Rough Cut 7/24 - So, about this LeBron fella we've heard so much about...
GOTCHA!!
Seriously, I was looking at the pic of Matt Barnes on The Credits and noticed his many tattoos and got to thinking about NBA players and their tattoos. So many have them, and while some are nice, some of them are just, shall we say, interesting.
There's no need to go into the history of tattoos, but suffice to say that for decades only a certain demographic had them. Aside from people in certain tribal areas of the world, those folks were either in the military, in biker gangs or in prison (sometimes they were all the same person!). But sometime in the 70s, tattoos began moving into the general population, and more "regular people" started getting inked, including a fair number of women. I think the first woman I saw with a tattoo was Cher. In the intervening years, more and more women have taken to inking themselves, some on par with many men. I mean, has anyone seen Kat Von Dee lately? I don't think she has an inch of uninked skin left. If she does, it's somewhere not visible to the public.
At any rate, some NBA players have so many tattoos you can't see their skin either. Why is that? I know some of the tats have special meaning, but do all of them mean something, really, or do they get them just to get them? Some examples:
No explanation necessary.
The above is on Gilbert Arenas' hand; he had a prison tat before he went to prison. Do you see the period after "change" on his trigger index finger? I think the artist was dyslexic.
Maybe Duncan should have asked old Merlin for some pecs.
Some folks is just craaaaaaaaaaaaazy.
Looks like Richard Jefferson let the neighborhood kids draw on him.
This is on Shawn Marion's leg and it's supposed to say "Matrix" in Chinese characters. Sometimes your friends are just fucking with you.
What has been seen cannot be unseen. Shit.
Interesting in light of recent events.
and finally
This one is now ours.
I will go on record and say that, while I am not a huge fan of tattoos, I have honestly considered getting one. I know what I'd want and exactly where I'd put it, but I just can't bring myself to do it, although it could be very helpful if my family ever had to identify my body for some reason. I'm of the opinion that if you are going to get a tattoo, pick the name(s) of your parents or your children because those are the only people in your life who never change. Do not get the name of the girl/guy you married or were engaged to. Ask Johnny Depp and Angelina Jolie how that worked out.
So, what do you guys think of tattoos, on NBA players and other folks? Do you like or dislike them? Do you have them? If you don't have one, would you get one? Where would you put it? Can I possibly ask any more questions? Feel free to post your own photos. Now start talking!

I see what you did there.

I'm not a tattoo person
Myself. But they can work on others I guess.
What you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

She is an amazing artist and if I ever got a tattoo, I'd want her to do it. But I can't stand looking at her.
She scares me.

Yea, in this picture she looks amazing. But she is way more inked now. She does look very intimidating.

I thought that was bombshell McGee or whatever the hell they call her.
tattoos are great and all but people easily tend to go overboard with them.
Adam Morrison has more rings than Lebron, Bosh, and Wade combined?
Dude Kat Von D
Love her…She’s hotter in person imo !
the only thing is I cannot STAND her tv show..ugh. She’s a good tattoo artist and all but man almighty that show makes me wanna gag.

"Let the Hunt for Six Begin."-Derek Fisher
there are really only 2 types of NBA players in this world
those with neck tattoos and those without. neck tattoo guys are obviously the most feared in the NBA, as they have neck tattoos. if a neck tattoo guy was coming at me i would probably jump off of a cliff just to avoid his neck tattoo prowess.

We don’t need to be that politically correct i mean dang it’s a very common turn of phrase that really has nothing to do with homosexuals. maybe it’s my locale but no one should be offended and if they are well i can show u millions of lebron fans who are offeneded when i say Kobe is the best player in the leauge. Now on to the next one lol

It doesn't matter whether you think anyone should be offended, the fact is that someone may be offended.
It’s not something people say just in your locale, it’s something people say everywhere. That aside, it’s a rule around here so just don’t do it.
As for Reggie, he looks like he’s dancing down to the water, but more importantly he looks like an idiot. But that’s Reggie for you.

I can't stand tattoos
Even more I can’t stand people who act like they don’t know that certain tattoos have bad stereotypes associated with them or certain tattoo locations have stereotypes with them.
Even more I can’t stand people who have tattoos all over the place.
I can deal with a small one here or there, but big ass tattoos like angel wings all over the back are just a no.

I love tattoos
In general, I love them. Perhaps it’s because of the people I grow up around and the environment I lived in.
(Although there are just some people, who should never get tattoos or fuckin get like really stupid ones like a bf/gf’s name, or dicks or whatever else people think up when they’re intoxicated).
I really would love to get one done next summer. I have plans for many =) but they are all because of sentimental reasons or they mean a lot to me. I don’t like the idea of getting tattoos, spur of the moment. I’m one who plans and puts a lot of thought into a permanent drawing.
"Let the Hunt for Six Begin."-Derek Fisher
women with tattoos are sexy
but not exactly the traditional type. I think it says a lot about a person and their personality. My co-worker (female) is the most professional and reserved person that I have worked with. One day she wore casual clothes on and I could see she had a colored tattoo that ran from her shoulder all through out her left side. I got caught off guard because she doesnt seem like the type of person who was daring enough to do that.

I think LeBron's tattoos are correct advertising.
And that Laker fans are some of the most biased fans I’ve ever seen.
Be honest, you know Kobe’s not better than even Shaq or Duncan.
He’s a nice little player, Hakeem also has two Finals MVPs. To be GOAT you need LeBron’s numbers, and rings. Which are probably coming.
lolz yep
Why’s he hating now? He used to be a Laker fan haha

And Jordan never had two superstars on his team nor left his team to go join two superstars. He has no chance of becoming GOAT so get over yourself.
Adam Morrison has more rings than Lebron, Bosh, and Wade combined?
ROFLMAO
I think LeBron’s tattoos are correct advertising.
And that Laker fans are some of the most biased fans Iāve ever seen.
I’d outline the oxymoron/hypocrisy in those two lines… but I’m laughing too hard.
Kobe Bryant's no Michael Jordan. Kobe Bryant is Kobe Bryant.

Anyone
who considers Duncan or Shaq more polished and accomplished players than Hakeem is obviously just dumb.

tattoos are cool
but what i kinda dislike is how the non asian people have these asian characters on their arms or legs sometimes. There was this one time i saw a lady with the tattoo “love” in chinese, and that tattoo was completely written wrong (there was a stroke or 2 missing, which makes it a completely different word or not a word at all). For all i know, if i was the tattoo person, i could’ve tattooed “idiot” on their leg or arm and claimed it meant “love” or “peace” or “harmony”

What's wrong with non-asians having asian characters for tattoos?
Not saying I think its cool or anything, just wondering why you think its wrong…
"Anyone crazy enough to mess with me is crazy enough to play with me." - Kobe
well i guess i shouldn't have worded it like that
i guess what i should’ve said is how i dislike how some people get the tattoo without knowing what it means. people will tell me they got a tattoo and they’ll tell me the meaning of it and that’s not what it means! And where i live, most of the people who get those kind of tattoos are not the asian people, so that resulted in me typing out “non asian.” apologies about that.

I'm with you, SoCalGal. I don't think much of tattoos.
Sometimes, tattoos are cool art (sometimes). But the risk of getting mistakes on a tattoo that can haunt you forever is, for me, not just worth it.







Yup. It could go terribly wrong.

I can’t believe I’m late to the party. I have four total both forearms and both calf’s. I had a friend who gave me crazy discounts and once i had my forearm done I kept going.
I look at the momentums of the game, and how you affect the game. Statistics canāt tell you that, canāt teach you how to feel a game. Statistics are just for fantasy buffs or something- Kobe Bryant
I can't believe the people of Miami said Kobe sucks. And I can't believe mark Cuban continues to doubt Kobe. I'm gonna tell Kobe about this-Ron Artest via twitter
