Sheed: NBA going soft

Al Calavicci · Nov 28, 2009

Big deal...guys 15 years ago would be calling him soft.

15 years before that they would say the same thing...

I don't care how tough you are... nobody can withstand getting kneed full-force in the balls. You can't take it, Yao can't take it, Dwight can't take it, hell... even...

Duke Nukem can't take it.

The whining here is out of control.

First, Bosh on that play likely overreacted to cover up the fact that he made a horrible, horrible defensive play. He was able to get up just fine. I like Bosh as a person and a player but man is he soft.

Second, people claim that the officials call the games tight to somehow advantage the Celtics (the Raptors shot way more free throws than the Celtics even though the Raptors hardly took a shot within fifteen feet of the basket; and the refs called TWO technicals on that play), and in the same breath claim that every time Pierce makes contact with an opposing player should be an offensive foul. He barely touched Rasho Nesterovic on that play. More likely he beat him off the dribble because he had a speed mismatch, which is I feat I could probably manage.

Drawing contact and taking charges is part of the game, though I think that the NBA needs to cut down on the number of fouls called. The main problem is when certain star players like Chris Paul have seizures every time someone touches them. I don't agree with Sheed that Hedo is particularly guilty, but I could be wrong.

LOL, if everybody was allowed to use the off arm to wipe away defensive players you could dribble like Ariza and never get the ball stolen. What Paul Pierce did to Bosh was Malone-esque, who the hell leads with their knees to dunk?

I think Rasheed is a really immature punk. Moreover, I don't think he's very good for the game of basketball. The things that his presence encourages... and it's fine if he thinks these things but I wish he'd shut the hell up about it all.

lol Here's the dunk over Bosh. He got kneed in the nuts first and then dunked on. Talk about a double Whammy.

Pierce kneed Bosh on the nuts. How are you supposed to react if someone knees you on the nuts? Drawing contact is different from getting kneed in your private parts. Unless you're Gold Member, I don't know any exercise or technique that will strengthen your nuts to the point where getting kneed wouldn't hurt

pp is a punk. that dunk just confirms it.

pp, kg, sheed... boston has become a team of punks.

everyone can talk like a man, but his action speaks louder than his words. that play should be a flagrant 2.

That's where Sheed blows his credibility. What he said was true but his own teammate is a big part of the problem.

Well, he did say something to the effect of "Thank God I don't have much left"

soydeedo · Nov 29, 2009

And now Mr. Sheed has been fined for his comments. We apparently don't value opinions in this league.

http://www.nba.com/2009/news/11/29/fines/index.html?ls=iref:nbahpt2

Boston Celtics forward Rasheed Wallace has been fined $30,000 for public criticism of the officials following the Celtics 116-103 win over Toronto on Friday, November 27 in Boston.

Jeff Green dunked on Chuck Hayes, looked right at him and yelled in his face but didnt get called for anything. I guess the Thunder isnt interesting enough to be taken seriously.

AXG · Nov 30, 2009

I hate how the league rewards floppers instead of punishes them.

Can't help but notice that Pierce gets away with shoving away Nesto with the off-hand...I've seen all premier offensive players do that to a degree, but isn't that an offensive foul?
Click to expand...

if he's facing the basket you can't put a hand on him, they don't call it unless you shove their body, nesto was reaching he slapped it away, no foul 99/100

Pierce's stare-down after giving a cheap-shot was ridiculous. Kicking guys in the nuts doesn't make you tough.

i love sheed

More Euros in the league = More soft players
