I can honestly say that I see the fear in Antoine's eyes in that picture. You can see the incredible lust for the fried chicken, but he also knows that Jason will straight up shank you in your ribcage for a single piece of the Colonel's deep fried treat.

It is going through monday. The NBA offices closed before the trade was completed.
As much as Collins may not of had the most talent in the NBA. He was one of the best proffesionals. He always was out there, injured or not, and never got respected for what he did. He's greatly regressed over the last 2 years, but early in his career he was a decent bigman who didnt get credit enough for his defense. He was one of the best defensive bigs for a while in this league.
It is not his fault he got a 6 million dollar contract, if it wasnt for that, no one would talk about him as they do now.
I have tons of respect for Jason, and wish him the best in Memphis. It's sorta sad, it feels like its the end of an era. Collins has made the playoffs every season of his career and tonight moved up to 3rd for most games played as a Net. Only Kidd and RJ remain from the Finals days.
Thanks for everything collins.

Say what you want about Collins, but he straight up shut down Bosh in the playoffs last year. I've been watching Bosh for four years now, and I've never seen him get shut down like that.
So give Collins some credit. He's definitely not the guy you want out there every night, but he's earned his pay on more than a few occasions.
