Matt Bonner the Chuck Norris of the NBA

by GuamND on Dec 11, 2008 3:46 PM CST

I found this funny post in Yahoo about Matt Bonner and Walker, Texas Ranger.
The fans comments are hilarious!

I thought this was the funniest:

"Matt Bonner doesn't rebound, the ball automatically falls in his hands for fear of it's life if it bounces anywhere else."

Some guys were even comparing Red Rocket to Brian Scalabrini which is madness!

Red Rocket > Scalabrini ALL DAY!!!

Bruce Lee wins. PROOF.

Bruce Lee only appeared to have won. Chuck Norris attempted to pull his punches in order not to kill Bruce Lee (one of the few humans that Chuck Norris considered worthy of respect). Unfortunately, due to relativistic effects caused by the near light-speed velocity of Chuck Norris’s roundhouse kicks, the punches landed years later, tragically killing Lee in the prime of his life.

I love Red Rocket

But nobody/nothing tops Chuck Norris.

Bruce Lee was such a bad ass. I wish my body looked like that. Unfortunately, it looks more like Chuck’s and that’s only because of the excessive hair.

You can tell from their bodies who’s the one that really dedicated his life to the martial arts.

by LatinD on Dec 11, 2008 9:46 PM CST up reply actions

I’d generalize and say that you could tell who dedicated his life to being a bad m10r.

I always wondered how Bruce would do in the octagon against UFC fighters. I say he could have taken down BJ Penn or George St Pierre in his prime.

UFC fighters always end up grappling on the floor. It might be effective, but it’s downright ugly to watch.

Wish they just gave them knives. There’d be no grappling then, oh no. Jiujitsu schmjitsu – gimme some real martial arts.

by LatinD on Dec 12, 2008 5:19 AM CST up reply actions

How about if they grappled on the floor with grappling hooks?

by Wayne Vore (ATS) on Dec 12, 2008 8:26 AM CST up reply actions

Grappling hooks are uncool.

Would you consider Capoeira a real martial art?

by Wayne Vore (ATS) on Dec 12, 2008 8:27 AM CST up reply actions

Short answer: no.

A-bit-longer answer: I’ve met guys who practiced Capoeira, even befriended one of them for some strange reason, ignoring all the crappy Brazilian music he listened to all the time (I’m such a nice guy). Even he admitted that those flashy Capoeira kicks in which the guys’ hands are planted on the floor were just about useless in real hand-to-hand combat. I’m not saying a good Capoeira artist wouldn’t kick my ass, because he would – just that it’s not a style meant for combat. It’s great for landing Brazilian chicks, though.

Want something flashy and effective? Try Kali.

Also, it’s not Brazilian. (Just kidding. Jiujitsu is a great martial art – it simply makes for boringass fights.)

by LatinD on Dec 12, 2008 9:51 AM CST up reply actions

True enough. I did Capoeira for a year or so about 7-8 years ago. It’s like half dance/half self-defense. Not really something you would want to learn just for kicking ass. But playing the berimbau is fun.

by Wayne Vore (ATS) on Dec 12, 2008 4:31 PM CST up reply actions

That it is. I did Aikido for a few years till real life ruined my life.

that was total bull, him getting ejected. garnett just can’t take some Bonner, that’s all.

don't forget Bowen

this video of Bowen leaping in the air and kicking a guy in the face really makes me laugh

by jedye on Dec 13, 2008 1:50 AM CST reply actions

That’s the best video ever. We should put it at the homepage or something. There’s a better version out there that has “everybody was kung fu fighting” playing as he dropkicks that loser.

I’ll miss Bowen.
