Jeremy Lin RaceThe off day of Final Four Weekend was dominated by the NBA.

SH Blog: Sheed ejected for a catchphrase

Leave a comment
Today at Sheridan Hoops, we’re mourning longtime college basketball coach Rick Majerus. For a look at that, check out today’s Tweet of the Day from former Marquette player Steve Novak, which also features some words on Majerus from Gene Wojciechowski and Chris Sheridan.
Now, here’s the latest NBA news:
  • Frank Isola of the New York Daily News starts his recap of today’s Knicks-Suns game with this awesome bit: “Latrell Sprewell once famously said after a particularly poor performance on a Sunday afternoon, “I’m not a morning person.” The game, it should be noted, began at noon and not 7 a.m. Maybe Rasheed Wallace isn’t a morning person either because the 38-year-old lasted only 85 seconds before being ejected in the Knicks 106-99 victory over the Phoenix Suns. Wallace received two technical fouls, one for arguing a foul call and the other for screaming his signature phrase “Ball Don’t Lie” when Goran Dragic missed the free throw. Wallace extended his NBA record of technical fouls to 317, including four with the Knicks. His Sunday was over late in the first quarter and just in time for the 1 p.m. NFL games.”
