mysportsname This world and people are programmed and hypocrates. Years ago the cheap blow Lamar Odom gave Ray Allen would have been considered tuff play to send a message.
But now because there have been a few isolated-hysteric flagarant incidences in the league in which the NBA took strong action against, re-inforced by the way officials call plays, only now is it a big issue.
The average basketball NBA fan has no clue as to the mental persuave way the league has created a new culture for the way the game is played, officiated and enjoyed as a product. True talk.
Lamar Odom Goes Terry Tate On Ray Allen
FanIQ Blog —
Monday mornings are usually when I post big NFL hit highlights. Today, the NBA joins the mix.
Lamar Odom must have have saw this huge hit from Darrell Reid during halftime of the Lakers-Celtics game and became inspired.
Odom Playing Football
BostonsportZ —
Towards the end of last night Celtic victory over the Lakers, Lamar Odom decided he wanted to play football instead and tackled Ray Allen. Let's see what the league has to say about this move.
Lamar Odom Comes to Play on Sunday!
FanHouse —
Filed under: Celtics, Lakers, NBA Videos, Boston, Los AngelesMan, Lamar Odom's in the wrong sport. No official word from the league on how much this hit will cost L.O., though Protrade has an unsourced murmur of a whopping 10-game penalty. Odom was called for a Flagrant-1, and it should be noted Ray Allen's reaction earned (?) him a tech of his own. Video via BallHype. Permalink | Email this | Linking Blogs | Comments
Odom Tackles Ray Allen
LOY's PLACE a celtics green blog —
In the 4th quarter of last night's blowout win over the Lakers, Lamar Odom made one of the dirtiest and most bizarre plays I have seen in an NBA game. To set the stage, there was 2:57 left in the game and the Celtics were up 103-84. Doc still had the starters in. KG just had a big block on Odom and Ray Allen tracked down the ...

If Ray was driving for a layup or something like that, I'd be okay with it. All he is doing is tackling him. Suspension is necessary. December 31, 2007 liam said: Just a punk move. Good thing he got takin' out before one of the Celtics took him out... December 31, 2007 dooyork said: Can anyone explain why Ray Allen was called for a technical after that play? From what I saw, Odom just tackled Ray into the seats and then everyone jumped in and separate them and help Ray ...
Lamar Odom Suspended for Tonya Harding-Like Hit on Ray Ray
I *Heart* Celtics —
Lamar Odom has been suspended. Already one of the worst and most overpaid losers in the NBA, Odom's cheap shot (seen below) cost him a game without pay. As if that play didn't solidify Odom's position as a d-bag for the ages, he also did this: and this: and when he's not "on the court breakin' ankles", apparently he wears sunglasses inside and (gulp) runs his own recording studio: Lamar Odom, you stink. Ya ...
Lamar Odom: Good Kid, Dumb Player
HoopsBlogging —
Late in the Lakers 19-point loss against Boston on December 30, Lamar Odom was angry. He was not only pissed off at the fact that he had to wear short-shorts for the entire first half, but he outraged over the fact that he’s had a disappointing basketball career due to nagging injuries.
So what better way to get rid of his anger than to take it out on Ray Allen, right?
Right…well, according to Odom.
In an inexplicable move, Lamar Odom tackled Ray Allen to the ground while Allen was bouncing the ball near the three-point line. Odom wasn’t trying to stop the clock and send Allen to the line, he ...
Lamar Odom Gets Suspended for 1 Game
LAKERS4LIFE —
After what looked like a tackle made by a linebacker in the NFL, Lakers forward Lamar Odom gets a one game suspension from the NBA for his flagrant foul on the Boston Celtics sharp shooter Ray Allen on Sunday at the Staples Center. Justified suspension? Maybe. Probably. Yeah, Lamar Odom was aiming at putting Ray Allen on the injured list. The totally uncalled for flagrant was completely out of frustration, Odom doesn't have the reputation for being a dirty player by any means, but the Lakers were just not getting the calls against the Celtics on Sunday which in turn made the Lakers' forward lose his temper. HERE IS ...
Everybody’s Getting Chippy Against the C’s
Celtics 17 —
Chippy is a new word to basketball, and unfortunately the Celtics have been on the receiving end enough times in the media that it made me probe a little bit deeper as to what “chippy” means.
And I am not alone . . . .
Patrick Reusse Star Tribune (Minneapolis, Minn.) (Oct. 24) “The baseball gods must be angry”: The nonsensical night was not restricted to the ballplayers. Francona was wrapping up his interview session when a radio guy who had seen too many Patriots games asked: “Coach, do you think the long playoffs these two teams were in caused it to be ...
