i don't want to bring up something that's been beaten like a dead horse in this forum, but Ska defended Fisher's flop against the Warriors in that game where Monta Ellis got an offensive foul while most other Laker fans were admitting it was a terrible call and shoulda been a no-call.
and don't take this as an insult, i'm just bringin it up in the conversation
if i'm wrong correct me-but i remember u said Monta pushed off.
Oh my freaking gosh, guy... are you kidding me right now? You're a Warriors fan, so clearly you have a biased view of who flopped and whofouled.
But instead of realizing that you're a Warriors fan defending your Warrior star, you choose instead to think that I am completely wrong for saying that Ithought Fisher had NOT committed a foul?
I admitted THEN that Fisher flops, and I'll say it every time someone asks (which SHOULDN'T be that often, because no one cares about my opinionaccording to rock4light).
But just because I didn't think Fisher flopped that ONE TIME doesn't mean that I don't think he flops. What, now I have to think that Fisher ALWAYSflops ALL of the time in order to satisfy you guys?

I searched Bowen and spurs in Yuku and found this in the first page.

I'm not naming names; no way.
As for the 'thuggery' comments, I'll say this: 'hood' types have never really bothered me, because that's what I grew up around. Just because someone has a grip of tats and was arrested at a club where it was discovered they had a gun and some weed, I've never really been bothered by that. 90% of the dudes I knew that had guns had them more for status, like getting in an argument and you pull a heater out and everyone quiets down.
The weed? There's a ton of athletes that get judged for smoking weed, and the people judging them know damn well they toke, too.I don't but it ain't hurting me, so I've never really been bothered by it.
And 9 times out of 10, some dude that gets caught with weed or caught with a gun (or both) and has a ton of tats and argues with every-damn-body, people are going to label him a 'thug' and a 'problem', and I've just... never had a problem with him.
As an example, you guys are all talking about JR Smith. Me? I have more of a problem with Bowen than I do Smith; Bowen has almost ended careers. I'd want him out of the league before Smith if had a choice.
But dirty guys aren't even my first choice; 'me-first, team second' types would be my first, cats that think 'This game is way too easy for me to need a solid team; by myself, I have what it takes to take a team somewhere.'
No you don't. I wish I could take everyone in the NBA with that type of mindset, and send them to the NBDL.
P.S. On everything, I am neither confirming or denying any guesses y'all make, and I'm not arguing with anyone that thinks they know of any names I'm thinking of.
It's instances of you bringing up spurs players like bowen and manu in particular and hating (yes I said it) on them any chance possible.
I'm not going to go through every single spurs post to find you discrediting them but don't act like you don't do it. I don't know why I'm even bothering arguing. I'm actually pretty certain you flat out hate the spurs, you can keep denying it but dont' act like it doesn't bias what you say.
You guys are unreal.
BOWEN, GINOBILI, AND BELL ARE MY ABSOLUTE LEAST FAVORITE PLAYERS IN THE LEAGUE!
That means I HATE the Suns and Spurs now, right?
And ONE REPLY WHERE I MENTIONED BOWEN... IN A THREAD ABOUT DIRTY PLAYERS... means I hate the Spurs?!?! ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! LOOK how many other people namedBowen! I guess they ALL hate the Spurs too, huh?
Enlightened Thought:
^ska is actually one of the few ppl on s&t who share their opinions in an nonbelligerent manner.
acidicality:
To be fair to Ska, people are always aiming for his head.so whatever he says is always magnified x10.

Out of a thousand things you have done wrong, Stern... I applaud you on this one.
Good job, guy.

I know, the Suns have the defensive presence of a frozen snail, but still, everyone thought they would embarrass us, and the exact opposite happened.
The Spurs defense will be anchored by the same two things that has anchored it for 4 or 5 years now: the lethal combination of Big Stoneface + an entire roster of floppers (except Finley). How can you score against a team flying into the second row every other second?
I look for the Spurs to get hot early, getting under the skin of some Lakers by flopping (Kwame, Walton, Cook). Then Kobe will go around these flopping floppers, and Fisher will begin flopping right back.
What, now I have to think that Fisher ALWAYS flops ALL of the time in order to satisfy you guys?
I really think you're making assumptions as well. Never in my post did I mention that "Ska doesn't think fisher flops all the time.

Forget the Spurs.
C'mon, Knicks! It's not reasonable to fathom you lose EVERY damn game, so how about grabbing this one before going on another losing streak?

The Suns stay working the refs, and this was just another example of their tactics; it's just that this time, their tactic was against a player that actually does have a dirty rep.petozham:
Lakers aren't exactly the most innocent at that themselves in the league just off the strength of Sasha and Fish alone. lol.
rayisonit:
where should i say it in a separate
ska is overmoderating the sports & training forum thread?
you can go ahead and just ban me i never post anyways and will probably never come back here for sports threads.
You have an issue with me? (And it sounds like you do)

You're a Warriors fan, so clearly you have a biased view of who flopped and who fouled.
Sure...but when other Laker fans are admitting it should have been a no-call, as well as 99% of non-W/Laker fans, that's saying somethingabout how bad that call was. It's over with though, and %+## happens. Trust me, if you were a Warrior fan you would feel the exact same way I did. Iconsider myself pretty unbiased when it comes to sports, even though I'm a big fan of my teams. So thinkin it was a no-call isn't really from a biasedview. If we got the ball and missed a shot, I would feel a better sense of "completeness" to teh game.
It's unrelated to this post but just had to reiterate that.
....but yeah this was such a great game and it's turned into a mess, and unfortunately i joined in on it as well.
There aren't enough Suns or Spurs fans to keep these threads from being purely about those two teams.
Warrior fans find a way to bring themselves into every damn thread.
we're special.
