okay... Shane just moved up in my estimation... "I'm big Sinatra guy" Shane.. you are the only Dookie whom I can say I truly appreciate.
Shane Battier : "It doesn't matter if you play at home or on the road, it doesn't matter who you play [playoffs]. We need to make sure we are healthly and on the same page in April, March and comming into the playoffs" I've been saying this for ages...
The same contrived, pc bullsh!t is what I would guess. Shane is a politician, he is not a guy I would look to for the 'unfiltered' truth. May be if it was Artest or even Deke or Rafer I would be a bit more interested. You tune in to Shane Battier on radio to learn of his taste in music and culture, not for his opinions about the Rockets.
You don't appreciate me? Somewhere out there Grant Hill, Jason Williams, and Chris Duhon are crying because they don't have the love of the avg. fan.
Man, you are all the glass is half empty lately. Shane is a guy that is fun to listen to BECAUSE he isn't all basketball. Ron Artest is the same way.
What else can he actually say that hasn't been said already by the media or Ron, rafer, adelman? And that's the way Shane is. He's never negative in any situation, so it's more his personality than being a "politician", i don't expect him to act any differently in the locker room or at home.
