    Bill Walker is such a tool.  Yeah he may have a couple of decent dunks...in preseason...but this guy has been a jackass since high school.  So glad to see McGrady take his ass out like that.  And who does Eddie House think he is?  He's been a nobody for 10 years now.

    Walker shoved LeBron James earlier this week, too. He needs to check himself before he wrecks himelf.

    from ILTG2

    We knew the guy was outspoken and his comments about Lebron, Kobe, Arenas, etc but no harm there.
    He's then drafted to the Celtics and a story breaks out about him getting into it with KG in practice. Let's get this straight, a not so known rookie gets into a fight with the best player on the championship team who is also one of the best players of the past decade.

    In his 1st week of PRE-SEASON basketball he gets a nice dunk and then pushes Lebron James! Let's get this straight, a not so known rookie scores 2 points and pushes arguably the best player in the league.

    A couple of days later he's involved in a little shouting match with a few Rockets, in particular Tracy McGrady, who floored him just for being a rookie asshole. Tmac was ejected but he wasn't interested in playing more than 10 minutes anyways. A few minutes later, Walker gets a technical for messing with Yao Ming who happens to have a his body guard Ron Artest next to him. Let's get this straight, a not so known rookie almost gets into a fight with arguably the best duo in the league which includes one of the most known athletes in the world.

    WHO THE F### IS THIS BILL WALKER GUY AND WHO DOES HE THINK HE IS?

      Who is Bill Walker? A no talent hack. Simple.

      I think players have really lowered the bar on what will get them hype.  Getting squeeze off on a hard pick from Yao Ming?  Yeah, no need to push a 7-footer over that.  Especially when he probably knows kung-fu.

      Whatever.  But how about that Ron Artest keeping his boy out of trouble?

Oh please, enough of the “hide your ‘real’ strategy in preseason” BS
Arsenalist — It really irks me when players and coaches make quotes like these, in this case it’s Jamario Moon talking about the Philly game: “I don’t think we’re going to show them everything we have in this game and neither will they.” Piss off. Seriously. What can you possibly do on the court that ...

Bill Walker vs Tracy McGrady & Yao Ming
World Hoops Blog — Friday Night Fights was brought to us from Manchester New Hampshire last night when Celtics' rookie Bill Walker got chippy with Tracy McGrady and Yao Ming. The first dust-up came when McGrady gave the rookie a little love tap that sent Walker - as my grandmother used to say - "Ass over tea kettle". She was a Christian woman. That little thing lead to McGrady and Eddie House's ejection with about a minute left in the first quarter. The second incident came when Yao Ming set a hard pick that Bill Walker took a bit of umbrage to. Ron Artest ran into the stands and fought section 215 got into the middle to defuse the situation by holding the relatively docile Yao Ming back. ...

Rockets vs. Celtics, etc.
ROCKETS ADDICTS — If you're not happy with the chemistry we've got going, I don't know what games you're watching. Artest and Yao and T-Mac all getting each others' backs, not letting the Champs come in like big shots. T-Mac just can't sit out there and chill. Ron's ripping balls away from Pierce and body-checking Ray Allen out of bounds. Brent Barry, in the games he played earlier, looks to be as competitive as anyone out there. Any concerns of a lackadaisical, post-championship-run veteran set out to pasture in Houston have come and gone. The Rockets look like they've all bought in. They're all ready to go out there and put together ...

Video: Celts rookie Bill Walker ruffles the Rockets' feathers
Ball Don't Lie — Love him or hate him, Boston Celtics rookie Bill Walker sure is making a name for himself this October. Having already introduced himself to Theo Ratliff's head and LeBron James' chest, young 'Sky Walker' turned his attention (and biceps) to two-fifths of the Rockets starting line-up on Saturday. ClutchFans has the video. The ill will between the two teams didn't stop there. Paul Pierce and Ron Artest also got into a little dance in the third quarter, when Artest fouled Pierce, prompting Pierce to flip Artest to the floor for a technical foul of his own. Apparently, someone forgot to tell ...

Bill Walker Is Trying to Make a Name for Himself by Irritating Those Who Already Have
FanHouse — Filed under: Celtics, Rockets, NBA VideosWe're barely three games into the pre-season, and I'm already tired of hearing the name Bill Walker. It's not that I don't appreciate the youngster's talents, because I do: he's clearly got some skills or he wouldn't be on the court for the World Champs, even in these exhibitions. What needs to stop though is the unnecessary taunting of legitimate NBA All-Stars after making plays that might have been spectacular at Kansas State, but are simply average at the NBA level. Walker gave LeBron James an unnecessary shove after a mediocre dunk the other day, then took exception to ...

Bill Walker Is Quick To Make Friends
Intentional Foul — McGrady wants to tell Walker how he feels After posterizing Theo Ratliff to announce his arrival, Celtics rookie Bill Walker is trying to expand on the name he’s making for himself and he doesn’t care which opponent he pisses off in the process. Last week, he pushed LeBron James after dunking in his general direction — something that will probably come back to bite him in the regular season — and now he’s setting his sights on the Houston Rockets roster. First he bothers McGrady enough to make T-Mac retaliate and then he sets his sites on Yao and Artest. Apparently, ...

HCH Team Previews: Boston Celtics
HalfCourtHeave » Page not found — October 28th is fast approaching and before we get there, I gotta preview every NBA team.  Who’s going to break out, who you are going to want to see break his leg, where they will end up…everything.  At the end of all these, we are going to have a nice little playoff bracket going.  You are going to be seeing 2-3 a day, so pay attention!  Up now, the Boston Celtics (as always, agree/disagree let me know in the comments!). Last Year: Went 66-16 and won the whole fucking thing, leading to KG going bat shit crazy, and a Gatorade shower that the media made way too big a deal about.  Although ...

Bill Walker: Not so popular, apparently
Basketbawful — You know how ESPN.com provides current headlines and links on their NBA player pages? Well, take a peek at what recently popped up on Bill Walker's player profile... Somebody better adjust that automated headline retrieval application... This wasn't some amazing feat of computer hackery, either: It was a link to a real article: "Former Kansas State Wildcat Bill Walker is making a name for himself in the NBA as a dick. The Boston Celtics rookie acts like a punk throughout this three-minute video. He tangles with all-stars Tracy McGrady and Yao Ming of the Houston Rockets, and ...

JUSTIN KENDALL IS A DICK
I *Heart* Celtics — Thanks to Basketbawful for the heads-up, but some rando blogger is besmirching the honor of the venerable Bill Walker. This is what he says: Former Kansas State Wildcat Bill Walker is making a name for himself in the NBA as a dick. The Boston Celtics rookie acts like a punk throughout this three-minute video. He tangles with all-stars Tracy McGrady and Yao Ming of the Houston Rockets, and McGrady knocks Walker on his ass. Walker apparently didn't learn his lesson. Later in the video, he starts pushing Ming, and riot-starter Ron Artest actually plays peacemaker. Nice, Walker. You actually made Artest appear angelic. I agree with NBA Fanhouse: ...

Bill Walker, The Boston Celtics' 2nd Round Pick, Is Really Bothering A Lot Of People
