NBA on traveling: Two steps are better than one - ESPN

(Changing this rule was stupid.  It serves nothing but show more lack of integrity to definite rules of basketball.  They should just leave it.  Changing defensive rules like zones, or hand checking, or the half cirlce under the basket I can see.  Traveling?  That is an absolute!....

....Hmmm.  Wonder if that rule was "changed" for King Crab Dribble.  Now his 3 steps can be over looked more.  Speaking of the "KIng?")

What stood out for me

First, Isn’t it a surprise that how EVERYONE in the sports media and so called experts said that or even warned that Artest was going to be a detriment to the team because he was going to want the ball in his hands too much and yet what does Phil say about yesterdays game:

“He still looks like he’s standing around watching the other guys play at times, and he’s not involved as much as I would like him to be involved,”

Second, WTF is up! Luke’s back is hurting again! I feel so bad for this guy. The Lakers need him off the bench.

Love the headline: “Pacific preview: The Lakers and the losers” Should be same title for the preview of the entire NBA.

OK I’m not sure it is him but it looks like Marcin Gortat went out and bought some fancy new wheels after signing his big new contract.


He needs buy some goggles or at least learn to keep his mouth shut.

I wonder how much he was making

before he signed his new contract
