Many people, mostly Heat fans or non Maverick fans, are talking trash about the Mavericks complaining about Stack's suspension. "Mavs fans just think the NBA is picking on them, he's suspended so just get over it." Then...as soon as a player or coach voices their opinion they call them a bunch of whiney babies. Am I right?
Here are just a few quotes from some Heat players after Posey's suspension earlier in the postseason....
--------------------------------------------
MOURNING
Mourning, like Posey, claimed the foul was nothing more than an old-school play straight out of the late 1980s and 1990s. Of course, the league has tried to get away from that by changing the defensive rules and implementing stiffer penalties.
"You go back and pull out some of those old tapes and look how playoff basketball used to be played," Mourning said. "That's how Michael (Jordan) defined his greatness — playing against the Detroits, those teams that put him on his (butt).
"When Bill Laimbeer was putting him on his (butt), there weren't flagrant fouls back then. He just got a foul and Mike went to the line and shot his free throws, and (Laimbeer) stayed in the game.
"They let the players decide the game," Mourning continued. "It wasn't the league deciding, 'We can (keep) this guy out because he fouled this guy hard.' C'mon, man. Be for real. It's ridiculous. Ridiculous."
POSEY
"All you've been hearing and reading about is the intent to hurt someone and things like that," Posey said. "Back in the day, the guy would have just bounced up, got two free throws and went about his business. Nowadays, it's not like that. You breathe on somebody, it's liable to be a foul."
NOW THAT DALLAS HAS THE SAME ARGUMENT......THEY ARE IDIOTS AND BABIES FOR VOICING IT!
AMAZING!
