2 games for Rondo was more than enough IMO. I like to see some more of that toughness come through. I don't want to see a return to the 80's, but I want some Heat/Knicks/Pacers type rivalries to bust out. Everyone in the league is too soft and each others friends.

The fine on the Spurs thing is something else. It is another reason why I can't wait for Stern to go. He has been out of touch since the Pistons won in 04.

Kevin Love purposefully stomped on Luis Scola and only got a 1 game suspension. I'm not saying Rondo didn't deserve the 2, but the league is greatly inconsistent with it's punishments. The Rondo fight (which was mostly pushing, by the way) wasn't as bad as it could have been and it'd only be a fine if it had happened at mid-court.

Fixed that for you.

Eat that, Dwight. Magic FTW

So the hornets owner wants to name the team something that represents Louisiana. Yeah thats right, he is going to change the name to New Orleans Pelicans. LOL. Thats the state bird for louisiana. Other ideas they had was New Orleans Brass, which i think sounds a lot better. Hell, it would have been better to name them New Orleans Voodoo. But i could see that as a negative name on the team for some people. Hopefully the Bobcats can then change back to Charlotte Hornets and get those classic jerseys back.

There's an Arena football team named the New Orleans Voodoo.

"New Orleans Latter Day Saints, Suck It Utah"

Honestly, whatever... the NBA has the Lakers (of Los Angeles, mind you), Celtics and Knickerbockers, which if you step back and strip away the history, would be written off as equally ing stupid names if you attempted to introduce them today. If they can form a reasonably good team, people will get on the Pelican Hype Train or whatever they finalize.

Why would a Pelican need a hype train? It's a Pelican, it can fly. :LOL:

$tern made sure he pressed his order 66 button early in this OKC game.

I think New Orleans Brass just sounds the coolest.

They just haven't been consistent at all. They go from coming back to beat LA in the 4th to just getting smashed by Dallas. I don't think the Rockets have won a back-to-back game since the first two of the season

Boston and Dallas game is crazy.

I can't believe Dallas was in the game considering they had 28 turnovers. As up and down as this team has been they have the potential to be pretty good. Hopefully Dirk is the cure for a lot of the teams negatives.

It's the only DAL game I've watched all season, but I'm pretty sure it'd be a BOS loss if Dirk was playing, even with the 28 turnovers. Mayo and Dirk could be a pretty awesome tandem.

For sure. We'll see if Mayo regresses, but right now, he's looking like the steal of the year.
