Sounds like basic trash talk between players on opposing teams, to me.

Yep.

I still don't think a white player talking to a reporter would get away with calling Shaq "Shaq-a-laq-a-ding-dong", though.

That's funny and it's a great comeback for Ming: "Oh yeah? Well, I heard that Shaq-a "lack-a-ding-dong." You ought to email it to Ming's publicity guy.

Nowdays I can not tell the difference between basketball and hockey,except hockey players seem to have fewer teeth (I see that changing). Gave up Hockey and Basketball and now just read books and play my guitar. Miss the old days-rave on street thugs I beleive I will take a vacation.
