The Idiot of the Week Award in basketball goes to?

Question

A. Ron Artest for his domestic violence.
B. Coach K and the Blue Devils for their cheap shot against N.C.
C. Kobe Bryant for his second suspension after slapping another player.

Answer 1

A...Ron Artest, everyone...including the Maloofs knew this was going to happen sooner or later...now hopefully they can put this clown behind bars where he and his agent cant keep conning the league...once a thug, always a thug...now lets see him sign a contract with a clause saying if he melts down again he has to give all the money back...I hear pac man is looking for a good running partner...they belong together...

Answer 2

A. Ron Artest for his domestic violence

Seriously, how many times is it going to take for this guy to beat somebody down before someone takes a hint??

Kobe can be excused this time cause he's hated on 99% of the time. Slapping a women in your home trumps slapping a player on the court this time around.

As far as Coach K, I'd probably take it to Hansbrough too. Too bad he didn't go down and out, Duke could've used the extra help in the ACC Tourney this week.

You should've had an option D. for Roy Williams from UNC for leaving his starting players in when up 15 points with less then 2 minutes to go. UNC fans claim that Duke is known for their dirty plays. Then those guys should've been hanging out on the bench in case it got to the point it did.

Answer 3

Ron Artest - not surprised. He's always been a punk.

Kobe Bryant - second suspension in the same season. Nuff said.

I'm still burned up about Coach K's attitude. He could have just said he was sorry and dropped it. But he started talking smack, basically saying Hanny had it coming. That really made me think he knew it would happen.
I don't care how long Hanny was in the game. I don't care if he had a 100 points. NOTHING justifies breaking his nose on a sucker punch. I don't recall people doing that crap to JJ Redick, no matter how many times he ran up a score.

Answer 4

Ron Artest

Answer 5

A. Ron Artest
No Doubt About It

Answer 6

B.!!!!!!!!!!!! Coach K had his goons playing thug ball the whole game. Hansbrough got a tooth knocked loose earlier in the game by those talentless Duke thugs. And then Coach K bee-yatching and moaning that UNC shouldn't have had their starters in. The fact is, Duke was calling timeouts in the last minute, and when UNC crossed the timeline with an ELEVEN point lead and only twenty-seven seconds left, Coach K had his players pressing and fouling. If Duke had an ounce of class, he would have backed off, let UNC call time-out and sub in their scrubs so they could play a little in the last home game of the year. Instead, they foul Fraser as soon as he crosses half-court. I hate those whiny punks.

Answer 7

A, because artest is an idiot, plain and simple, so your award is very befitting of him

using "coach k" exempts letter B from the award, because i think this was more henderson being frustrated and a bonehead than coach k, although he certainly didn't make it better with his post-game comments

kobe's an idiot too, but that is much more minor than a domestic violence arrest

Answer 8

Definitely Ron Artest for essentially ending his NBA career

Answer 9

B. Duke's supposed to be a good team but all they do is get in trouble. UNC tried to get Hansbrough out of the game but the guy missed his freethrow. Hansbrough should have been in the game because Duke could have come back, I think Coach K had something to do with the hit

Answer 10
