Celtics reserve center/power forward Rasheed Wallace thinks the NBA is going soft.
“They gotta know that he’s a damn flopper,” Wallace said. “That’s all Turkodo (pictured below holding last years All-Flopper Award) do. Flopping shouldn’t get you no where. He acts like I shot him.”
Wallace said that’s a cheap way to play defense.
“That’s not basketball, man. that’s not defense. That’s garbage, what it is. I’m glad I don’t have too much of it left.”
Reminded that he has three years left on his contract didn’t hold back his lecture, adding that Paul Pierce did nothing wrong on his dunk over Chris Bosh early in the fourth quarter.
“This game is watered down, watered down with all that flopping [crap],” he said. “They’re setting rules on us to the point where you’re taunting if you dunk on somebody. Paul dunked it and then he didn’t say nothing but it’s a tech.
“Let the Golden Child do that or one of the NBA Without Border kids do that, it’s all fine and dandy.”
NBA Without Border kids...ouch. Roll Sheed.

Reminds me of my favorite episode of the Brady Bunch - the one where Greg, hanging out in the garage, gets drilled in the man parts by the football his sisters are tossing around. Then for the rest of the episode they keep replaying it in slow motion with Greg yelling "Oh, my hose!" over and over again. Classic.
Greg Brady is the cats pajamas.
Sheed is now out 30,000. I wonder how that impacts his XMAS shopping budget.
Happy BDAY Roomie.
