[spiff]

[ssaloon]

eto yung video ng brawl:

[cardo]

the nate vs smith thing reminds me of the pj brown vs charlie ward fight another knick brawl(with the heat) hehehe. the other one was the zo and LJ scufflen - where van gundy clinged to the leg of zo hehehe

[ssaloon]

potah gilbert arenas 60pts!!!!

[baludoy]

carmelo anthony with a suntok sabay takbo tactic...shades of a similar incident in the araneta before

yao ming trashtalking?! looks like he has finally fully assimilated himself in the gangsta culture of the nba

[theveed]

Hmmm

Maybe they want Melo and JR to sit down so that AI can get comfy with Denver hehe

[Altis6453]

read yao's lips

Bet he wouldn't talk any $hit once Amare starts re-directing his shots or if he gets dunked on by LBJ (like what Lebron did to the Big Fundamental) :starwars:

[tsupermario]

Nate is more like 5-8 or 5-9 btw. and he's such an immature, selfish punk.

midget enforcer nga daw according to 1 of the articles i read :bwahaha:

that's funny, because Yao gets blocked the most of any big guy i've ever seen...in the last OT game against the Lakers, Kwame must have gotten him 3 times...and small guards (even Nate Robinson) always seem to be blocking his shots also.

he also gets dunked on a lot because he always rotates to the weak side to help his teammates, but is too slow to do anything but end up on a poster

[empy]

THIS JUST IN:


Carmelo Anthony suspended 15 games
J.R. Smith 10 games
Nene 1 game

Nate Robinson 10 games
Mardy Collins 6 games
Jared Jeffries 4 games
Jerome James 1 game

no suspension for Isaiah!? :swear:



in honor of Melo, JR, Nate, Jared and the boys...

+ $500,000 fine for each team



peanuts for the knicks :bwahaha:

[cardo]

5'11" or 5'8" everybody's an inch or two shorter in the NBA hehehe

later on, we'll see yao sproting some corn rows

and then a rap album like artest hehehe

di ba ginaya nya yun atittude of most NBA players to criticise your team mates in front of the media? he did this with team china, then nagalit yun coach ng china sa kanya.

[Gumusut_Amige]

mukhang fully charged 'tong nuggets and knicks after the brawl... beating the jazz and wizards respectively, kaya lang can they hang on?

[cardo]

If I were Yao, I'd try to emulate how TMAC confronts criticisms... I've read in Men's Health mag on what TMAC said... "Most criticisms I get are from people who can't do what I do. So it does'nt bother me" or something like that Until I can score 13 pts in 33 secs over the spurs, I'll leave tmac alone hehehe.

AI goes denver pala... well I think most of us know this already. I wonder how the team will perform once they have Melo back. AI doesnt play well with other scorers like glenn robinson, stackhouse etc. I remember some time back in the late 90's when philly had Joe Smith, AI, Larry Hughes, Stackhouse, Coleman and Tim Thomas all in the lineup

AI to Denver for Andre Miller, Joe Smith, and 2 1st round picks in 2007

this gives Philly three first rounders in a LOADED 2007 draft. they can either pick three good players or even trade up to get the 1st pick (if they don't get it already on their own). Andre Miller is a great engine to run the offense, and he's got a couple of good (but underachieving) young pieces in Iggy and the Haitian Sensation (Sammy D). but they REALLY need to hit the jackpot in this draft for this to be a good trade for them. oh, and they need to get rid of Webber.

Denver obviously wants to win now, and they have the potential to do so if the two main guys can coexist. they have excellent complementary pieces - a long range shooter in JR Smith and the all-defense Marcus Camby.

[cyrusblutrooper]

Melo suspended for 15 games but denver wont mind losing his points(31ppg) for 15 games cause they got the ANSWER exactly the same PPG. QUESTION is: someone gotta give his shots when the TWO superstars play together. MELO or AI..?

[mazdamazda]

Melo & AI in the same team? :shocked2:

Seems like Melo & JR Smith's suspension did something good after all.

Andre Miller, Iguodala & Dalembert sounds good. They are just missing a few more pieces but hopefully they'll load up in the next year's rookie draft.

[tsupermario]

paano na si garnett?

re AI, mataas naman yata assist stats nya.

[empy]

^iba kasi ang style ni AI on how he gets assists. he dominates the ball off the dribble, and gets his assists on drive-and-dishes. it will be hard for Melo to adjust his game, because he likes to hold the ball and create off the dribble and in the post. he'll have to get more comfortable coming off screens and spotting up (he's a great shooter so no issues).

i say both scorers go down to 22-25 ppg but with better efficiency (FG%). Camby will love playing with those two because of all the dumpoff passes he can dunk, and all the missed shots to stick back in :hihihi:

[cardo]

oh, and they need to get rid of Webber.

also he's an eyesore(nightmare) on the accounting sheets hehehe HUGE contract!
