Lol, good stuff.

Now if only someone from the Celts had the grapefruits to possibly deck Lebron on the court.

With all due respect, this off the court chatter is playground stuff.

I love it! Ainge is already laying the groundwork to get the Heat off their game for the playoff battle, and it's working.

Man do I wish Rondo was healthy and we could match-up seriously with Miami.  It would be so much fun, just enhanced by the Riley/Ainge war of words.   As is, the C's will play their hearts out, but likely won't get to Miami, and if they do probably can't really push them to the brink.

Danny Ainge needs to (secretly) promise to guarantee the contract of any Chinese league refugee who teaches Lebron what a flagrant foul really is and takes him out, should the Celtics and Heat meet in the playoffs.

Would the Heat be paranoid if Doc inserts Shav the Shiv early in the first quarter, wondering if he is in there to take Lebron out?

This is getting ugly... and I secretly love it.
By the way, why haven't any of them responded to Taj's quote. He said Lebron was too good for that (that being complaining).
Also will Lebron get fined for complaining about the non-flagrant calls or will they brush that under the rug.

What do you know about the glory days? You're 14 aren't you? lol.
JK!

All jokes aside, I love the trash talk that's going on.
Lebron should never complain on a call when he gets all the calls in his favor at least 90 percent of the time.

I'm proud though. I didn't know my post about what Ainge said about Lebron's complaining would be a hot topic here on tha site. 4 pages deep baby. Keep em goin.

We all know someone behind tha scenes is cookin this up. But I like this rivalry though. Pat Riley adding more fuel to tha Celtics-Heat fire. Tha fact that Ainge's comment even got a reaction out of Pat Riley is great.

It is. I am just saying I'd rather see someone physically deck Lebron. Check this out and pay attention to what the Chief does 19 secs in to Bill Laimbeer. That's what I want to see someone do to Lebron.

Anything anti-Lebron will be a hot topic.  A link to cell phone video of Lebron James exiting a restroom without washing his hands is a ten-page minimum.

TP for the Shav the Shiv image. Of course if Shavlik did anything to LeTravel he'd get suspended for the rest of the season  >:(

But really, I want DJ White to play big minutes in the regular season game still to play in Miami. He has the physical tools to make them pay when they drive to the lane. I miss Darko, though, he would be perfect for the job.

Shaqattack, you're right and a TP goes for you. Riley has turned Miami into Fakers East, and that's why we can't decide which team is more disgusting. Of course, the Lakers are the worst, but it's hard to tell these days.

He obviously got into their heads enough for them to generate some angry, atypical responses. It's working.

It's also classic working the refs in advance.  Phil Jackson used to do this sort of stuff constantly, though he was usually subtler about it.

Yep, it's a classic Phil Jackson move. Danny picked up a thing or two from him over the last few years.

The Road Dogg flies down the runway and hurtles himself into the ring as LeBron James and Pat Riley stand there stunned. Is this just another prelude to the highly anticipated ppv event 'Rage In The Cage' round 1 best of seven series, or will violence erupt right now?

Phil Jackson would've sent them a book about challenging the established paradigm, and then said something both smug and insulting.

Yeah the thing is Ainge wasn't the MVP of the league benefiting from officials more than anyone else in his era.

Also I just find it funny that Lebron is still getting calls but now wants more of these calls to be "flagrant" fouls or like change the league rules or fine players or i don't really know what he wants?

It's just funny when he talks about basketball plays when he bull rushes and barrels into opponents, quite often pretty out of control and thats a basketball play. But fouling someone, or wrapping up someone, or going for the ball and hitting someones shoulder isn't.

Does everyone remember that wrap up on  Barbosa in Brooklyn early in the season that was a regular foul? That was literally like 10 times worse than those lebron fouls

I would too, I'd love to see it but Danny has mellowed:

"Ainge said he would keep it at the verbal level. Wearing frayed blue jeans and sneakers, he said, "I don't want to mess up his Armani suits and all that hair goop. It would be way too expensive for me.""  ;D

man Rivers must feel super awkward right now.

But you know what, i applaud for Danny coming out and saying what he did. Somebody has to shut Lebron james up. Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, Shaq etc. rarely complained about calls and just played. Anything that goes against Lebron or he doesn't get a call, he starts to really show his displeasure.

The nba had a new rule in place that if you do that, auto technicall. Lebron or Shavlik it doesn't matter. Nba needs to follow its own rules again

OH MY...I didn't even noticed THAT..honestly :-[ :-[

LOL

That was funny...so THAT is the meaning of the vid.

Still a nostalgic clip for me..announcers talking about us drafting Brad Daugherty...the cut to our own Doc Rivers at the foul line....just a priceless clip.

And guess who is at the bottom of the pile in the fight?
