Kobe is known for using his elbows to hit people, now i'm not saying he's a dirty player like bowen but even in a kobe bryant documentary his teammates said he was really good with those dirty tricks like pinching people, jersey tug, elbowing at a very young age since his dad taught him.
Ya well, at least I don't fuck a fleshlight with a condom on and cry at the same time.

cmon that little nudge by jordan pales in comparison to kobe's elbow...no one would've been called for an offensive foul if they did what jordan did. whether it be in a preseason game, a reg season game or in the postseason.

kobe whipped his elbow into artest no question about it. it was fucking intentional. i honestly can't believe some are saying otherwise.

the cavs are steamrolling the competition...can't wait for the finals

Try to push off something with your elbow at that angle.

MJ's push off? Never heard of such a ridiculous thing.

vs the jazz in the finals in '99 (i think). Mj could take a good 3-4 steps in his day as well.



They actually reviewed some of MJ's videos to see if he really takes extra steps but what they found out that his first step is actually very quick and his # of steps are really not 1 or 2 more than the actual # allowed...

willing to bet a week ban that the finals will be cavs.lakers and the mvp winner will lose again because he can't carry his team, lakers have come together too much to lose to king james.

I wonder if Bill Simmons will ever actually become an NBA GM. Personally, I'd love to see that happen just to see what he can do.

I use the word ridiculous to simulate sarcasm, but I guess that didn't carry over.

there's probably a lot more to being a gm than just making personnel decisions

teams should have gm by committee. i don't find simmons to be particularly brilliant or original as a talent evaluator in any case

calm artest is scarier than witnessed-table-leg-stabbing and running-into-the-crowd-and-fan-punching artest. marginally
