Yah, they cut but he was still crying later and just put his head down. He needs to come to LA and play with Kobe. If they lose in the playoffs, they can cry together :lol

No superstar wants to play with Kobe,he ran shaq out of town and deep down you know he caused Rudy to hit the bottle again :(

Why would KG want to go to another losing team? I guess like you said,it would be to have a crying partner.

Once its out i'm sure everyone will let you know.

Poody can I ask what you mean by "Once it's out"? Are you implying that it will eventually be uploaded and torrented by someone in this forum? Please elaborate....
 
This forum will have nothing to do with the clip of the interview you want. Most of the time its someone from another forum that uploads the clip and we share the links over here.

Barkley talked right over Magic at the end! He's trying to make some point about how well the Phoenix Suns organization has done, and Charles just jumps in "PHOENIX. YEAH. I USED TO PLAY THERE." :lol Man, I gotta get TNT.

The best part about that was everybody else jumping in, and as the camera pans out to show the group Magic has this "I'm so going to give you bastards AIDS" look on his face. He just stared off angrily as they went on and on about Charles being fat.

Miguel. It was definitely before I got home at 5:00pm PST. I'm guessing it aired sometime between 1:00pm and 5:00pm PST. Miguel please PLEASE check and see if you got it. It was conducted by the old black gentlemen who usually interviews importantn players before all the All-Star games. check between 2 and 5pm PST or 5 and 8pm EST if you live on the east coast. I'd really appreciate it man :)

I saw it on TSN like a couple of days ago.
 
GOD DAMN WORK TO HELL.

fuck, i wish someone could just post the entire dunk contest. fucking a, those clips are awesome.
 
FSN/So Cal Sports Report just said that the deal they're working on is Boozer for Butler, Divac, and George. They also said that the Lakers asked Sac for Peja and BJax and Sac said the only way we'd get them is if we gave up Odom.
 
Damn, did they get Kobe's OK on the Butler deal? Those 2 are so close :(

Oh well this trade improves the Lakers so they will have to be long-distance buddies :D
 
Great dunk contest. JR definetly got robbed....he's probably the best dunker there, and that behind the back dunk was the one really original one of the night (the other great dunks were great because of their presentation, mostly). Amare can't compete with 2-guards in this contest, so it kinda sucked that he was in the finals (though the first Nash dunk was a classic). Josh Smith was really consistent and never missed, which is nice, but he's no Jason Richardson or anything. That reminds me, why does everyone keep mentioning Vince's bounce-on-the-floor-between-the-legs when Richardson did the same thing in 2003 but finished with his back to the basket? Or how he did in 2004 off the back board? The only dunk I saw that can even be compared to those two was JR's.

In the end, though, it was the first dunk contest since 2000 to have three quality contestants, which automatically made it great. Lebron would have made it better.
 
Yeah... It's gonna be sad to see Caron go if this goes through. I really love that guy... He has so so so much potential and him and Kobe are buds.

Talent wise Amare was only better then the white boy, but that first dunk with Nash really earned him a place in the finals and he deserved it with that dunk. Definitely one of the best dunks I have ever seen.
 
shit the trade is not final yet. Cuban is trying to re-up the deal. Go to hell Cuban!!!

I definetly agree...it was just that I knew that Amare couldn't come close to topping that. You're really given one "cool new gimmick" in these contests, and when Amare used it in the 1st round, he didn't have much of a chance in the finals. JR could have really done more damage in the last round...

"You had me at hello, Caron..."


KOBE AM CRYING!!1 :D


With Boozer, I'd say Lakers finish 6th in the West, unless Houston continues to play well, in which case it'll be a dead heat.
 
Only two good things can come out of this and the other is there will be Kobe and Caron videos.

You guys should do that. Trade Butler and Odom and get Boozer and Peja in return. :D
 
That Nash to Amare dunk was funny, but it doesn't seem exactly difficult and as exciting as those TNT guys believe.

That header by Nash is a pretty easy thing to do if you have played soccer before. Nash should've tried a backheel pass. Now that would've been cool. Plus the dunk was nothing special.
 
Sorry Isamu. I just fastforwarded through about 8 hours of NBA between the last two days. Nothing. I think you're making stuff up.

Dude, that was NOT easy. First off, Nash stood in the exact same spot the entire time, meaning that Amare's pass had to be absolutely on the money to hit Nash directly on the head, and then Nash had to direct it precisely back up to the rim. I'd say the first part was harder; taken together, it was a high degree of difficulty for the "trick", if not for the dunk itself. Still, it was memorable. :lol

Yeah, that pass Amare gave was impressive. They must have been praciticing that for a good while, because it is not easy throwing it off the backboard to an exact spot. Plus, the excitement of the dunk isn't all difficultyy....a lot of it is creativity and presentation. None of Smith's dunks were all that difficult, either, but he pulled them off really well.

They did that for the 2nd dunk but Amare couldn't get the lob till Nash floated it closer to the rim....
 
Correction, according to Clutchfans, the interview was played around 4:50. My DVR didn't start recording til 5pm.

As for the header...that owned. :D
 
I find it funny that Boozer needed to leave Cleveland because the coach supposedly told himi he would never be a huge star. He leaves for a better situation for himself and now the Jazz want to get rid of him. I even read that the owner had been quoted in the news that he didn't think Boozer played hard all the time. Didn't think he gave it 100% effort.

Good on ya Loozer. :lol
 
That was the best dunk contenst in a LONG time. A lot of creativity and Anderson was pure comedy. I bet Brent Barry wanted to curl up and die. For a little while, I thought I was watching the sequel to White Men Can't Jump. :lol Billy Hoyle!

Can anyone at least give a summary of the KG interview? What happened exactly?
 
J2 Cool said:
So where does Anderson place on the Sports Guy's unintentional comedy list? That almost killed me I was laughing so hard.

100+. His Tuesday column can't come quick enough. Anderson has to be automatically entered into the Pantheon.
 
Isamu, the 'old black gentleman' you keep refering to is lengendary Georgetown coach John Thompson. Coached Ewing, Mourning, Mutombo, Iverson and others.

"We play Houston on Wednesday, so ( Tracy) McGrady and Yao Ming are going to play 47 (minutes)," Popovich said, "and Tim is going to play about five."

Countered McGrady, "I told Pops I'm playing 15 minutes. We got two big games coming up, Seattle and San Antonio back-to-back, 15 minutes, Pop."

Forever in cement
Incidentally, now you too can act like an NBA superstar. Next month, Jim Gray will be given a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Soon you can walk all over Gray just like Kobe Bryant.

:lol :lol
 
OMG my cable went out!!! FUCK YOU adelphia. I guess it was the rain/wind and thunder combo that knocked out the cable in our neighborhood :*(** Anyone live near me? Silverlake?
 
WARNING: No matter how much you might be impressed by something that Vince Carter does tonight, remember this....He is a bad person.

Thank you for your time.
