Richard Singleton, the security official who instructed the sign to com...

Raja Bell is Tougher Than You

Thu, 19 Nov 2009 09:00:12 -0500

We made fun of his decision to have surgery a bit yesterday, but the reality is that Raja is one tough and inspirational SOB: “Golden State played just seven men in a loss at Cleveland the night before on Tuesday, and Bell’s minutes were helpful as the Warriors stayed close with Boston for most of the game Wednesday. What’s more, Bell gave the Warriors an example of the gutsy, scrappy, sacrificial disposition they need to be successful. ‘That meant a lot for me,”...

Raja Bell’s Season May Be Over

Wed, 18 Nov 2009 10:30:13 -0500

As soon as he got a whiff of the toxic atmosphere on his new team, Raja suddenly remembered that his wrist was bothering him: “Newly-acquired Raja Bell told The Chronicle on Tuesday that he will have wrist surgery, a decision that adds to the Warriors’ injury woes and could cost the guard the rest of the season. Bell, who was picked up from Charlotte in the Stephen Jackson trade Monday, will go back east for surgery to repair a partially torn ligament in his left wrist. He’l...

Random Poll: Where is the Suns Roster the Weakest?

Tue, 17 Nov 2009 18:13:58 -0500

Consider this your totally random question of the day. After reading some comments about wanting Raja Bell back or not being able to get an early 2nd round draft pick that could have been used on Blair or Budinger, it got me thinking - just what are the biggest holes on the Suns roster? Is it the back up point guard where the Dragic / Barbosa combination still leaves questions? Is it the power forward depth where Lou is good but still....? Or obviously is it at center where Robin Lope...

Raja Bell chooses season ending surgery rather than play for the Golden State Warriors

Tue, 17 Nov 2009 15:26:24 -0500

Via Rotoworld Raja Bell will have the season-ending wrist surgery he put off while with the Bobcats. Bell would rather sit out the season than play for the Warriors and it's hard to blame him as he is going to try to get healthy for a free-agent deal this summer. He'll be an emergency player for Don Nelson tonight as they'll only dress eight players, but expect the surgery to happen soon. Anthony Morrow, Steph Curry and Corey Maggette get a nice boost with this news. Wow... Suck...

Bell, Bobcats beat up on road-weary Hawks

Fri, 06 Nov 2009 21:43:03 -0500

Raja Bell Could Be Out 4 Months

Wed, 21 Oct 2009 09:05:30 -0500

Some terrible news for the Bobcats. A wrist injury may knock Raja out for a very long time: “Minutes after the Charlotte Bobcats defeated the Milwaukee Bucks 94-87 Tuesday, coach Larry Brown announced starter Raja Bell has a torn ligament in his left wrist. If Bell chooses to have surgery, he’d miss up to four months in recovery. Bell plans to seek a second opinion from a Chicago hand specialist on whether surgery is warranted. In the alternative, Bell could try rest and rehabilit...

Charlotte Bobcats starting shooting guard Raja Bell has a partially torn ligament in his left wrist and will soon decide whether to have surgery which would sideline him up to four months.

Vlade Is Crafty On and Off The Court

Mon, 30 Apr 2007 16:42:40 -0500

Flope Divac was the King of the Flop. He was an innovator when it came to taking phantom fouls. I wish there were some statistic that calculated flops per game because Vlade would barely edge out Raja Bell as the most prolific of all-time. Anyways, Vlade is presently accused of doing an off-the-court flop of sorts, as he is being sued for allegedly selling counterfeit Gucci and Fendi products out of his L'Image Beauty Boutique, a store owned by Vlade and his wife, in Sacramento.

Stupid Quotes From Stupid People

Surfing the Internet can be a fun and interesting escapade. It is full of valuable and entertaining information, videos, pictures, stories, and blogs. Some blogs are insightful, others are downright idiotic. After realizing such carelessness, I have decided to point them out. It's a new segment I call "Stupid Quotes From Stupid People." This one comes from YAHOO! message board:
