Sports InsiderScottie Pippen Needs Two Ladies to Handle His Six Footer.

All-Star game balloting has never been fair. Let’s face it, in the years that Vince Carter was a perennial starter, most of those seasons he shouldn’t have been in the starting five. Injustices still abound in this current climate with Steve Nash not getting anywhere near a starting spot behind an oft-injured, Tracy McGrady for crying out loud!
With our justice hats on, we here at NBALOUD would love to lobby voters to give at least one
Detroit Piston a starting spot. Yes, we know that this is a futile proposition at best – but give Chauncey Billups or Rip Hamilton a go!
How sad is the state of affairs with the fan voting? Gilbert Arenas who has not played at all this season has garnered more love than Rip or Mr. Big Shot. It’s hard to believe that this is the same Agent Zero who sat in a Foot Locker stuffing the ballots for himself back in the day.
Detroit are only behind the hot, hot, Boston Celtics in terms of wins in the East, and is one of the only two legitimate teams out in that side of the States to have a real shot at unseating the San Antonio Spurs for the title.
The sad fact is that the prettiest girls will always get invited to the school dance at the expense of the cute, smart, interesting and personable girl in your biology class. Rip is resigned to the fact once again that his participation in the mid-season classic is up to league coaches – even if Hamilton is playing some of the best basketball of his life: “It doesn't surprise me, because every year it's the same old thing…I just think the way that I play ... I'm an old school player. There ain't too many flashy moments. Every now and then, I'll get up and dunk on somebody or something like that. But it doesn't surprise me at all.” (Blakely, mlive.com, 2008)
And, he plays for the Pistons.
Speaking of weird occurrences, Isiah Thomas, the dead man walking coach of the New York Knicks has recently claimed that his team is capable of winning a championship. Excuse this writer for being a little sceptical of Zeke’s sanity. Or, he has been hanging around Towelie for too long.
Here is the exact Thomas quote. Be prepared to choke on either your breakfast, lunch or dinner. Better yet, you can choke on all three meals by reading these words over and over again.
“My belief and what I see and where I believe we can go as a team and an organisation, I believe one day that we will win a championship here and I believe a couple of these guys will be a part of that," Thomas said before the Knicks were walloped at the Garden by the depleted Sacramento Kings, 107-97. "I believe I'll be a part of that.”
Blame this delusion on Towelie.
Today’s video is a cracker of a clip featuring Chicago Bulls legend, Scottie Pippen trying to sell sub sandwiches. The best part of this is not the woefully inadequate acting of Pip, but these immortal lines: “This is one six-footer I can't handle by myself. Ladies, let's have a party.” Geez, Pip is packing a cannon there!
