Thabeet Disses Clippers 

Post#1 » by mkwest » Thu Jun 11, 2009 5:25 am

...I saw Hasheem Thabeet, the skinny, ever-smiling 7-3 UConn center who figures to go in the top five of the coming NBA draft. I asked him what he thought of the lottery.

"Oh, I was SOOOO happy!" he beamed. "I see that the Los Angeles Clippers win the first pick!"

Why did this make you happy, 'Sheem?

"Because I know this means I do not have to play for them!"

Kid's a quick learner.

I'm glad we got the number 1 pick as well, and one of the reasons was so that I didn't have to be concerned with us picking Thabeet.

I didn't really want Thabeet either, so I guess the feeling is mutual that he doesn't want to play for us.
I've been an LA Clipper fan since 1998 and that will never change. I hate our new logo and jerseys!

The feeling is definitely mutual.

It's funny when rookies talk smack like this when they haven't stepped on an NBA court and proven anything.

Before the draft, I was seriously dreading the idea we'd be picking fifth and be stuck with Samuel Dalembert Pt. 2

If I am Dunleavy, I print this out and use it as a motivational technique. So they can prove people wrong next season.

Good, since I don't want him. Tha-Bust.
