Erick Blasco Posted June 24, 2010 Report Share Posted June 24, 2010 I have no idea how I found this but it's funny stuff, or at least cool or candid. It's outdated but still funny. "It would be an honor. With my luck, though, I might not get the chance. They'll probably ask Andre Miller." -- Stephon Marbury, on the possibility of being asked to play on the Olympic team. "He's white normally, but he's really white now." -- Larry Brown, on Keith Van Horn being sick. "That didn't bother me. I am not going to worry about a guy trying to be tough with a pink tie on." -- Ben Wallace, on the injured Marcus Fizer acting like he was going to come off the Bulls bench and fight. "He is one of the best power forwards ever, always in shape, plays hard. I also think he's one of the dirtiest players of all time. And he's really into himself, with all his contracts and renegotiations and renegotiations. Great power forward. Selfish. Dirty...I wouldn't want to play with him." -- Joe Klein, on Karl Malone. "I'm not embarrassed by America. I'm embarrassed by humanity. More than embarrassed, I think it's really unfortunate in the year 2003 that we're still using violence as a means of conflict resolution. That's what I'm speaking out against." -- Steve Nash. "I forgive him. He's my teammate, he made a mistake, and I can't retaliate, trying to fight him or beat him up, because I'm on probation, so I would get in trouble." -- Ruben Patterson, forgiving, sort of, Zach Randolph. "Nothing. I was confused for two years. I didn't understand anything and I'm still confused." -- Gregg Popovich, on what he learned in his two years as an assistant to Don Nelson. "The best day of my life was when I turned 25. That's the day my car insurance went down. Yeah, boy, I saved $1,200 that day." -- Stephen Jackson. "Anybody who plays in this league and hasn't won a championship is the same. Charles Barkley? He's the same player as I am, because he didn't win it all. The guys who have won it all, and I don't care who they are, are two steps above the rest of us." -- Grant Long. "I make teams win." -- Scot Pollard. "We call those people player-haters." -- Jalen Rose, on critics who say that he and Scottie Pippen can't co-exist. "Myself first. But that will change. Derrick Coleman maybe. And John Starks just because, when you are in Game 7 of the championship and you can't hit from the outside, just take it to the basket, man. Come on." -- Lamar Odom, on three NBA players who haven't done enough with their talent. "When people talk about Katharine Hepburn, she's called an icon. She had an affair for 20 years, but Kobe is called a slut. And what about Rudolph Giuliani? He had two women fighting to get into the (New York) mayor's mansion. But Kobe is a slut." -- Charles Barkley. "I didn't know I had this many fans in Puerto Rico. I'm going to carry this memory to my grave." -- Allen Iverson. "Take that juice and you're clear." -- Lamar Odom, on how to beat the NBA's drug tests. "I love Lamar. But at some point in time he's got to make the decision over what's more important, getting high or his career that's going to get him a $70 million contract." -- Alvin Gentry, former Clippers coach, on Lamar Odom. "I started despising him. We sat down a lot, but it always ended up being him talking and me listening." -- Ray Allen, on George Karl. "Like most American or foreign players, he understands about half of what I say." -- Jeff Van Gundy, on Yao Ming. "The AI offense...get the ball to AI and clear out." -- Kevin Ollie, on the offense they ran when he was playing in Philly. "Now, if a player does not have an altercation on or off the court once each month, we fine him. I've tried to get this into the press, but people won't pay attention. And, the guys who are our top four scorers, each of them will be required once every two months to appear on MTV. And the guys who shoot the worst free throws over a one-month period, the next time we have a TV game, they are required to look into the camera and beat their chests after they make a good play. I think then we will have a little bit different reputation." -- Gregg Popovich. http://bbs.clutchfans.net/showthread.php?t=70569 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erick Blasco Posted June 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2010 I want Pop to retire and join ABC just to hear him and JVG call games. They're the two funniest people in basketball to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
