Lindsey (and apparently Rip Hamilton) are saying what many fans have been saying about all the “love” between Rasheed Wallace and Kevin Garnett during these Eastern Conference Finals. We love Sheed, but there’s a time and place for that stuff.
Some funny stuff from Chris McCosky’s newest blog entry. Looking at the their builds I’d have to say the smart money would be on Lindsey every time.
With the cameras rolling, Lindsey Hunter and Juan Dixon engaged in a little, good-natured grappling session in the locker room before the game Sunday. Apparently, a challenge was issued — not sure who the instigator was, but the smart money is on Hunter — and the two have been going at it verbally about who is stronger or whatever.
Well, Hunter walked over to Dixon, put a bear hug on him, lifted him off the ground and then dumped him on the ground — right at my feet. Dixon complained that Hunter caught him off guard, but apparently, the two went at it again in the trainer’s room, with the same result — Hunter pinning Dixon.
“That’s what I do!” Hunter told Dixon. “That’s what I do.” Dixon countered with: “I ain’t never going to quit.” To which Hunter said, “My cousin never quit either, but that doesn’t mean he ever won.”
Pretty funny stuff. Actually, the funniest part was, right in the middle of it, security chief Jerry Hendon ran out of the room saying, “I’m going to call security.”
Looks as if Lindsey “The Hunter” will finally be trading in his suit for his familiar #10 red, white, and blue get-up. Chris McCosky is reporting that the Pistons are going to activate Lindsey on Wednesday in time for the showdown in Cleveland.
“It’s something he worked out with Joe,” Saunders said. “We will try to wean him in there. He’ll have (four) weeks to get back into the fold.”
Sounds like Linds and Joe D are pretty tight. Lindsey hasn’t been practicing but I have a feeling he keeps himself in shape and since we’ve been at home a lot recently he probably hasn’t had too many opportunities to throw down at the Cheesecake Factory. Even if he did though there’s always his wife’s diet pills…just kidding, just kidding.
When Lindsey is in full playoff ball-hawking mode does that mean our guy Afflalo is the odd man out since Juan Dixon has come into the fold?
