Yeah, the Suns should have been really thankful that the NBA violated the Magic Johnson rule to allow Steve Nash to score 5 points with blood pouring down his face. Give them an inch...
If the NBA awarded championships for whining and cheap shots, Dallas would have swept to the title last year.
i dont get the confusion by anyone... Amare and Diaw both ran towards the fight... or at least, I saw that much... if im not mistaken, wasnt Diaw right in the midst of the headline pic on ESPN.com?? so... what else did you need to prove he was involved? Amare...? was being blatantly held back by 3 fuckin coaches and he was not headed towards the fight?? be serious.
whining is something every team does. it tans my hide when so many other teamfans bitch about one teamfans' whining and then it's okay when their team whines... ie, sunsfan, mavsfan, spursfan... either way - all teams whine... so fuckin' what?
Galloway is a complete idiot. I'm the biggest opponent of the rule that you could find and even I know that it isn't promoting thuggery or encouraging cheapshots.
It's what losers do. What they'll do next is try to act like it's all just CIA and spirit of competition shit when the series is over and talk about how much respect they have blah blah blah. See if those same posters don't do exactly that. The only ones that haven't are the Maverick fans, because they really just have no class.Quote:

Well since Jason Terry's punch was just self defense, as was Josh Howard throwing Bruce Bowen to the floor, Galloway wouldn't know thuggery if it dangled its balls across his nose.Quote:

Why is everyone whining about how whiny the Spurs are? Isn't that hypocritical and logocally a self-contradiction?
Yeah, that's what makes Kornheiser's takes on the series so great. He watches American Idol and is asleep by 9:15.Quote:

Randy Galloway wouldn't make any friends in Dallas writing an article sympathetic to the Spurs, even if it means following the NBA rules. He at least knows where his bread is buttered.
Chump, I've never once blamed the refs for any loss regarding the mavs. Not once and you know it. I saw Nash get suckerpunched and his teammates coming to his aid. I didn't see them touch anyone else. I guess now is the time for your patented "altercation" response. They certainly didn't seem concerned about any altercation. They seemed concerned about their teammate. I could say Duncan came out on the court and you would respond "no altercation". I saw Duncan, Amare, and Diaw step onto the court with their only intent being concern for a teammate.Quote:

Glad to know you can read minds.Quote:

If you let them go, what happens next time?
Please, don't feel sorry for them. :lolQuote:

I don't believe that about 99 either.
Wrong. Amare was past the point where Nash was when the ref told him to get back to the bench. People like you that will either repeat something they hear without checking their facts or will just outright lie are the reason this rule is so perfect. Mandatory suspension. No discussion. No mitigating factors. No extenuating circumstances. Altercation + leaving bench = suspension.Quote:

And 5 years from now, no one will remember this, just like no one remembers some Mav got Suspended in one of the Mavs-Spurs playoff games...
(see? I already forgot who it was, and for what game? Have you?)
I saw all three of them with blood in their eyes wanting to kill members of he other team.Quote:

Don't leave the bench area, don't get suspended. I don't understand why people can't get this.
Good one. Fuckin Terry, what an asshole.
