Never underestimate the pain of a person, because in all honesty, everyone is struggling. Some people are just better at hiding it than others.

I'll never forget that Rockets/Spurs game from a few years ago where the Rockets were down big with very little time left...then T-Mac scored 13 points in 33 seconds and the Rockets stole it. That was one of the craziest things I've ever seen. The edited replays didn't do it justice - you had to see it as it happened.

Nah, you must be thinking of Spud Webb.

I didn't really like the Pistons bad boys...Too rude...

I wasn't a fan of the Bad Boys either. I'm referring to the 2004-ish Pistons team, when they had Chauncey Billups, Rip Hamilton, Tayshaun Prince, Rasheed Wallace, and Ben Wallace. I loved that team! :)

...apparently he's back with the Pistons again, and he's actually playing well. That's news to me. :shock:

And it reminds me the good ol days when i was waking up in the middle of the night to watch Jordan,Barkley,Stockton,Clide the glide,... :P
But what i wanna say is : I worked on matchs where the Cavs were playing...(I just come back from work : Cavs/Heat...Wow!Lebron and Wade made a great show!)...But the guy i discover is...MO WILLIAMS! :P
This guy is awesome!...Great shooter!...Great assist-man!...Great defender!...
This guy doesn't seem to be cocky (like some others in sports nowadays...) but what a worker on court!
As you are almost the only US guys i can talk with,i was wondering what was your idea about him...And who were the other players (not known a lot) you like too...:)
(i dream of a Knicks team with Lebron-Wade-Noah-Parker-Superman! ;) :P )

(And if i'm not clear in my english it's because it's 6 am here,i'm up since 10 am and i was working from 1 to 5 am now...and weed is smashing me! :P )
PEACE!


Mo Williams is actually an older guy...basically just a pure shooter...not much defense---the game you were covering he may have just had a defensive powerhouse game....but, a couple players i really like that are all about hustling and effort would probably be Louis Scola for the Houston Rockets...he is from Argentina...he is a great rebounder and usually out hustles his opponents which gives him chances for offensive rebounds to get the garbage points

What!? :shock:

This is shocking news to me. If he's really leaving, I think it's way too soon. Quite frankly, I'm stunned that there are absolutely no teams out there that want to sign him right now. As much as he may have complained about coming off the bench, I think his complaints have some merit. I can't think of too many players that I would start over him, but then again, I'm not a GM.

New York tried to hire him but i guess he wanted a big salary and the #1 or 2 options of gameplans...Too bad guys don't want to accept lower salary...What can't they do without 2M (on the 5M he earned,i think) looking to what these kind of guys earned in their all carreer...They should accept low salary to be able to play last challenges!
Cro,you're a bit hard with "the little man"!
In the 2000's he hold the sixers franchise all by himself!I think he has one of the most points average in a career,he gave us highlights all the time...He was 4 times best scorers of the league...Ok he was A BIT selfish but what a scorer!

Iverson is the most self-absorbed player in the NBA - and that's saying a lot, considering the NBA is chock-full of self-absorbed players.

Basketball is a team sport, so no surprise that Iverson hasn't won a damn thing during his career.
