JTB Posted November 5, 2018 Report Share Posted November 5, 2018 So I’m listening to nba radio (Frank and Brian Scalabrine show) this morning and I forget what topic they were on but there was a part where Brian said..... “it’s just like when the hawks bench was cheering for Larry Bird one game when he dropped 50 or 60 and they were rooting him on.....then afterwards the hawks bench was fined 50k each later on!” now ive had to go back and watch some old hawk games over many years just to familiarize myself with the hawks history but I’ve never heard this one! Rooting for Larry Bird? Our bench? Was Nique on the team? WTF????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dnice Posted November 5, 2018 Report Share Posted November 5, 2018 Nique was on the Lakers/Celtics 30 for 30, I believe and they brought up his career high, and mentioned something about fining them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dejay Posted November 7, 2018 Report Share Posted November 7, 2018 I remember it, it was a 'home' game in New Orleans (don't ask). Bird got into the zone in the midst of a blowout and yeah, he started hitting shots from just about everywhere... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
