I happen to be a nonsmoker, and it's obvious that Benson flagarantly and maliciously bowed Jabbar. You just have a problem with a black player leveling out a white player in retaliation. You're the racist, not Jabbar.

[bubbabubbabooba]

Benson made the big mistake of elbowing a person in the gut who had worked out with Bruce Lee.........

maurice Lucas was one of the dirtiest players brought over from the ABA..a great player yes...but dirty as hell

[edscottable]

@vivafuzzy he was very handsome. his demeanor seems queer however. i wonder is that why he and his wife aren't together now. because otherwise he seems to be a very caring, and gentle person.

Jabbar destroyed Benson, but I do think that was a sucker punch.

Kermit Washington's punch was not a sucker punch. Tomjonavich got his hands up so he saw it coming.

This was a GREAT piece on Kermit Washington. I didn't know anything about him, except for his infamous punch on Rudy T.

I feel bad for him. He was wrong, but shit man, a lot of NBA players have thrown punches and never got that kind of backlash

kareem abdul jabbar was awesome for that. That was a sick punch!

@lwmson Kent Benson's coach at Indiana University was Bob Knight.

@elwin38 Did Cowens smoke Weed? The guys a little bit unusual and always seemed kinda a bit spacey haha. I mean its obvious Bill Walton and Kareems use of Cannabis is as legendary as their careers hahaha, but I been watching some Celtics interviews with Cowens and I can't help but think a guy who once slept on a pahk bench ova in the Commons and quit basketball to work as a taxi driver cuz he felt burnout, probably smoked a joint or two back then also he just talks soo slowly hahaha
