2008 NBA Playoffs Taunts, Celebrations, And Hand Gestures Unappreciation Post

[frenchblue23]

You know we are seeing all these gestures, because of hostility built up against each other through the season...

It's a long season, you lock up rivalries here and there, it takes people back to the 80's were this was normal.

2008 has been one of the most entertaining playoffs (Even the East) in a long time.

Plus 97% of games have been on national t.v., so they want to put on a show

Guys taking a genuine concern for the outcome of the game. Its a way to getthemselves in the competetive mentality, I'm all for it. Whatever it takes to get the troops fired up, so be it. The Wizards series is great. I live in theDC area and never liked the Wiz after how they did MJ dirty, but even I am intrigued by whats going on. Its been fun...

players can celebrate whenever and however they want. stuff like that doesnt bother me. and i never understood why stuff like that bothered anybody else. aplayer can do the yayo dance everytime he misses a shot.........so? that him.

the only thing that automatically comes to mind that i hate is flopping, cuz that effects the outcome of a game.

soft #+$ mother %@%%+$!

This is the only person that I really have a problem with. You can be amped for a game but come on.

Talking to yourself at the free throw line? Punching yourself?

Stop it.

i can't understand people who get mad over this type of thing.

Deshawn Stevenson wants to dance when he's down 30? fine. yeah, he makes himself look like an idiot, but why does that bother YOU? because obviously itdoesn't bother him.

i always find it funny when a fan sitting on his couch feels he can dictate what a fully grown professional athlete should and shouldn't be doing toexpress his emotions.

i can understand if you were a player on the other team, and you were getting annoyed by constant antics. but you all are just fans sitting on a couch, so hisactions really shouldn't be bothering you. they are the entertainers. you cannot pretend to tell them how to be behave. you are supposed to eat up whatthey give you.

DeShawn Stevenson is far from being one of my favorite players but I don't have any problem with his celebrations.

I'm not telling KG to do anything. I just find his antics to be uncalled for.

I have no problem with the hand gestures and celebrations of the other players, because they are not overboard like KG's.

PUNCHING yourself in the head? Is he trying to prove that he plays with the most passion?
