Bell's comments on Kobe Bryant "I have no respect for him. He's a pompous, arrogant individual. I think a lot of people let him get away with things and he feels like hes supposed to get away with them.... everytime he sticks his butt out and tries to hit me in my genitals, you're doing it on pupose. that's something you dont do inadvertently"

TRUE THAT!!!
FUCK KOBE

Raja Bell:
"Honestly? He hit me in the face, then he came down and tried to bully me a couple times on the play. I went over the referee, Greg Willard, and asked him what happened, and Phil Jackson said 'I effing deserved it.' And then I said 'what?' and he said, 'You effing deserve it.' "

Kobe:
"I don't think anyone expects to get clotheslined during a basketball game. But it was still fun."

Raja Bell:
"It's a personal thing when someone continually hits you in the face. That's the only way I can put it. I've been playing as hard as I can play, been trying to do a good job, I've been trying to be what my team needs me to be, and I continually get hit in my face."

Kobe:
"Oh come on, I retaliate and what, miss a game? For this guy?" (shakes his head)

Raja Bell:
"There doesn't seen to be any boundaries or limitations for what he's allowed to do to me, and at that point I kinda lost my cool and I took it into my own hands."

Kobe:
"Does he know me? Do I know this guy? I don't know this guy. I might have said one word to this guy. I don't know this kid. I think he overreacts to stuff. I don't know him, I don't think about him. We go out there and we play, we play during the season, we play each other. That's it. I don't know this kid. I don't need to know this kid. I don't want to. We go out there and play the game and leave it at that. Maybe he wasn't hugged enough as a kid, I look at him a little bit and he gets a little insecure about something. I don't know."

Ric Bucher: You're not claiming conspiracy but teams with stars are getting breaks. Ooooookeydoke. What is Steve Nash, if not a money-making star? Raja is lucky he only got one game. Here's what I'm tired of: fans who can't concede their team is being outplayed and chooses to blame the refs. Blame Kurt Thomas being hurt. Blame Shawn Marion for not figuring out how to counter Lamar. Or, maybe, accept that your team, just maybe, isn't as good as its regular-season record might've indicated. Phoenix, you've had NBA basketball for a long time. It's time you started showing jjjjjjjust a little more sophistication about the game.

food for thought:

analysts are calling this Suns/Lakers series the best first round series in nba history.

thought that was pretty cool

I wouldn't call it the best but it is competitive. NBA history is saying a lot though. If it goes 7 games then it could be. Too bad Bell got suspended because he plays Kobe pretty good. Now the Suns maybe forced to double Kobe. We'll see tonight though. May the better team win.

I don't know why they didn't have Marion guarding Kobe anyway. I think Marion is more suited to guard Kobe, because Lamar has the height and weight over Marion. Sometimes they be callin' fouls on Marion when he guards Odom and Marion doesn't really do anything to get a foul called on him to be honest. Tim Thomas might be able to guard Kobe. We'll see what happens tonight though. But Bell really hurt his team by getting suspended because the Suns may miss his three point shooting too. I think Bell does kind of get in Kobe's head a little bit because when Bell fouls Kobe hard, Kobe misses free throws. But Bell blew it by losing his cool and getting suspended.

Good shit. It's just like boxing and UFC: If you don't want the decision in the hands of the judges then knock your oppoenet the fuck out. If you don't want the game to be in the ref's hands then play BETTER.

Oh...and I think Raja Bell's on the verge of committing suicide or something.

What you talkin bout, man? You know anything bout basketball?

Bell's solid as fuck. He has a reputation of getting under other players' skin. Thats what he does. He was second in the league in three pointers made and 4th in three point percentage.
He even said its not about basketball, its about being a man. You think he's gonna back down to a prissy muthafucka like Kobe? Hell no. He said he regrets getting suspended but doesnt regret what he did to Kobe.
Commiting suicide? Thats just stupid..
