Agree 100%

Oh, and dac, while Lebron may love Cleveland, do you really think he'll stay? When you're 25 (As he'll be) and a superstar is that really where you want to be?

If I was him, yes. Nothing as important to me as loyalty, even at that age.

His hometown? Yeah. He's LeBron. He's bigger than NY or Chicago. He can make more money in Cleveland. As of right now, Cleveland gives him a better chance to win than any of his other potential suitors. His reputation and loyalty will be questioned if he leaves, tainting a pretty much perfect reputation. There is really no reason to leave.

I just hate dirty players is all. I depise Bruce Bowen and Kobe (and several others) as well. If you're out there trying to hurt someone then you're not playing the game right in my opinion. Hopefully he'll get what's coming to him though.


For a more interesting discussion, what are everyone's top 5 favorite NBA players that DON'T play for your favorite team?

Mine:
- Dirk
-Tony Parker
- Mike Miller
- Hedo
- Aaron Brooks

Agreed. What I love most about physical games are, like you said, the hating each other (a respectful hate) and the pace the game works at. When the refs are tooting their horns every 30 seconds no player is going to be playing their best. Physical = intense and exciting.
Kobe isn't a dirty player, he's an intense player with a killer instinct. I find it odd that you actually LIKE games that are safe and boring, where everyone plays nice and pats each other's asses. That's not a fun game to watch at all.

I also find it interesting that you go out of your way to point out Kobe's "dirty plays", but when Dahntay commits TWO dirty plays in back-to-back games, I don't hear a peep from your biased mind.

By the way, glad to see you love the whities of the NBA! :laughing:

Mine:

- Chris Paul
- Joe Johnson
- Chris Bosh
- Hedo Turkoglu
- Mehmet Okur

Don't hold me to that list!

For all the Nuggets lovers and Laker haters out there: http://rumorsandrants.com/2009/05/th...r-nuggets.html

Dwayne Wade
Brook Lopez
Brandon Roy
Paul Millsap
Trevor Ariza

Two lol? Seriously though, the whities are hilarious because they always look so awkward and unathletic.


I think Kobe is definitely a dirty player. Is he intense and does he have a killer instinct? Yes, more so than probably any other player. But he's not shy about throwing elbows either.


And here's my favorite dirty play of all time:

Dac

Do you think Michael Jordan and Larry Bird were dirty players?

I haven't watched enough of them to make an assessment.
