The team is self-destructing emotionally. Fisher kicked out of the game for elbowing that ***** Scola.

I love how the announcer proclaimed that Fisher is a "tough guy" oh yeah you ****ing idiot? Tough guys don't throw cheap shots like that! Fisher is a ***** for doing, I expect the Rockets to send him a message next game!!!

Did you guys see the guy in the stands yesterday who was wearing a Yankees hat in Lakers colors? About as much of a douche combination as you'll see.

All the point guards who are 7 for their last 60 from three need punished.





You turned on, Mofo

Hawks almost tried tonight. Almost.

[realmofotalk]

Fisher suspended for 1 game, leaving the offense in the hands of Jordan Farmar, who can't hit a layup to save his life.

Meanwhile, Rafer Alston also gets 1 game for slapping Eddie House upside the head, but Rajon Rondo plays on after he tried to rip Brad Miller's lips off. Nice consistency by Stu Jackson.

Don't forget pushing Hinrich into the announcers' table.

Not Making Up the Stabbing Story: Ron Artest

May 7, 2009 4:47 PM

After a rowdy Game 2 in Los Angeles, Ron Artest told reporters that the kind of physicality of the Rockets vs. Lakers did not upset him, because he had been in far more physical games -- for instance one in which a friend was killed with a table leg.

It was one of those claims ... could totally be true. Could totally not be true. But was certainly begging for more explanation.

And perhaps we have found it. TrueHoop reader Dan points to a Black Sports Online blog post, which cites a 1991 Associated Press article from The New York Times archives:

A 19-year-old basketball player from Queens was fatally stabbed with a broken-off table leg today after a fight broke out during a basketball tournament, the police said.

The player, Lloyd Newton, was stabbed in the back with a leg from the scorer's table at the championship game of a Y.M.C.A.-sponsored tournament at the Niagara Falls Boys and Girls Club, the police in Niagara Falls said.

"An argument ensued about the score," Capt. Louis Curcione said, adding that one of the teams "thought they were getting gypped."

"A fight broke out between the players and about 40 fans in the stands," he said. "In the course of the fight, one person was stabbed in the back."

Jesus Christ, none of these worthless ****s on LA can hit a jump shot anymore.
