Nice to see Rambis back at Staples

But as far as his job in Sota I hope he gets a chance to develope the team. He designed last years defense for the Lakers so he already knows the most important part of the game as far as coaching. But in today’s fast coaching turn around in the NBA I hope the team doesn’t freak out. He should at least be given the whole season. Just my opinion.

I love this quote from McHale on HOOPSWORLD:

May I have this dancer?

That’s how LeBron James and his Michael Flatley routine would have been adjudicated in the old-school NBA.

“If a guy was doing the Riverdance like that, coach would come over and say, ’Who’s got the fewest amount of fouls of my big fellas?’ " said ex-Celtic and TNT analyst Kevin McHale. "If you raised your hand, he would say, ‘We will let him drive and then we will throw him on the ground.’

“When he is laying there we would say, ‘Do you feel like dancing now?’

“And that pretty much solved the dancing problem.”

Lebron's going to be hard to knock down

He’s quite a big guy.

And if you go the McHale route, the other team will do the same for knocking down their guy (for whatever reason), and then you’re in an endless cycle of retaliation.

Heres a new mix I made.

Kobe hasnt always been known as a clutch player. In game 5 of the 1997 Eastern Conference Semifinals, he missed a shot to win the game in the 4th quarter and 2 three-pointers to tie the game in the last minute of overtime, all of the shots being airballs. With that the Utah Jazz ended the playoffs for the Lakers in the 2nd round. Shaquille O'Neal commented years later that "Kobe was the only guy who had the guts at the time to take shots like that."

Ever since that horrible experience in his rookie year, Kobe has worked harder and has learned how to make those shots with the game on the line. This vid features some lines from Carmelo Anthony's Become Legendary commercial as well as some of Kobe's recent gamewinners.

Enjoy!
Kobe Game Winner vs Raptors - Whoa, I watched this and then I read the comments on Youtube claiming Kobe travelled, which I had not heard of. Then, after watching a few times, I have to say, I agree, Kobe changes his pivot foot before putting the ball down on the floor. I also think there's no way a ref catches that in real time, and even if they do, they can't be sure enough to call it then, either.
