MHizzle85 Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 QUOTE (rangercal @ May 6, 2009 -> 07:56 PM) Alston will probably be missing the next game. Regardless I laughed, that reminded me of something that would happen in a basketball game in gym class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WilliamTell Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 I can't believe I'm actually siding with Ron Artest. I had no problem with him going up to Bryant. A technical foul was alright but I didn't agree with an ejection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balta1701 Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 Derek Fisher and Rafer Alston receive suspensions, no time off for Kobe or Artest. Kobe's was moved to a Flagrant 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kobe's was moved to a Flagrant 1. well deserved for d-fish. that was out of character and completely uncalled for. it's so funny watching the lakers trying to be "tough" after they got their asses knocked around last year by Boston. It's not in their nature to play tough physical basketball. I sooo hope the Rockets go up 3-1 this weekend. Can't stand the talk radio out here one more day.

DBAHO Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Rondo's going to go nuts in game 3 against Anthony Johnson. Unless they start Lee at PG, which they could actually do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 I find it interesting that the NBA has found its testicles when it comes to suspensions. There isn't a chance that Fishers slap was worse than Rondos two point takedown of Kirk Hinrich into the scorers table. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DBAHO Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 And that'll be game 3 to us thank you very much. Lewis and Turk have had great games. They play like that for the rest of the series, Boston have got no chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balta1701 Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 There was a time it was thought pitchers wouldn’t benefit from steroids. They’ve tested positive as often, if not more than, hitters. There was a time it was thought just power hitters would benefit from steroids. Speed guys have tested positive, too. There was a time it was thought steroids would make a player’s body deteriorate rapidly and almost immediately. Players have used steroids to help recovery from injury. We’re in a time it’s thought steroids weren’t used in the NBA. How long until that becomes past tense, too? Pistons blog. Some Before/After Lebron photos there also.

ESPECIALLY any pertaining to Lebron. They're still pissed he scored like 27 straight on them in the playoffs. 2.) Lebron came into the league at like, what, 18? 19? He's still physically maturing. He's due to get stronger/bigger/faster/etc. That's how things go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's due to get stronger/bigger/faster/etc. That's how things go. Great points... To add to that, LeBron only weighs about 15 more lbs than he did in high school, which makes it reasonable to assume he added that weight/muscle normally. Yes, he's a lot more defined, but I'd say that's pretty normal going from a high school workout routine (if he even had one, which it wouldn't surprise me if he didn't since he's so naturally big) to a NBA-type workout routine. It's really not that surprising at all that he could look like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lebron was huge in high school as well. The guy has always been an absolute freak. Maybe he was using in HS as well but if you look at him in HS when he was 16 and 17 it really isn't that shocking that he looks like he does now.
