Open Field Tackle Earns Odom a Suspension
Lamar Odom has been slapped with a one-game suspension (without pay) for his takedown of Ray Allen on Sunday night.
(I implore you to turn up the speakers on your computer if you want to hear the sweet musings of one Kevin Garnett that opponents must listen to after KG unceremoniously blocks their shot. It comes at about the :03 second mark.)

For someone as prolific as KG, you think he could come up with a different saying than the one commonly used by every street urchin player and NBA player that makes a block.

The suspension was the right decision. It was a dumbass play. The Lakers said that he “never would intentionally hurt Ray”, could be, but it was a dumb foul.

odom was frustrated…and in the milisecond kg has to make a statement, i’d say the cliched ’street urchin’ like works quite well

How does KG manage to be hyper competitive and yet still be a good guy? Like today, i heard a really dumb proposal from our new new OPS VP, and i said “get that $hit outta here!” just like KG. And now they’re saying I’m not a “team player” Would love to understand how to walk that line better.
