    I don't dispute that this is a soft team, but if you push a player down while he's trying to dunk, that's a flagrant. The stars in the league might get away with some pushing and shoving every once in a while but a rookie scrub like Boki won't. What's more, should Gerald Wallace get hurt on the play Boki will get suspended. So he had two choices: 1. get a charge, he didn't know when Wallace was gonna take off so he can't do that effectively. 2. jump up, grab Wallace's arms and pull him down. He might get a technical for that but it's a 3 point play any ways you look at it.

    I saw the dunk, Wallace stepped on the free throw circle. That's quite a bit inside the FT line. Still, great dunk.

    Intellectual snobbery. Classic.

    BTW, nevermind is 2 words. Of course, I'm sure you thought it was one after obsessing over your Nirvana album in the early '90s. It's OK to point out a mistake, but you might want to be careful, Mr. Twain, about using ridicule.

    Amen to that, he was a freak! Back when they had Rod Grizzard (resides in the where-are-they-now-file) and Gerald, they had two guys who were both monster dunkers. Man, that team was fun to watch.

    Grizzard still thought it was a good idea to skip his senior year when he was cut by ATL.

    I have awful expectations for this year. :(

    Mo is gone, and Pettway will be a starter. Maybe Kennedy Winston can show up and lead this team.

    Thanks. You see the no edit down at the bottom of the page, don't you? "Oh well, whatever...nevermind......." ;)

    Doh!!! :eek:

    Back to geometry class for me.

    BTW, EGN. I only saw your post because someone else quoted you (ignore list). I hate for you to waste your time like that. :p
