First thought: Wow, DeJuan Blair is on the Wizards?

Second thought: Wow, Daniel Orton is still in the NBA?
At least a goldfish with a Lincoln Log on its back goin' across your floor to your sock drawer has a miraculous connotation to it.

You said it.

Wish we had a "goon" type player right now that could do that.

Celtics still owe Wade one (more specifically, Rondo does.)

Typical of Noah - absolutely hate that guy with a passion. 

The foul from Pierce was nothing at all, just a standard 'hold the guy to stop the fast break' foul.  Even Butler seemed relatively unphased by it.  For a good minute or two everything was calm and there were no dramas at all.

Then Noah has to come along to run his mouth and shove him. 

Why did he do this a good couple of minutes AFTER the situation was over and calm? 

Is the guy too mentally slow to respond when it happened, or did it just take him a couple of minutes to realise "hey, if I push him now my teammates will think I've got their backs and I will get my ugly face on TV!"?

Joakim Noah - always has been and always will be one of the biggest whining jerks in basketball.  Precisely why I would have zero interest in ever having him in a Celtics uniform.  He should join OKC, he and KD would make the ultimate NBA "All-Whiny-Jerk" team.

I think it's dumb that those four guys get suspended for a regular season game based on a preseason altercation. Not a fan of that.

Definitely a fan of Pierce there however.
