When Booing Is Its Own Punishment
The NBA has only been open for two days and Kris Humphries is the league's leading rebounder (Damion James is tied for second) and the likely leader in boos per touch (DJ not so much). Yet, The Most Hated Player in the NBA looked like he was having a grand time Monday night in Washington in spite of it all.
Before the game, he made light of his Most Hated title, telling Jessica Taff of YES, "How does that happen? We need to get that poll audited."
But really, what the heck is this all about? Avery Johnson is mystified, "I don’t know why. I’m trying to figure out, what did he do?" Johnson said. "I’m serious. Maybe because I don’t follow reality TV, I don’t know all the ins and outs of it but it’s pretty hilarious to me."
Shaun Powell of NBA.com might have the best explanation: "For those who complained they were 'duped' by a reality show wedding, perhaps that’s more a reflection on … them, maybe?"

Winning is a team effort………I also believe that MarShon will have a breakout game tonight……At least twenty points……..

if that JUMPER IS FALLING FOR HIM HE CAN GET YOU 15-20
Look at the numbers horford and NOAH PUT UP TO GET ALL STAR CONSIDERATION. hump can get you 15 and 12 realistically maybe even 18 and 13 not many in the NBA will match it. if we are in the playoff hunt DWILL AND HUMP ARE ALL STARS
people forget he averaged a double double and wasn’t starting till after February now starting the whole season and getting minutes.

first time he's a starter from day 1
that and his new found fame are the only things different. Some people are just late to catch on.
Do you guys think Hump will exercise his no trade clause?
He’s a starter with the nets and making a big impact. If he goes to another team its not gauranteed he gets the same minutes and its again a contract year for him…

SOmething tells that the Nets have an agreement in the works with him. If he is traded to Orlando, we’ll probably sign him back in the off season.

-Julius Erving
I honestly can see that we have an agreement with Humphries
That if he is traded, he can’t veto it. It could have easily been one of the conditions that Nets demanded before they signed him. So it’s very much possible that they have a gentleman’s agreement about that.
Doubt it personally
but it’s unenforceable regardless
unenforceable, yes

Nets Mets Giants ALL DAY
Yeah, losing JJ and Tyson Chandler was a huge blow. I think Cuban screwed up big time but if he gets Deron Williams all is forgiven.
But I don’t think he’s going to. Dwight is coming to Brooklyn
as if they're attractive to Deron
the way they are currently constructed.
Deron doesn’t know what their plan is.
And Deron knows what the Nets are doing, and even have a say on what personnel to bring in.
Deron can earn more money by staying, and keeping assets within HIS team. Unlike if he’s traded, assets go the different direction. Definitely won’t appeal to him.
I still believe we can do IT !
You don’t have to tell me, but he is from Texas. At the end of the day you really don’t know but I agree with everything you’re saying. The Nets look like the best team for Williams going forward.
It wasn’t his choice to come here. This has always been a test for the Nets, could they convince Deron Williams to stay if they traded for him. They took the gamble and he has been told all along that the gamble was so they could go after Dwight Howard and create a new super team.
I don’t know that Deron will 100% definitely leave if Dwight isn’t a Net by next season.
Mavs lost too much
Barea, Chandler, Stevenson, Butler were very important to that team
Odom and Carter do not nearly add what those 4 did. Mavs are in trouble. Lost two of their best defenders! And we all know VC doesn’t play any defense.

Adam Morrison got his team multiple championships barely trying, if that's not a great player...I don't know who is.

To say Carter's still got something left in the tank is beyond ridiculous

Lakers on their third game of a back-to-back-to-back tonight against Utah.
I know I’ll be watching tonight to see if Derrick Favors can ball out against a tired Laker team.
utah's first game
lakers 3rd in a row, favors and his young legs could do some damage

Love THE HUMPH!
Hate that no talent, fat ass. At least he wasn’t married to her for 25 years!

What’s with all the Kardashian bashing, it’s Hump’s fault for signing a reality TV contract. People are booing Hump because he is both dumb and lucky.
But that’s okay because he loves it. He is getting more attention than he ever has before, that’s why he signed up for the reality show and signed up for keeping Kim’s bed warm, which isn’t a bad perk of the job.
I can't blame him
but I can see that this world is getting dumber by the day if they boo a man for smashing one of the hottest around and being on TV.

Are they really going to talk about Orton vs Tebow?
Are they serious?
On basketball side… whats Avery saying?

Nothing really...
They asked him stupid questions about Kris like do they feel it will be a distraction. And they asked about Brooklyn a little bit. And that was pretty much it.

i think
Orton is one of the most underrated players in the league. He is a VERY good QB and unfortunately never got much of a chance because of the chosen one

Hump should have his own audio byte when he scores
Rip off the tune from George Clinton and P-Funk and call it:
“WE WANT THE HUMP”

This is great
as long as Hump continues to produce
which he will. I see no reason for a drop off unless he gets hurt. Dude is a professional.
professional on contract year. if every pro had only 1yr contracts, everyone would be beasting.
DWill oop to D12
Otis Smith makes Travis Outlaw look like Avery Johnson
I agree
but if Hump has two years in a row of beastly performance, I’d be willing to give him the benefit of the doubt that his production won’t drop off dramatically once he signs a multi year deal.

it's not about that being a fluke
it’s about playing hard all the time and not slacking.
I still believe we can do IT !
A fluke

This would be awesome if its sold out
And because of it being the holiday week people should be off from school/work so it should be packed by tip off. Not to mention its a 730 start not 700. I’ll be in section 10 row 2 Lets go Nets!
