I think it's pretty stupid of anybody to pass judgment on Q without knowing what Leon actually said to him, everybody's got a breaking point.

From what I could gather it was something along the lines of "Get a ring."

I heard Q's soundbytes on WEEI this morning and they attributed the "Get a ring" comment as the impetus for Q's comments.
Yup

  • You know my methods, Watson.
i'd pay money to watch a brawl between Q-Rich and Randolph versus Powe and Perk...yeah, i'd pay a good chunk of change to see that one in a dimly lit alley...

Q shouldn't be talking because it doesn't matter if he is curious about a different playing forum other than the NBA.

They play in the NBA, not on the streets of Coney Island.

In the NBA, the Celtics are the champs and they can talk all they want.

Q was overrated in LA and in Phoenix he was made by Nash and the offensive system. In NY, Q is nothing but a scrub.

I've never seen pierce laugh so hard while taking foul shots.  What was going on there? 
"You're skating on pretty thin ice around here, McGee!"
"Sounds like the ice's problem."

I believe the aforementioned Q was trying to get his trash talk on to paul, and paul was doing the best thing you can do to a trash talker, laugh at him  :)

If all Powe said was "get a ring", then A.) that's very funny, ad B.) Richardson's comments are even more off base than I thought.    Powe's right.  In that sense he has done a lot more than Richardson has done in his career.  I wouldn't advise Leon brining up the whole ring thing if Barkley, Malone, or Stockton were still on the court.  But to a bum like Richardson who loves to talk trash, that would be my first retort as well.
"Take this down," said O'Neal. "My name is Shaquille O'Neal and Paul Pierce is the (expletive) truth. Quote me on that and don't take nothing out. I knew he could play, but I didn't know he could play like this. Paul Pierce is the truth."

I'm not sure that would be the best course of action by Powe.  That would assume that Quentin Richardson cares about winning.  All he cares about is his stats, which unfortunately for him, also suck.  I think the best thing for Powe and the rest of the Celtics players to do is just laugh at all the Knicks players talking smack.

There's a reason the Knicks player talk so much before, during and after games.  It takes emphasis away from their "performance" on the court.

Man, Amager, I love the line breaks in your posts.  It's like you're a poet of Celtics related activities.  Any chance you can write us a sestina for Eddie House this week?

DKC Bucks. Also terrible.

Yawn.

I think its funny that he was quoted saying "I know theyre the champions and rah rah rah."  because wasnt it this time last year he was running his mouth about how overrated we were.

Then we took a big giant pee on them, a 40 point pee to be exact.

Kinda puts everything that Q Rich has to say in perspective.

Quentin who?

The only way he can keep any mention of himself in the media is by mouthing off to draw some attention.  His level of play isn't giving him any headlines and nobody cares who is.  Every time his mouth opens his IQ drops.  The more he talks the stupider he looks.

1. It is not right for a former MVP (KG), future Hall of Famer on a first place team to talk trash while beating his team by 45 on national TV (last year).

2. It is also improper for a defending NBA championship MVP/ future Hall of Famer to talk trash to him (last night).

3. Instead, it is totally permissible for QRich to talk whatever trash he wants because he was one of the top ten players last year on one of the worst teams in the history of the NBA.   

It all makes perfect sense.

Its pretty clear that Q-Rich is an idiot.

The sad part is he used to be one of my favorite players when he was young on the Clips.  I remember one of the first ESPN the Magazines ever featured Q-Rich, D-Miles, Maggette, and Keyon Dooling.  It was a great article about how they were all good friends and jsut played video games and hoop all day together.  That young (albeit bad) Clippers team became my western conference team to cheer for.  Turned out all those players either ended up busts or overpaid.
