State who your team is (NBA) and choose one person that just gets on your nerves & why.
MY TEAM: Chicago Bulls
PLAYER: Ben Gordon
REASONING: Dude is either really on his game, or really off of it. There's no in between. He's always taking bullshit shots at the worst possible time. Falls all over the court to try & draw fouls (most of the time doesn't work), and then when the ref doesn't blow his whistle he gets up slower than a infant & puts the Bulls' defense in a 5 on 4 situation. As good as he is, I really think we need to trade him in the offseason!

Jarrett Jack. Turnover machine and has no idea how to run a fast break.
-
a certain red head comes to mind, but i feel bad for him so he shall remain nameless
i HATE kyle farnsworth as far as MLB.
-
For me it's been a tie between Luke Walton & Radmanavich... however both have had good games as of late. May they continue to stay on my good graces.

I gotta laugh everytime I see Pryzbilla playing tho lol.

Luke Walton
It's always something with him. The missed layups, the ill-advised passes, the constant ankle injuries, the fact that we gave him a fuckin 5 year extension! I still like him I just hate that he played his ass off for that long-term deal then went back to his goofy ways. Fluke Walton.

With the Sonics I could go on all day but it's a rebuilding year so I won't say anything. But on the Mariners Richie Sexson. Dude's got the second biggest contract on our team (only second to Ichiro's contract extension that was signed last year) and while he put up good power numbers his first two years here he still struck out too much, but last year he hit fuckin 205, ship this big piece of shit out already

I agree to a certain extent...
Luke Walton has been getting on my nerves all season (more than any other Laker, that's for sur), but I'm not convinced that he's exactly a fluke, cuz he has been playing through some bad injuries, and his confidence is lookin lower, so I dunno if it's really for a lack of effort. I've also been disappointed with VladRad since he came here, because I thought he was gunna be better, but he also seems to be coming around.

I'm disappointed in the lakers as a whole for not signing Slava Medvedenko to a max contract.

Why is that? He's a good defender and is tough. He's taken on the role of enforcer and has also vastly improved his FT shooting this year. He is going to be a luxury off the bench when Oden comes in next year.
-
Lakers: Kobe for a couple of years now...he's making up for it now, but dude is still low on my list until he 1. brings us out of the first round then after that we'll see. aside from kobe, i'd have to say Sasha and Vlad.....sometimes they just throw up them 3's and i'm like SHIT you still have 20 seconds on the clock! that pisses me off. me and stu lanz almost say it together sometimes POUND THE BALL. but the shots have been droppin as of late so who am i to judge.
MLB: on the dodgers.....shiiiiiiiit who am i NOT irritated with. Angels, Vlad. as crazy as that sounds i feel he can be doing more for the $ he gets
NFL: Cowboys.....roy williams i feel that at times he's a liability down field and when he KNOWS he needs to get that horse collar in check! Raiders.......AL DAVIS, die already the whole franchise needs a face lift.

I don't know man. I live in Oregon, my boy is a big Blazers fans so I'm watchin every game and dude never, ever seems to be showing any signs of improvement to me. He looks clumsy out there. Not a scorer. He's more or less a big body that can be in there to bang with some of the biggies to take weight off of Oden's shoulders (then he got injuired & Joel got put in the starting role).
It's not ALL his fault though..........Some of my resitment comes from the fact that the Blazers have the WORST broadcasting announcers of all time. I mean, it's great for the announcers to be pro-Blazers, but these guys are rediculous. The Blazers can do no-wrong in their eyes, it's always someone else's fault. Then a lot of the other centers in the league, more-or-less "pick on" Pryzbilla, Pryzbilla looks like a lost little boy walking away all the time but the announcers build him up to be this great big bad-boy by saying shit like "Ooohhh no Shaq! U don't want to mess with Joel! He won't back down, he'll be all in your grill if you try shoving him", etc........it's just rediculous. But, like I said, that part isn't his fault lol.
-
Vlad and Luke have been inconsistent all year but more than a single player, it has to be Lakers playing careless D against poor teams ..it's the only thing I can't stand in B-Ball, my team not playing D ..
-
Vlad is a shooter tho. I expect him to have off-nights where his shot just isn't falling. But for the most part he's been doing what he's supposed to. Only reason I was against us signing him is because we had just gave Bitch Boy that extension and I didn't think any team would be dumb enough to trade for him (thank God for Otis).

loney (who has a hit in every single game so far)? ethier? kent? dewitt? broxton? lol
the only one that really pisses me off is jones..his fucking cocksucking smile every time he strikes out just pisses me off. god damn it.

Lakers:
I'll stay away from the usual VladRad/Walton Bashing and say
Sasha Vujacic's ball handling skills sometimes makes me cringe
especially when he's running/bringing the ball up court, it always seem's like he's way ahead of everyone all the time
and out of control... (Maybe it's his hair..lol)
I say this off season Vujacic get's together with Hodges early and pratices a Mid-range shot to complimnet his 3.
