For the weekend’s edition of Reebok Still Talkin’ Quote of the Day, we take it back to the days of the VHS tape. Here are some of the best sound bites from players from the late 80s and early 90s like Byron Scott, John Salley, Reggie Miller and the great Larry Bird. Read More »

There were quite a few compelling story lines after last night’s NBA action. Eddy Curry returned to the court, Dirk Nowitzki showed he is the most clutch player in the NBA, the Atlanta Hawks continued to prove that they are legit and the Cavs/Wizards “rivalry” was renewed. The Wizards, a staple of Reebok Still Talkin’ Quote of the Day series, were on a 6 game losing streak but had their team at full strength and use that strength to pull out a 108-91 victory. For today’s Quote of the Day we look at Gilbert Arenas’ post game remarks. Read More »

Outside of Northern California the hotbed for NBA drama has been in the Allen Iverson camp. We watched as arguably the greatest pound for pound, inch for inch scorer and future Hall of Famer was left flailing in the wind during free agency. We scratched our heads when he signed with Memphis and none of us were surprised when the Grizzlies granted him his release. Now we are left to wonder where Allen Iverson will land since he has made it clear he is not ready to stay retired. For today’s Reebok Still Talkin’ Quote if the Day we look to ESPN’s Chad Ford and his take on the AI situation. Read More »

You would think that if you’re in the NBA fraternity that you would have an easier time building a friendship with one of the stars in the league. Unfortunately that’s not always the case. Indiana Pacers rookies Tyler Hansbrough and A.J. Price learned that the hard way when they came across KG over the summer. According to this snippet from this Boston Globe story: Read More »

In honor of the first trade of the 2009-10 season, today’s Reebok Still Talkin Quote of the Day is a throw back. In 2006, the Suns were on the rise, coming into the playoffs as the number two seed. Kobe Bryant, on the other hand, was struggling to lead the Lakers, who were starting Smush Parker and Luke Walton at the time. The Lakers took a 3-1 series lead and it seemed that Kobe was going to single handedly lead the Lakers into the second round. Then the series turned physical and Raja Bell took charge guarding Kobe. Bell looked to frustrated the Lakers star and responded to Kobe’s physical play by clotheslining him. Raja earned a one game suspension but didn’t hold back when talking about Bryant. Read More »

Sir Charles is at it again. Always the entertainer Charles Barkley was in rare form last night. At one point he instructed the makeup artist to cover his face in white makeup mocking Sammy Sosa and went on to say that Kenny Smith was crazy for thinking Tina Fey was hotter than Sarah Palin. For today’s Reebok Still Talkin’ Quote of the Day we focus on a comment he made about another NBA great Scottie Pippen. Read More »

Yesterday I said that the Orlando/Cleveland showdown would give us plenty of trash talk for today’s Reebok Still Talkin Quote of the Day. Well Shaq chose not to speak to media after the game (eliminating any Dwight Howard references) and the rest of the Cavaliers didn’t offer much. However Shaq’s main man, the Master of Panic, Stan Van Gundy didn’t hold back and took a shot at his starting point guard Jameer Nelson and a subtle shot at three other NBA starting point guards.

Without Stephen Jackson or Ron Artest, with Shaq biting his tongue about Dwight Howard and the Washington Wizards officially swagless, the NBA had little trash talk last night. Hopefully with 16 games on the schedule tonight, including an Orlando/Cleveland showdown, there will be plenty of talk for tomorrow’s Reebok Still Talkin’ Quote of the Day. For today we go international and turn to the Israeli media and prep to Europe player Jeremy Tyler. We all know that Jeremy Tyler took the Brandon Jennings route (albeit for different reasons) to Europe and opted to forgo his senior year of high school to go pro. Thus far his European adventure has been less than impressive and according to Ze’ev Avrahmi (courtesy of Sports Illustrated’s Seth Davis) the team is growing sick of Tyler. Read More »

Stephen Jackson is quickly becoming this year’s Rasheed Wallace. In years past we could always count on ‘Sheed to give us a great sound bite or share his true feelings about a player, referee or coach. Since joining the Boston Three Party, he has been on his best behavior and left a Trash Talk void. Enter Stephen Jackson. He took a shot at his organization by demanding a trade and subsequently David Stern took a shot at his wallet, he talked trash about arguably the best player in the world, his agent went all in on his Coach and now he has shown even rookies can get Jacked Up. For today’s Reebok Still Talkin’ Quote of the Day we turn to Gerald Narciso’s best friend Stephen Jackson in an interview with Inside Warriors. Read More »

For the Reebok Still Talkin’ Quote of the Day series the trash talk as been somewhat uninspired. With the exception of Ron Artest and Shaq, most NBA players have been holding their tongue during interviews. The Paul-Rondo saga had the makings to be great, but both players refused to air their grievances in public. Maybe it is because it’s early in the season and a lot can happen or maybe the players are afraid David Stern will (Stephen) Jack part of their paycheck. Even our go to guy, Rasheed Wallace, have been suspiciously politically correct. Well, when the players aren’t giving us ammo we have to turn to their representation. For today’s quote of the day will turn to Stephen Jackson’s agent Mark Stevens. Read More »
