GIVE THE PEOPLE WHAT THEY WANT!!!And what we want, dear NBA is pretty girls. So I give you more Frisian goodness than one man should be expected to take: Doutzen Kroes (Who a friend of mine nearly dated when they were 14. He since drove his car into the canal in frustration of turning her down).

AND! Because I am realistic and would rather not drive into a canal, plus I personally would really prefer to hold on to something at night:
Gotta give what the OP wants!===================================================================================================

Man, I really want Cope to get more than just garbage minutes. He looks like he could be so productive, but with Scola and Granger returning, there's no minutes for him. It's a good problem to have, but still.

Why?? He's out there having fun. I get tired if people saying that it's dumb to do stuff like that on the floor. Let them have fun while they win!

Agree 100% Its a game. And he's in the NBA on a team that may win it all. he should enjoy every moment of it. I know I would in his position. It would be totally different if the team was getting plastered and he did that. I was happy to see Granger looked comfortable tonight with 4 threes. 40 bench points tonight. If they can consistently duplicate this kind of production; HOUSTON we have liftoff!

Just saw the dangly Lance-bits dance, good on him, he is having fun out there, it is what makes this team work! He knew he was on to his third triple and went for it, who can blame him! There is a reason the Fieldhouse is selling out more than it has done for a long time and a big part of that is to do with Stephenson.

Well, that bench number was definitely inflated because they played the entire 4th quarter.

I just feel it's the wrong kind of attention, something we don't want. When we play the Heat, we don't like when Lebron or Wade shows up one of our guys, so I'm not a fan of one of our guys doing either. Especially in a blow out, and especially because he was clearly trying to get a triple double. Great teams and players just go play and win. There's a differnce in pumping your fist after a big basket, or PG beating his chest after yamming on Birdman, versus doing the stanky leg after crossing someone up. Just my opinion of course, but I just don't like it.

I think there is a difference between taunting and celebrating. in yesterday's Colts game, a chief got a penalty for waving a finger in one of our lineman's face while Redding did a major dance after a sack but he was facing downfield with everyone behind him.
Lance crowds the line sometimes. I can't find Granger's postgame interview online but Screamin' Eddie commented on the radio postgame show that Granger came very close to saying yes when asked if the veterans sometimes have to tone Lance down.

As long as Lance is working the crowd and not showing up the opponent, I am okay with it. Paul is somewhat similar in his response to a big play.
Give the crowd something to get excited about...not something to force retaliation.

Both of you worded that very well and I can agree. Wizop I can believe that a lot actually about Granger and some of the older (I guess that means West

) guys telling him to calm down a bit. But I also saw he was being calm after his triple double and when he went to the bench, the Georges were both telling him to get pumped up about it seemed. No matter what I love this team, so much so that I don't want anyone to be able anything bad about them.
