Blair nearly breaks a "couple of arms"

[portnoy]

Just now caught this. Those are 2 separate sentences. Go back to 3rd grade English class, please.

Please point out the verb in the second sentence. Class is dismissed.

I am done communicating about this foolishness. Have a great day everyone and "GO SPURS GO"

On the Blair subject, he definitely has pauses and breaks in his interviews, but it seemed like he has an answer to the question and then decides it'd be better to judt focus on his play and nothing else. For instance, when he was asked about whose game his own compared to he said something like "Well a lot of people compare me to.." and then paused and shook his head and said "alot of people say a lot of things, I can't think of them right now." I think he's just saying he can't think of them so he doesn't end up promoting himself, and Pop has been the same way when fielding questions about Blair, reserved. After the 19 board game his quote was "he has a knack for the boards," the reporter laughed, and Pop laughed, because of the ridiculous understatement of it.

I've been thinking spurstrodamus just needs to shut up for a while now. He always says like this.

I hope for 2 things for Blair

1) That he isn't as stupid on the court as he is in life.
2) That McDyess only plays about 25 MPG in the regular season, so Blair can get some extra minutes and to lessen the chances of McDyess turning into Kurt Thomas.

Your pretentiousness is controlling your shallow perception. You sound like an incapacitated Lakers fan trying to stir up some responses for self-fulfillment.

Blair simply isn't comfortable with interviews or doesn't care for them.

I think he doesn't like them.

he might be stupid but he sure is making some money playing basketball

"Answer questions?" is NOT a complete sentence. stop being so asinine and just shut up for now - no one wants to hear you speak, and clearly you don't know what the heck you're talking about.

Maybe, but there's a reason he fell to the spot he did. And it isn't just all on his ACL's, or lack thereof. If I had the 10th pick in the draft, I'd be real hesitant to draft someone so obviously stupid. I'm thankful he is stupid, though, because if he wasn't... we wouldn't have had a shot to grab him.

Maybe if he was 'smart' enough to be on a video advocating snitches being shot dead like Carmelo, he could have been a top 3 pick...

I believe that the "snitches be shot dead" policy, brought forth in the now famous Carmelo v. "the Snitches" tapes, is a valid philosophical stance that Mr. Anthony eloquently sums up during the course of the interview. He is actually citing his prepared sop re year thesis, "The Effect of Snitching in Modern Urban Settings", sub. "S ches, Who Shall Recieve Them?". We could all learn something from Mr. Melo.

Really? Are we listening to the same interviews here? It reminds me of if you'd ask an average second grader a question about long division. He'd have a similar answering style to Blair's average answer to a reporter's question. It's like he can't even put a sentence together correctly half of the time. It's almost a stutter, but it doesn't really have to do with his speech. It's more like a 'brain stutter'.

Yeah, really. He sounds to me like he wants to kick the reporters' asses and that he hates having to do that . I pick up a chip-on-the-shoulder vibe, but I don't hear stupidity.

Ever heard him speak? Answer questions?

Fortunately, Toastmaster style speaking ability is not a requirement for an NBA player.

I'm old enough to remember a classic response to a reporter by one of the all time great rebounders the league has ever seen--Moses Malone.

A reporter asked him, "Moses, why did you not play tonight?"

Moses replied, "Foot hurt." End of interview

People can use perfect grammar and have large vocabularies and still be stupid.

And Spurstrodamus, please stop being so coy about the racism stuff. Everyone knows you used to post as "Spurssupremacist" and repeatedly said you were an advocate of race supremacy.

[NoOptionB]

Blair is not even bad in interviews.

This hate stems from something else!

Did he get banned when he used that screen name?

Wow! For a white supremacist, rooting for an NBA team must be a conflicting experience.
