Lets take a moment to remember Ricky Davis being an idiot and Jerry Sloans response.

I want one of those men back in the league and the other barred from the game like Pete Rose. Figure out which.

You want Ricky Buckets back, right? We all want Ricky Buckets back.

Sloan's dumbfounded look on the bench never fails to crack me up. :oldlol:

With a 25-point lead and just 6 seconds remaining in the game, Cleveland Cavaliers guard Ricky Davis purposely shot and missed a layup at his own basket in a cheap attempt to notch his first career triple-double. At the time Davis had 26 points, 12 assists and 9 rebounds.

Utah Jazz guard DeShawn Stevenson immediately took exception and fouled Ricky Davis hard. Following the game, Utah's Hall of Fame coach Jerry Sloan spoke on the incident and said he was "glad DeShawn tried to knock him down" and that if he were a player he "would've knocked him on his [rear]."

did they count the rebound?

[FKAri]

I was mad about it back then but looking back at it. Who cares? It's just a meaningless basketball game and Ricky wanted to add something rare to his career.

Who was the big man that cried to the other team to let him grab a last rebound for a triple-double?

Just found it: Andray Blatche

It's called having principles as a professional basketball player and respect for the opposition and the game.

did they count the rebound?

No, its not a shot unless it's at the opponent basket, which is when you are on offence.

Sloan's still in the league. Works for the Jazz. He's starting to look super old though. Doesn't look capable of the travel/stress/late nights of a bench job anymore.

Makes me sad that Sloan looks so old and Hot Rod Hundley, the announcer on that vid, has passed on.

[G-train]

Yer Sloan left Head Coaching when it became a players league, and coaches got less authority than the supposed stars eg Deron.
