Hamed Haddadi Isn’t Doing Iran Very Proud

You’re going to have to put up a triple double every day to present the name of Iran in a good, positive way.

Hes not really getting a chance. gasol REALLY isnt that good

Hamed Haddadi needs to understand the only way he can show his country in a good light is through the flames of bombs being dropped on them.

WTF @Mendel

any of you yanks ever been to iran?
didn’t think so.

Beautiful people, amazing history.
And this is from a guy with a North American accent, who was treated a million times better there than in my country or (certainly) yours.
Trust.

‘Y’all’ watch too much CNN/Foxnews.
Get out in the world, and see it, before spewing your blind hate.

And Mendel…your handle shows how far you’ve fallen from your faith and into the rhetoric of ‘our’ times. For shame, dude.

For shame.

Hamed wants to rep his people, and you hate on him for it? Make jokes about the slaughter of his people as a good thing?
State that the only way he can rep his people positively is to play at an inhuman (with apologies to Big O) clip?
What if he lives like a role model?
(he sure sounds like he aspires to be one to me)
Not enough, hey?

Not nearly, it would seem.

9/11 or 1 love?
think about it.
(you’re better than that!)

Mendel isn’t doing this post very proud

@ Mingus, go to IRAN and take Hamed with you. He is only here cause of Sterns affirmative action/ basketball globalization trip, and free the spot up for a brother, or if you really don’t need anybody give the spot to Shawn Kemp.
And also PHUCK YOU. Currently that country lives by the notion that the holocaust did not happen, and that israel should be wiped off the face of the earth, and is creating nuclear weapons to cause global mass destruction so they can get laid, and they fund and help in the killing of our American soldiers over seas. Any country that hates the USA and acknowledge the extermination or a race can suck it.
So take that bull crap spewing out of your mouth to the rubble of 9/11 and show that in a positive light and I hope they treat you well there you phucking pick head mutha phuka.

“I haven’t played enough”… yes, when he gets more playing time, all the posters he is featured on will be very popular back home.

Hey, sorry if I’m ignorant too, but I agree with Mendel! You know, what a wonderful country with GREAT people, who I’m sure would treat me, a Jewish American, as a freaking PRINCE if I went there.
Just a BEAUTIFUL country that funds killers to go out and blow themselves up to kill others.
Mingus, have YOU ever been to Iran?

@mendel

ummm yes. Thrice.
In the name of academic pursuits, no less.

and mendel: confusing the rhetoric of the state with the minds of millions of very human individuals is a dangerous way to live.
And (not quite) think.

go read some Singer, child. Calm down. and think for yourself.

And don’t stop yourself from hooping with the brown boy (nods to Funk)(humbly) just because of your rotten attitudes towards the Unchosen people. (in so many more ways than one, it is feared…)

and i do apologize for my early and antagonistic tone. I wanted to incite, but regret this juvenile strategy,
(fitting though it may be for THIS romper room…)

This thread makes me feel like I’m in a Shakesperean play with a modern-day twist, which saddens me.

Hey! Theres nothing wrong with trying to represent your country, especially Iran. That like you trying to put a small town on the map!

if were talking about race and crap. i wanna see more white boys playing. haha. i never see any of them out thier.

its more like a euro league.

out of like 400+ ballers, their are 40 something white americans. some teams have none i think its 6. pretty insane.

im stuck cheering for kirk, or steve blake.
ehh, what i side sign for white americans trying to make a living being a baller.
luckly for me im also half black.
haha.

saw dude in a hotel after they played the spurs. he is a large human being.

I would actually like to visit Iran. Seems like they got something interesting culture over their that the western world should look into. HOWEVER the anti-holocaust stuff is not cool.

Mendel is off the charts. Thank you Mendel. Everyone seemed to overlook the best part of it all and bashed him when he commented the serious issue of: He is only here cause of Sterns affirmative action/ basketball globalization trip, and free the spot up for a brother, or if you really don’t need anybody give the spot to Shawn Kemp

Hi Mendel, tackle an on-comming bus.

Is this slamonline or foxs news? (I thought basketball was supposed to take our minds off these things)

I would be treated well in Iran? Like that American who disappeared years ago and the Iranian government refuses to even comment on him?
Sh’yeah.
The moment they find out I’m Jewish I’ll be in a bunker somewhere in a mountain side.
What reality do some people live in. I’m sure Iran is a beautiful, vibrant culture… for people of the same skin tone. People are hatin’ on Mendel while Mendel’s hating on one of the most racist countries in the entire world. Interesting, huh!

if u wanna do good 4 Iran leave that sandbag cameljockey USA hatin abuse ur wife terrist breeding country ask 4 a big enough azz so they can suc it

I’ll try to reflect your kind of comments on Jewish people, and you can tell me if they are true: “G*ddamn moneyhungry rats, all they do is steal and cry about being persecuted for the last 5000 years. The only reason that Israel is still even a country is because of the rich Jewish Lobby in DC. They’ve turned their inferiority complex from being hated by every people for the past 5 millenia into a power trip, thinking that they can do anything they want in the middle east without answering for it, killing thousands of innocent people in the process. Every Jew should go back to where they came from, or disappear altogether.” Does that sound like a reasonable comment, Jukai? I didn’t think so.

Great, show your personal beliefs and hide it as “giving an example.” Thanks for all your thoughts, Hitler. You’d have to take me for a fool to think those ain’t yer own personal thoughts, they were wayyyy too thought out.
The fact that you’re comparing United States politics to Iran’s shows how truly mind bogglingly ignorant you truly are. I’m not getting my news from Fox, or from the New York Post. I listen to the BBC and NPR. I know Iran’s public policies (they were RECRUITING female suicide bombers, on government websites, to go up and kill Isralies) and I know they have the death penalty for homosexuality, I don’t know for a fact but it’s pretty much heavily evident that their government is TRAINING people to kill American soldiers in Iraq.
Why should I like Iran? Why should I give them a pass? For a murderous government and the people that support them?
Sorry, no go, Hitler. Thanks though.

So, Iranian politics are blood sucking and scary because of the US? I can deal with that.
I’m not holding beef with the Iranian people. I’m holding beef with Iran. Just like how everyone in the world hates America, they ain’t talking about the people of America, they’re talking about the president and the government of America. Iran seems to hate everyone they put in power, and all those college protests show Ahmadinejad isn’t anymore well liked than the rest.
Khamenei seemed to be an alright guy, but he clearly has little to no power anymore, considering how he said he’d release those unfairly trapped British soldiers and it took him weeks to get Ahmadinejad to release them.
Wow, I really can’t believe people are comparing America to Iran. That totally shocks me. I guess people really do take some freedoms for granted.

And to go back on subject, you can go back to hating Iran all you like, but why would you hate a basketball player who is a- about peace and trying to better US-Iran relations, and b- trying to make a name for himself.
