Chicago Bulls logo, when turned upside down pictures a robot reading a bible

[Patr1ck]

LOL. Notice the robot has a frown, too.

[shadowgrin]

Nice.

Who is taller, Beno Udrih or Devin Harris?
(I searched wiki and they are both listed at 1.91 m. I went to getty to see a picture of Udrih and saw a pic that looks like it got resized out of proportion.)

Rudy Fernandez or Marco Bellinelli?

How would you find that out?

I searched wiki

I think you might be onto a winner there.

[Oznogrd]

ESPN.com has them listed both at 6'3 for Udrih and Harris. Is the fractional difference that important to you?

Rudy is 6'6 and Bellinelli is 6'5. again listed at espn.com

[john26]

^^it is. that is why I am asking here

Well i answered the second one. If you're getting into less than a millimeter difference between harris and Udrih...well...can't help ya there...not sure if anyone can. Most people tend to round...or there's the distinct possiblity...they're actually the same height

is it illegal to put a hand in someone's face when making a they're making a layup?

[J@3]

As long as you don't actually touch them it's fine.

May sound like a silly qn; during the championship ring ceremony, players who are not with the team anymore (e.g Ariza), will they be present to receive their rings? If not, how will they receive it then?

[JaoSming]

Posey got his Celtics ring when they first played the Hornets

retired players usually get them with the team

[Abctest123]

On somewhat of the same subject, how about their visits to the Whitehouse (in regards to players on different teams, newly acquired players, retired ones) ? They have those if I remember correctly after the offseason, when all the roster changes have been made and all that.

[benji]

Depends on scheduling, but the team that won is the one that has attended traditionally. (i.e. the Pistons who left after 2004 all attended at the White House even though they had moved onto other teams.) I can't find anything on when they attend, usually (well, during Bush) they attended late in the summer. (Just before training camp, IIRC.) Again depends on scheduling which leads into...

Guess they might not host the Lakers since the season has already started. Although, Kobe might get jealous being overshadowed by a bigger egomaniac. So it might be off. Or the White House forgot about it while they were busy doing nothing.

JaoSming covered the other question. Players not on a team usually receive with the team, players who changed teams receive when they come into town. (Unless it's arranged to give them behind the scenes of course. In which case they probably just mail them. It's not like there's a required ceremony or anything, they can just mail them to the players or give them backstage.)

Anybody Knows how much 3-Pointers Quentin Richardson Has Made and Attempted?
Its Kinda Interesting.

[Cartar]

You mean during his entire career? 2660 attempted, 941 made during the regular season and 82 attempted and 32 made during the Playoffs.

[Rip32]

Probably more aimed at people who watched the T'wolves this past decade, but was Ndudi Ebi as bad as I think he was?

Haha, I knew he was a high school-to-NBA bust, but I just loved this clip at 0:26, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jPlw31lK0N0&feature=player_embedded

[Sportsgamer]

Does anyone know where to find long game recaps than on NBAs Youtube channel?
I barely watch 1 game per day, but still want to see all highlights, NBA only shows one highlight and stats.
Thanks

click teams next to TNT OT and FEATURED

then pick a team for their recent games

~2 minutes is all youre going to get though

[Sportsgamer]

Thanks, but isnt there a way to put them all in a video? That way is a bit too complicated. I remember that JalenRoseTV did recaps, but I just cant find some

[koberulz]

I know the lowest scoring game ever has been discussed, but does anyone know the lowest winning score of the shot clock era?

[boshalladay]

Just listening to the Raptors commentators, they mentioned the "lowest scoring game of the shot-clock era" 64-62 Raptors over the Jazz. That has to mean that that is the lowest winning score of the shot clock era.

That got me stumped.

Question: When the Rockets signed David Andersen, did they use the rookie-scale exception? What exception did they use to sign Andersen? I know it's not the diasbled player because they used it on Ariza.
