Yeah... go ahead and play hardball, kid. Let's see how well that works out for you.
Posted Monday May 13, 2013, About: Rose considered comeback
I've lost a lot of respect for Derrick Rose. He has shown that he has so much less heart than his teammates, who are busting their butts trying to challenge a healthier, deeper, champtionship-winning opponent. Rose has been cleared to play for MONTHS now. And when his teammates needed him most, he refused to help them.
Rose is a punk. I've lost a lot of respect for him. He's been cleared to play for MONTHS, but refuses to work. He's living the high life, collecting millions of free dollars while sitting on his butt.

Sitting on his butt, getting richer and refusing to work while his teammates who actually have HEART are out there fighting hard against a healthier, deeper team. Rose needs to get his butt on the court or just file for retirement now. Play or get lost.
Posted Monday May 06, 2013, About: Magic Johnson wants LeBron to get more TV exposure
Why isn't he in more commercials? Because the egomaniacal, self-serving "Decision" TV special ruined a lot of goodwill that he had. People respect his talent, but that doesn't meant they like him personally.

Who cares? Where the rule that says everyone has to be on their knees for LeBron?

Posted Wednesday March 27, 2013, About: White won't play in D-League playoffs
I can't tell whether to feel bad for this guy or not, because I can't tell if *he* realizes what's actually going on - that as soon as they're no longer legally required to pay him money, he will never play professional basketball again. That seems like such a waste of talent. It seems like the Rockets *want* to work with him, but he's not really willing to work with them.
Posted Friday March 22, 2013, About: Rockets in the dark, mum after White bolts D-League
I feel that mental health should be treated by teams the same way as they'd deal with physical health issues. But what Royce White doesn't seem to understand is that teams have expectations for certain levels of performance, and not all health issues can be accommodated for the needs of the profession.

To be a professional athlete requires superior health conditioning in all regards. *Most* people don't qualify for that level of competition. It sucks for Royce that he's so close... but no. This just isn't the profession for him. It sucks, but not everyone gets their dream job.
Posted Thursday March 07, 2013, About: Gay still irked by Grizzlies' treatment
Gay had five seasons to prove his worth. Meanwhile, the Grizz are 11-4 since the trade. Is there any realistic probability that they'd be much better than that with his bloated contract?
Posted Wednesday January 30, 2013, About: Bryant adds 'devastating' twist for Lakers
I'm going to need to see the Lakers get above .500 before I'm willing to believe they've genuinely turned a corner.
Posted Wednesday January 30, 2013, About: Allen Iverson declines NBA D-League
That was most likely AI's last shot at returning to the NBA.
Posted Monday December 03, 2012, About: LeBron in Cavs uniform not out of question
What a LeDouche.
Posted Thursday November 29, 2012, About: Could the Miami Heat deal Dwyane Wade for Al Jefferson?
With Wade in sharp decline and becoming even more prone to injury, it wouldn't necessarily be a bad move. The Heat belong to LeBron James now. Wade is not the star of the team anymore.

But, I can't see any such trade happening. Regardless of anything else, Wade's name and star-power is too great to be swapped for Al Jefferson. Tactically, it might not be a bad move, but it will never happen.
Posted Wednesday November 21, 2012, About: Wade eyes Wednesday return
Wade continues to show signs of his decline. He'll still have flashes of brilliance, but they're going to reduce in number. His reckless style of play has been fun to watch at times, but it has taken a toll on his body.
Posted Monday October 22, 2012, About: NBA owners may approve jersey sponsor logos this week
Lame. I've bought team-logo merchandise in the past, including jerseys. It probably won't make a difference, but I can guarantee that I will never buy any team merchandise that includes an advertisement for a separate product on it.
Posted Monday October 15, 2012, About: Blake Griffin's offensive game is improving
The real question is how Flop Griffin will adjust to the anti-flopping rules that will eliminate his main move.
Posted Monday October 01, 2012, About: Griffin may be game's next Mailman
Flop Griffin is one of the NBA's most overrated players. He's got a LONG way to go before any comparison to the likes of Malone even remotely makes sense.
Posted Friday September 21, 2012, About: CP3 still seething at Gasol
Oh, look. Chris Paul is whining about something. Imagine that.
Posted Wednesday August 15, 2012, About: No interest in Oden?
I feel bad for the dude, but I also understand why teams aren't willing to take the big risk on him right now. Best thing Oden could do is to get on a D-League team. No, it's not as glamorous as the NBA, but it *is* professional basketball. If he gets out there on the floor and shows some improved durability, there's a good chance that an NBA scout is going to notice, and then maybe he'll get that call.
Posted Wednesday May 23, 2012, About: Paul's recruiting pitch: 'This is where you want to be'
I'm not buying it. The Clippers have a horrible owner, who has repeatedly shot his own team in the feet for many, many years. There's a reason this team has never achieved much during his tenure. It's going to take more than one *ok* season before I believe that the Clippers have a changed culture and that they're the "place to be."
