I just think it's amazing you were able to watch Moses and Malone. Did you ever watch Kevin and Willis?![]()

Re: Are NBA changes necessary?
While I've always appreciated a big man's ability to work in the post, I don't think there's a need for any NBA changes. I think the NBA is in a better place now than ever before. The 3-ball, motion offenses and fast perimeter pace is fun and exciting to watch. Much more exciting than watching a team feed a big man over and over and having him back down a defender for however many seconds per possession. It gets the casual fan to watch, and it's good for the brand.

Re: Are NBA changes necessary?
Honestly the post game in the NBA was ruined anyway when they let Shaq and Dwight just push guys down and dunk the ball. I don't miss that at all.

I defy you to tell me this isn't the most exciting play in NBA history:

Haha Karl was pumpin in something...I mean I read his workout routine in the 90's and it was pretty rigorous but I dunno...I wouldn't point at him first though cuz he did love working on his body a lot.
He might have gotten a semi pass on Kobe's wife Vanessa though..:-X

Re: Are NBA changes necessary?
Ok I'm going to suggest a rule change and then run like the wind while all of you start hurling rocks at me.
What if, now hear me out, what if we changed the 3 seconds in the key rule and made it 4 seconds?
Screeeeeeeechhhhhhhhhhh ( indicating car getting the heck outta Dodge)...

He’s country as hell and played the majority of his career in Utah, neither of those groups necessarily frown upon that.
What, you were waiting on us Nor’Easters to create faux outrage for you just so you sothrons can go all “we don need ‘em Yankee devils tellin’ us how to live!”?

If you asked Al he’d tell you he always thought the rule was 5 seconds

What's next? You gonna tell me how we're dumb a-cause a few inches o' snow shuts the city down? Well I'll ax you, how come every time the temp rises above 70 degrees up there ya'll get folks dying of heat stroke when all they had to do was get a glass o' water?

Heh, I know kg is sweating because he feels honor bound to defend the south from Northern invaders but at the same time knows there's more than one reason he avoids the next town over.
