Entertaining thread, lots of stupid irrational posts but also some neat logic-based ones. I say no suspension, he deserves a cake! :lol:

2015: Russell / Nance

2017: Top 3 Pick? :nod: Fultz, Ball or Bust

NBA ruling on Metta World Peace won't come today, according to person familiar with the situation.

If metta was on the bobcats and did this to harden, I doubt anyone would be calling for season long ban. They'd probably settle at 5-8. because he's a laker people are want to see us go down.

How do laker fans feel about their players who throw elbows? 

Post#230 » by PersianCeltic » Mon Apr 23, 2012 11:59 pm

So first Bynum and now Ron Artest. These aren't just taunting, getting in someone's face type plays they are just simply dirty. Honestly would like to know how fans feel about players on their team throwing intentional elbows solely to injure other players. I could understand a scuffle, a mix up under the basket etc., but these types of plays are total bush league. I would be completely embarrassed and pissed if players I was rooting for did such antics, not only because they cheapen the game but they do NOTHING to help your team. If these seems like some kind trolling post feel free to lock but I have a feeling not all Laker fans are too thrilled about this kind of crap.

Lot of outsider feeling their nuts big time here huh ?

If you're gonna come to our board to debate what is a touchy subject, at least come with respect and stop trying to act as if all fans here are clueless and trying to tell us what the hell we should think and say.

I wish they would stop this crap, it's uncalled for. I'm not gonna hate the players forever for it, but I do lose respect for them for doing it.

What really bothers me is that the Lakers are an elite team year after year. It would seem like incidents like this would be less because of that.

Quit crying. You post a thread like that on the Celtics board, not only would it get locked you'd be warned/suspended.

To whoever moved the post my apologies I tried to edit and delete my rant but was too late it was locked! No hard feelings I just hate censorship and always get confused when a post is moved.

it's basketball, have you ever played? I am no pro or even a YMCA gym rat, but I do know that it is definitely a contact sport and people do get hurt playing it. with that said I don't like the cheap shots like the Bynum on Barea one. the Metta on Harden is different for me. somebody made an analogy in the gb that helps see it from a different perspective . it went something like the 8 year old kid keeps poking the junk yard dog with a stick, he keeps poking him and poking him, one day the dog broke the leash and bit the kid. so because the dog bit somebody 8 years ago it will be put to sleep.

The rule in PA is 3 bites (no matter when they happened in a dogs life) and you have to put it down, obviously not every bite is reported though.

I'd have locked it. You can put lipstick on a pig, but it's still a pig.

I could care less what you post on the Celtics forum. We hear about KG's antics ALL the time :roll: I was simply curious the level of annoyance from of Lakers fans themselves. It would be like a Laker fan asking how annoyed we got about something one of our players did. Haven't seen two players on the same team throw elbows like that within a year in the modern NBA.

I'd love a thoughtful breakdown as to what was so offensive about my post to merit locking it. Did you read it?
