so only basketball players do crazy shit in the middle of a game?

no competition broods things like this. Anyone that has played sports or done anything competitive that really wanted to win had hand the urge to just go slap the hell off. Not all have acted on it, but you know the feeling. Its a tough one to control. Id rather see my player get mad and fight, than be on the sideline losing and smiling.

I couldn't care less about hockey.....I just don't find them antics in the NBA entertaining & the cast of characters aren't IMO truly playing the game in a sportsmanship fashion. It's all about the intimidation factor. IMO BB is more like the pre-fight hype in boxing. I came to see A BB game not some boxing match.

what the fuck are you talking about?

Aside from the brawl at the palace, there hasn't been too many huge fights in the NBA. Shit isn't anything new in the league either. Rudy Tomjanovich got laid the fuck out by Kermit Washington back in the 70's. Nobody forgets about the shaq and Charles Barkley fight. Does goddamn Bill Lambeer ring a bell? And that's just the NBA. Fuckers fight in every sport.

 

[yogirlsxman]

the fact that there are niggas in here trying to justify the shit is more disgusting than both the t/s's video and the knock out video.

1. he should have pushed going down the court
2. he know damn well not to push after the whistle
3. he knew after the second push the tech was coming. Why he mad now.

Basically he let that other player get in his head and that messed him all up. He got the Tech the other player probably said something slick. Then he popped

Very true but do antics make the race or is the event the entertainment?

This is the point I was making before that you tried to dismiss. Whatever the antics are, they dont affect the game. Again, you're just race baiting.

 

[major pain]

No I am not --- so you can dislike something and voice your opinion regarding said dislike and that's cool....yet let me do it and I'm race baiting. HOLY SHIT! you just don't let it alone do you? Damn your like the guy who complains about all the white washing machines @ the local laundromat -- SO the manager lifts the lids on two of them and says look at them black agitators inside.

The race baiting part comes in when you started equating NBA player actions to ancient Ethiopian rituals. You KNOW thats not what they are doing, you KNOW other sports do it too, you KNOW it has nothing to do with how the game is played. Then you started bringing up notions about it not being a white man's sport. You keep bringing up the racial makeup of the NBA as a talking point, so YEA.. thats race baiting. So, check the differences in what I'm saying is my opinion and what you are saying is yours, and you will see I'm not attributing anything to race, yet you are. See how that works? Race baiting.

So now you're telling me that African Americans would never go back in their roots and mimic certain aspects of said culture.....so is that what your saying? I do believe that Chris Weber would be one who has the resources to not only find them kind of things out,but to ALSO put his own little style to said actions. Now your insisting that is out of the realm of possibility?

I'm insisting that you have no evidence of such and are just making something up in a ridiculous attempt to explain your "opinion". Lets look at this a bit more closely. You said you did "research" on the chest banging and found it to be an Ethiopian ritual. You have ANY shred of evidence Webber has been to Ethiopia? Ya know Africa is a pretty large continent.

Feel free to comment on the rest of that post, unless of course, you really have nothing to say to counter it because its true.

Chris Webber's Connection with History
The basketball star talks about why he started his collection of African American items and what he'd like to add to it

Chris Webber, 32, is a towering 6-foot, 10-inch star forward with the Philadelphia 76ers basketball team. He's also an avid collector of rare books and letters and other artifacts of African American history. Among other things, he owns a rare 1773 first edition of Phillis Wheatley's book Poems on Various Subjects, the first book of poetry ever published by an African American.

So now you want his complete itinerary as well --- now feel free to answer my question about the possibility that Webber picked up on the Karo tribesman's and their unusual rituals. I see the connection but somehow your offended by those actions.....how come you/some wanna cling to your African ancestry but when some one shows a connection to said history you get all twisted.

Last I checked African and African-American history are two different things.

No, I never asked for a complete itinerary. I'm asking for you to produce some shred of evidence to make someone believe that Chris Webber has EVER been to Ethiopia let alone to visit this tribe. I never said I was offended by the actions, again YOU are the only one bothered by them in this entire thread.

If we're simply going to go off of possibilities, then its entirely possible you're a proud gold star member of the klan right? I mean, I see the connection so dont get offended.

 

[major pain]

Nope! not bothered just tired of seeing it....BTW I've never seen to many black folks make distinctions when they're dwelling about being stolen from Africa....so why wouldn't Webber look deeper into his roots.

Stop adding more variables into the equation. You said Webber went to Africa and brought back those "rituals". Well you can either prove it or you cant. Looks like you cant even prove he was ever in Ethiopia though. So, how about we just leave it as, you have no clue about what Webber did or did not do in Africa and really cant substantiate the "connection" between the NBA and this tribe?

 

[major pain]

I never categorically stated any such thing. BTW how can he or anyone for that matter bring back any rituals? He could very well have traveled throughout the Continent and saw those tribes and decided to mimic those actions in his own way....I asked earlier if Africans don't take little bits and pieces from their African culture and mimic them in way or another......are you gonna deny that, again? -- So white people mimic lot of things they admire in African Americans....and many/some claim their stealing AA's culture........BS (that's actually flattery). SO now you wanna deny that Chris Webber could not have done any such thing.....oh NO black man would ever do any such thing. & yeah CW would never lie and get indicted for such actions....right?

Oh ok. Stating Webber started the "ritual" in the NBA and stating Webber traveled to Africa is in no way implying thats what you meant.

Earlier you said how you dont like Ethiopian rituals being displayed and Webber is the one who started it. Now its just "possible" thats what he did. So, again, you have nothing to substantiate those statements right?

Lets get out of the realm of possibilities and into the realm of reality.

 

[major pain]

OK I can face reality without reservation's.....GET READY! the game of Basketball is no longer a sport for white men....can you handle it? BTW if your gonna find me guilty at least get the charges right......I never said that, I don't like Ethiopian rituals across the board.....I talked about origins of said rituals.

Hello, I dont care if its not a sport for white men. I watch to be entertained no matter the racial makeup of a team. Why do you keep bringing this up like I said it?

You said you dont like ancient Ethiopian rituals being displayed on the court, which is essentially what I just said. Bringing up more shit that has nothing to do with the conversation.

 

[yogirlsxman]

I bet he watch basketball and will post in a thread about the NBA about current events in cheap seats. Who knows with so much cross breeding that has went on throughout history. I bet Cleopatra took the chest bump to Greece and a lot of other things. Who knows. Just watch the game for what it is a game built for entertainment.

Vikings were a barbaric bunch its no telling how they celebrated. Fuck a chest bump that last .4 sec. just enjoy they game.

Oh yeah ole dude was wrong in the 1st vid.

 

[Knives Amilli]

Thanks for proving my point --- The NBA is headed in that direction & I no longer find it true entertainment & psychological intimidation is very prevalent in the NBA.....I find it ironic you talk 'bout what them white boys from the past did & they couldn't hold a candle next to how the players of the hip hop culture play today. IMO its more like the street game.

Headed in that direction? Its BEEN in that direction. Psychological intimidation is a part of every sport.

The only thing you may have a point about is the current "hip hop" generation of players. A lot of them play with a lot more cockiness than their predecessors. But at the same time, these new niggas are soft as shit compared to the old guard (especially the Jordan era) of the NBA.

 

[P. Town]

Well, thats another young nigga selling dope, with a "I could have been in the NBA" story

i showed you that video to show you that "antics" and many of the other things you're saying that is destroying the game of basketball for you aren't just restricted to basketball...and also to show you that your comments about fighting with the fans was just flat out wrong when talking about basketball...you have a problem with psychological intimidation well that shit happens in every sport and has ALWAYS been a part of sports...you can't name one sport that doesn't factor in having a mental edge over your opponent...if you don't like that about sports then you don't like sports
