| Alright if you honestly think that all Artest was doing was playing good D, you are smoking something, something that really messes you up. If you were watching the games. 5 minutes into the game when it was 10-7 boston, Pierce drove to the lane and Artest completely just hammered him. Thus starting all the problems left in the game. Actually there was also no call when Artest clearly nailed him with an inappropriate block attempt. But yes what Walker did started the whole flaring between TMac and Walker and House. But Artest started most of it with all the fouling that he did. It got Walker and the entire Celtics team frustrated. Artest also clearly tackled Pierce in the 2nd quarter. Artest was to blame and so was Walker.
And like I said, Eddie was telling him the truth. He was telling Tracy to think about what he is doing. What he did was unnecessary. He is suppose to be the bigger man and not get bothered by a rookie trying to do something to him. He should have just walked it off and let the foul be called. But no, he doesn't do that. |
I know good defense is rare these days, but aside from the aforementioned tackling, it was all some pretty damn good defense.
Also your infallible logic strikes again, what does EVERY player do when someones about to dunk or get an easy basket? Oh that's right they foul them. Have you watched more than 3 minutes of basketball in your life? I'm surprised you even know who Red Auerbach is with how outlandishly ignorant some of your statements are.
House isn't diffusing any situation by putting his hands on McGrady, if you think that, refer to your opening paragraph.
