the internet said:Well this week the trophy goes to one of the biggest morons of the basketball world, otherwise known as the smartest athletes professional association. The biggest moron of them all seems to be Alonzo Mourning who said this week that he sacrificed everything for his chance to play with the Miami Heat and get into the playoffs and contribute. Well I suggest sacrifice is a pretty strong statement, and let's look at the ungodly sacrifice this asshole has made.
1. Signs a 3 year deal with the New Jersey Nets, not the Miami Heat, for a ton of money 2 years ago. Plays like a chump. But wants to be on a contender. Of course with his medical situation (which I will delve into later) his contract is uninsurable. New Jersey GM makes a big mistake.
2. In his first ultimate sacrifice he demands a trade back to the Heat because he is unhappy with direction of Nets. Of course this had nothing to do with his lousy play or lengthy absence. I mean this is the Basketball god known as ZO right. How could he play for this terrrible team, he has standards you know.
3. New Jersey try to buy him out. He refuses because in Zo's world sacrifice doesn't mean I don't get paid.
4. Gets traded to Raptors, refuses to shows up, comes up with the I am sick line. Meanwhile attending Heat games, and jumping up cheering for the club, but oh let's not forget the reason he isn't playing for Raptors is he is sick, therefore Raptors still have to pay him. If he refused to play no Money. Again sacrifice doesn't mean I don't get paid, right asshole.
5. Rob Babcock in a moment of David Koresh lunacy buys out The "Whole High and Mighty Sacrificer" Alonzo Mourning for 10 million. Meaning Alonzo doesn't play a second in Toronto and gets 10 million. Ladies and gentlemen if this is not sacrifice I don't know what is.
6. Signs with Heat professes he made an extreme sacrifice (10million, plus lying he is sick).
Well Zo we should just put the crown of thorns on you because aren't you just the J.C (Jesus Christ) of the NBA. The ultimate sacrifice of lying, cheating and taking money. Your a goddamn disgrace. Although if you meant sacrifice as giving up your dignity and manhood I could see that.
So what does the NBA do with this guy. They market him as someone people should look up to because he is a warrior for overcoming kidney problems. Well it's no wonder Kids are screwed up these days using these aholes as role models.
DBK said:The Heat are probably the worst championship team in a long time. They mainly got there because they still won't referee Shaq according to the rule book, and they have the best overall player in the NBA (who also happened to get fouls every time he looked at a ref). It helps that the Pistons imploded and Dallas inexplicably collapsed.
I love Dwayne Wade but I fucking hate that team. People in Miami don't give a shit about basketball, or sports at all, unless it's some "event" they can be seen at. Hell, even in good years they struggle to sell out a pro football game. But mainly I hate them because they feature several players on the "NBA Asshole Hall of Fame" roster.
Starting PG - Gary Payton
Backup PG - White Chocolate Moron J. Williams
Forward - Antoine Walker
But the key, and probably the biggest dickhead that ever donned an NBA jersey - Alonzo Mourning. It's hard to describe what a shitsack he is, and the sad thing is that it's largely gone unnoticed because he was a sympathetic figure at one point. There was a time I liked the guy, and certainly felt bad for him. Well, he did his damndest to throw all that in that toilet. I can't find the great NBA Article that summarizes it, but here's something I dug up...
This guy neglects to mention the additional cash he was getting paid from his first "retirement", plus the money he signed on his new deal. So yes, the poor Zo was getting paid $17 million by way of three teams, two of which he wasn't playing for(the Nets and Raptors just because he didn't WANT to). Sure made a miraculous recovery after sulking on the bench "ill" to be jumping around like an idiot screaming at old ladies in the crowd a few weeks later.
And people lauded this asshole for giving 200k to kidney research. Yeah fucking right. If you give a shit, how about giving up that $10 mil you're getting paid NOT to play, considering thats in addition to the salary you are drawing TO play? I sure hope someday I get hired somewhere, get promised a shitload of money, immediately say fuck this I want to go elsewhere, but get to take all the cash with me.
Let me just say, in the words of Alonzo Mourning repeatedly when asked about why he was stealing money, "Alonzo Mourning has to make the best business decision for Alonzo Mourning".ow:
