First Jameer's bum ass told Bradley:

However, Avery revealed in a post-game interview that his full-court pressure annoyed Magic point guard Jameer Nelson so badly that Nelson actually asked Bradley to ease up. According to Bradley, Nelson begged him to back off: "I looked at him and he kept telling me throughout the game... 'don't pick me up.' And that's when I knew that if I brought pressure, he didn't want nothing to do with it."

Now:

Whether it's a generational thing or nikkas just being inherently bytchmade - this is the type of mentality the league has created, with the dumbing down of defense over the years (rules leading to the decline of physical defensive-play).

I can tell you that playing against the dude who wants to pick you up full court is kinda annoying. That being said, i'd have that defence on my squad anyday if I was a coach. I also wouldn't bytch about him covering me, and I wouldn't expect a professional to do it either.

As soon as Courtney Lee heard Stephen Curry's name, he knew where the conversation was headed.

"First of all, listen, you can put this on record: He's not scoring 54 in the [TD] Garden," said Lee, referencing how Curry hung an eye-popping 54 points on the New York Knicks at MSG on Wednesday night behind 18-of-28 shooting (11-of-13 beyond the 3-point arc) during a 109-105 loss.

"You know what I mean?" added Lee. "Where's my little pitbull at?"

Lee excused himself at that moment to go track down backcourt mate Avery Bradley, the pair having taken on the moniker "The Pitbulls" for their tenacious and rather relentless defensive pressure.

"The pitbull is not letting that go down," Lee said while pointing at Bradley. "And when the pitbull gets tired, you've got the other pitbull right here growling."

Asked if there was any way Curry would repeat his offensive outburst in Boston on Friday night, Bradley said simply, "No way. No way."
Bradley and Lee are the NBA's equivalent to Richard Sherman and Brandon Browner.

:wow:

Like I said in another thread Kobe is the last great player from the last generation. This generation is soft as fukk.

SMH at telling other players to ease up.
