I played with Eric Chatfield the brother of Mike Chatfield at the University of New Mexico when I was a freshman and he was a senior. I never met his brother but Eric along with the coaching staff who were all from NYC Fran Fraschilla(espn analyst), Coach Savino, Coach Dooley(Kansas assistant coach) all spoke highly of Mike. From what I heard if he left the streets and went to school and played somewhere he will be in the League right now. Its really sad to hear this news. I know Eric loved his bro alot. Eric was real talented in his own right and still can play till this day. Last I heard he was in France doin work. Shot out to E.Chat if your reading this, hold your head bro you are in my prayers.-C.Bell

Yes, success comes with playing like a muther****er; with skills. Most of them, and many more were named earlier in Dimes’ list and previous postings. The muther****ers without skills get bounced from the game.

i agree fully with you Scoob. Kobe was gettin in ron’s head the whole game… and its fairly clear why the lakers would want that. losing ron via/ejection/foul trouble whatever almost ensures a rockets loss, and kobe singlehandedly did it by getting ron to lose focus and overreact. i think ron realized that after the game as well.
thats why kobe is a mofo, cuz he does things like this. and of course he’s gonna stay cool when ron gets in his face. the dude rarely flips out, because he’s so focused on being successful in the game, by any means necessary.

so my question is, does success (championships/accolades) only come with playing the game like a motherf—-r alongside exceptional playing skills/bball iq?

The game ie mental. Look at the great ones. MJ, Bird, Magic, Chuck, Clyde…listen. All those cats were dirty (forgot to throw McHale in there). You get a guy with Ron’s temperament and push his buttons what do you think is gonna happen. We just have to see how Robn reacts Friday nite.

Jeff:

From what I found before when the Mike Chatfield thing hit, was nothing on Mike, but his brother Eric could ball to. Ron and someone else who posted on Dime who said they knew Mike Chatfield and Eric said that Mike was the best out of the two and could’ve done something, but we all know how that goes…(check my name)…

Eric had a good season and is pretty solid player from reports.

The NBA would benefit greatly with a few more Ron Artests in the league. Make it happen Stern!

BTW, I can’t help but laugh hilariously when he gets into one of his crazy rants. Seriously, Ron’s nuts…and I love him. LOL

He reminds me of a dude I knew…he was crazy like Ron, big, tough, but always cool until someone pissed him off and then you just got out of his way and tried to stay cool with him…I think he ended up robbing a gas station with a steak knife…no joke. :p

I read the interview with Artest earlier today, and when I got to the part where he told the story about some kid getting impaled on the court, I looked at my co-worker and was like “Why is Ron Artest always making up crazy stories?” I thought for SURE this was fake. Good catch, Dime. Wow. Horrible…
