You Don’t Mess with The Z-Bo

From last night’s Suns/Clippers euthanization, Zach Randolph lays his B-Hop game down on Louis Amundson‘s face.

Why did Z-Bo do it? From this morning’s Arizona Republic:

“Zach’s crazy,” Suns forward Matt Barnes said of Randolph, who likely will receive a multiple-game suspension before the Suns play the Clippers in Los Angeles tonight.

Randolph said he hit Amundson with an open hand and that Amundson “hopped up and got in my face, almost kissed me in my mouth.”

  3. Dip Set City says:

  4. Anthony says:

    Lol @ Z-Bo’s comment.

    Now thats “Gangsta”

    Sometimes you have to know when to stay down on the ground!

  7. LeBEAST_13 says:

    Z-Bo is one dude that deserves to rot in Clipperland.

  8. A$$Cube aka Zoo-York says:

    That’s exactly why the Knicks were better off getting rid of him. No doubt he can play at a very-high level, but that’s the kind of behavior that would fit it Zeke’s Knicks, but D’Antoni’s, not so much.

    What a change for the Clipps, going from world-class citizen Elton Brand, to Thuggish Ruggish Z-Bo…

    Anyway. Who really cares? This is the Clippers we’re talking about. Well, I think you do care Austin. Imagine the Clipps moving to Seattle. You could see Randolph play 41 times a year! ;-)

    I this he got paid by the people in my fantasy league to sabatage my team. SABOTEUR!!!!

  10. Benis says:

    1ST!!!!

    zbo’s crazy

    i heard he’s gay

  11. Big V says:

    Wow. That was crazy. Couple of games for sure for Z-Bo, not like it would have mattered anyway.

  12. alimoe says:

    pretty weak to let a guy like Amundson get in your head

  13. yoda says:

    why didn’t he tried same thing with shaq?

  14. what? says:

    agreed with Alimoe….Z Bo is just another overpaid chump.hope he rots not only in clipper land but hell as hell

  15. fallinup says:

    Who’s #2…that Drajic dude?

    Homey saw what was going down…was walking towards Amundson until he saw ZBo standing over him…he put his head down and walked away. Then, when the shit went down, he turned around like “Oh no, somethings afoot!”

    Amundson may be a scrub but he’s at least your team mate. If that were someone say like, Steve Nash..the whole bench woulda cleared.

    Sissyfied Suns.

  16. SJ says:

    Rando is a punk. Suns should have choked his ass for that sissy play. Big dude can’t even throw a good punch… I would say I feel bad for the Clips, but it’d be a lie.

  17. Kudabeen says:

    Admundson took the hit and didn’t seem all that agitated…? To not want blood after that is not a good sign of toughness. Admundson gets pretty much a free pass to at least go after Zach, but opted to think about it first…I guess that is taking the high road, but Zach knocked him off that road twice…We all know Zach doesn’t have the mental faculties of a leader or example of professionalism, so it’s no shock…

    I didn’t watch the game and don’t watch the Suns often, but does Admundson get into it with guys a lot? does he get under people skin? I thought he was just a great energy player…

  18. fallinup says:

    @ Kudabeen

    I think he’s an okay role player. Energy guy with maybe 3-4 good years in the L in him.

    Zach hit him because of his pussy ass pony tail. I know that would be my excuse.

  19. fallinup says:

    Too Amundson’s defense. You can’t knock the dude for getting intimidated while on the ground…he did get up, and step right up in ZBo’s face. Before he got stole on.

  20. YOUNGFED..."I got 2 balls I'ma pass'em to ya Baby Mama" says:

    @fallinup
    “Stole on” nawl bruh tell me you didnt just say that.

  21. the rocket cat says:

    I thought he took the hit really well… did a good job of absorbing the impact without really getting hurt. Good job staying on his feet.

  22. ed says:

    zachs never been accused of having a high IQ, so i’m not surprised he tried to punch someone during a game. hes the type of player who goes broke ten years after he retires and can’t pay his child support payments. ha

  23. E$ says:

    This is what “white america” was afraid of when Obama was elected – lol

  24. Heckler...formerly 'yallallreadyknow' says:

    that still does not beat the 1-2 combo chris childs gave to kobe bryant.

    that had to be the greatest 1-2 punch combo on an nba court.

    someone find that vid clip and post it. please!
    that shit was hella funNAY!!

  25. control says:

    Zbo is a fucking pussy, there’s no way he’d go at anyone without sucker punching them first. Then tossing out some excuse like “he was trying to kiss me”, what a fucking retard. There ain’t no way he’s doing that to Amare or Shaq. This is just another reason why Fat Zach ain’t ever going to be shit in the league, and why he will probably end up homeless 5 years after he’s done, the guy is just a piece of shit.

    Amundson actually took the punch pretty good, but I doubt it hurt, Zach’s arm fat slowed it down quite a bit.

  26. PALakerFan says:

    Z-Bo punches like a pussy. 6’9″, 280? Free punch to the jaw and you can’t even put a guy down? Weak.

  27. Jason says:

    He did have a free shot and took it and did NO damage. Where i’m from that’s knock out city baby. ZBO def needs a new nickname b/c he packs no punch. Now the rest of the L knows so he’s fair game.

  28. Draps says:

    @17 Admunson did the right thing, he stepped to him, got hit out of no where but didnt jump AFTER everyone got in front, meanwhile that donkey Randolph is getting suspended and losing pay, Admunson gets to keep his cheques fool!

  29. Kudabeen says:

    Draps…

    I’ll be a fool for a moment, but you are a pussy for life…

    Admundson wouldn’t lose money for having a reaction of anger…No one says he had to fight the world and run in the stands and slap babies…Just not get hit take 10 steps back and look like “why you do that?”

  30. Jason says:

    Zach Randolph aka “locker room killa.”

  31. Bron42 aka Your Moms Best Friend says:

    Amundson reppin for the UNLV boys lol…if that was a punch than randolph is weak as shit…big lou just rolled off it and came right back lol…put some hip into it damn

  32. dagwaller says:

    I’m kind of impressed at how Amundson took that punch honestly.

  33. jg says:

    He looked like Drago from Rocky when he took that punch lol…….

  34. weezy f says:

    none of the suns came to his defense

  35. UncheckedAggression says:

    That is a little strange that nobody came to his defense. But still, you guys gotta lay off Asmundson. At least he didn’t get knocked down, and when he righted himself Randolph was already surrounded by his teammates.

    Also, Randolph is no pussy. If he had a full wind-up on that, there is no way Asmundson could stay on his feet. Barnes is right and I think most of the league knows that Randolph is crazy. That could be one of the reasons nobody on the Suns stepped in…

  36. Austin Burton says:

    For everyone saying Z-Bo is soft for not dropping him, remember that Amundson is not a small dude. You don’t see heavyweight fights knock each other out with every clean punch, do you?

    (Yes, I’m desperately trying to defend Zach at every turn.)

  37. YOUNGFED..."My neighborhood was the roughest, but still I remain. Just kept stackin' my change remained the same." says:

    @Austin
    Not sure about that one ask the guy that knocked out Suge Knight. lol

  38. fatty says:

    more like gaZ-BO, that fat mofo. he couldnt punch his way out of a wet paper bag with scissors in his hand.

  39. that's whats up says:

    it’s funny how the NBA pulls down youtube clips only if it is bad for their image
