise. if you try to block a guy that much bigger than you who has the momentum coming in for a dunk while you are flat footed under the basket, it will result in a foul plus the dunk.

    Wade is also arguably the most important player on that team. If you're the coach, you don't want him risking injury on a play like that.

    and you are saying this after being a rockets fan for how long?

    landing wrong on your foot or on someone else's foot can take you out of at least half a game. the Heat lost by 20 something points. if it was a close game and this play was near the end of the 4th quarter then fine.

    Tmac was trotting along with Moon from about half court. He could have grabbed him, he could have picked up his speed and moved in front of him, there are a number of things tmac could have done.

    Not much Dwade could have done. he didnt even have time to set up in front of the restricted area to draw a charge.



    you're right. they should try to block guys 6+ inches taller than them b/c that's smart defense and shows "effort". never mind that ducking out of the way and giving up 2 points is better than trying to go for a near impossible block and giving up a possible 3 points.
    sure thing Mom.

    Don't tell me that Dwayne Wade "shouldn't have attempted that block" ever again.
