End of 2009/10 Season Press Conference: Mr. Colangelo

My thoughts/response to the press conference

- BC looks like he aged quite a bit
- Throw out/sell your all your Chris Bosh memorabilia. Bosh is gone via S&T. He seems confident the Raptors can get a good return
- According to BC, Bargnani is "evolving". Looks like he is here to stay.
- Look like both Jay and Hedo will be back next season
- PG will be an area that BC will look to improve on. At the very least, 1 of the PG's is gone for sure. I also wouldn't be surprised if Jack is traded
- He mentioned scenarios that has the team going 3M and 7M over the luxury tax threshold. Not sure if I should be happy
- Judging by his history with draft picks and the press conference, I wouldn't be surprised if he moved the 13th pick for someone that will help them now. I just hope its not for someone like Nocioni ... -_-
- Looks like Amir Johnson, Demar DeRozan and Sonny Weems will be back next season

2009/10 NBA Playoffs: Miami -Boston series heating up

UPDATE: KG has been suspended for Game 2

Kevin Garnett of the Boston Celtics has been suspended without pay for one game for striking the Miami Heat’s Quentin Richardson in the head with an elbow, it was announced today by Stu Jackson, NBA Executive Vice President, Basketball Operations. Richardson has been fined $25,000 for his role in the altercation.

The incident occurred with 40 seconds remaining in the fourth period of the Celtics’ 85-76 victory over the Heat in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference First Round on Saturday at TD Garden.

Garnett will serve his suspension Tuesday when the Celtics face the Heat in Game 2 at TD Garden.

Quentin Richardson on the incident

"I just get surprised by people's actions when I know them better than that," Richardson said. "They're not those characters they portray. They're not who they say they are. Garnett and Pierce, they're good basketball players, and that's about it."

Richardson apparently thought Pierce was acting, telling teammate Jermaine O'Neal as much. As it was, Pierce remained in the game.

"I said to Jermaine, 'He's OK, because I knew nobody touched him. Is he taking another break like he does so many times? Sometimes he falls like he's about to be out for the season and then he gets right up.' That's all I said."

Asked about the tone of the series, Richardson said, "I don't like them, and they know it."

More from Q-Rich on Pierce's and Garnett's Oscar worthy performances

Garnett ”is an actress and so is Paul,” Richardson said. ”I was going to take the ball out over there. That was what I was trying to do. I told our trainer Jay [Sabol] that [Pierce] is cool and he’s doing what he always do, lay down like it’s a season-ending injury, then he gets up and he’s miraculously fine. He gets a breath, takes his time or whatever and he did the same thing.

”It should be a suspension [for Garnett]. We’ll see. That’s up to the NBA. But I’ve seen things like that in the past and people get suspended. I was cool. I was going to try going at him, but with me being restrained, that’s what it was.”

Kevin Garnett's response to it

I just saw ‘Q’ standing over him, talking nonsense,” Garnett said. ”I just asked him to give him some room. Before you knew it, mayhem started. I know these two have competed against each other in the past and they have history of bumping heads a little bit. The only thing I tried to do was tell [Richardson] to give common courtesy for an injured player. That’s all.

”I have no beef with ‘Q.’ I know him personally. I thought what he did was a little disrespectful by standing over a guy that was hurt, just talking nonsense. Before you knew it, it just all broke out. I have to use my head. The only thing I saw was Paul was hurt, and that was the only thing I cared about at the time. I don’t remember air-boarding anybody. I just remember people grabbing me.”

The incident Q Rich was referring to



Can't say I disagree with Q here. Pierce looked like he suffered a serious shoulder injury last night and then came back looking like nothing happened.

So I was doing my daily morning routine of looking at random things online before I eat breakfast when I stumbled into this.

Picture completely unrelated

So I finally managed to get off my ass and start this blog when it should have been started months ago. I needed a place where I can post a gazillion realistic and unrealistic trade ideas that pop into my head every time time I go to Hoopshype and read NBA rumours.

Good thing I set this up before the 2010 NBA Draft and the highly anticipated NBA offseason started.

Anyways the NBA 2009/10 Season is coming to an end and you know what that means...
