03.10.09 SOURCE: ZO MOURNING GOT IN FIGHT ON TV SHOW
Alonzo Mourning was one of the greatest players in NBA history. His jersey has been retired by the Heat; his 33 is the only number that hangs in those rafters. But now, he’s just like any other grumpy old guy shooting hoops at the Y. Except that he might be getting shown up on national television.
Former NBA players Ron Harper, Eddie Jones, Antoine Walker, Robert Horry and Alonzo Mourning were in Los Angeles over the weekend to shoot an upcoming episode of Pros vs. Joes. A source tells me Mourning got in a physical altercation with one of the “Joes” while filming. Good to hear Zo still has that fire.
Of course, “physical altercation” could mean anything. I was riding the bus in Japan once and my hand got into a “physical altercation” with the “uniform” of an underaged bus-riding “patron.” But fortunately “we” were able to “sort out our differences” before I “blew a wad in my pants.” There’s no substitute for traveling to make one appreciate other cultures.

“Woke up on the wrong side of the bed this Mourning”
Looks like I aint making it either, WDYA.
“Alonzo Mourning was one of the greatest players in NBA history.”
…You should probably stick to Football big guy. Unless this is sarcasm. In which case, you win this round Ufford.
Thanks OJ. I was about to say the exact same thing.
if the joe did his homework he would have given him a kidney shot…..but which side??
Oh, you all think that this is easy for Zo. You don’t know what kind of pressure there is to perform on Spike TV. Not everyone is as talented as Guy LaDouche.
No problem Sex Cannon. I always get my man…or woman.
He’s the only Heat player to have his number in the rafters. The team has also retired Michael Jordan’s and Dan Marino’s numbers. No lie.
Antoine Walker is a part of this show? What’s he competing in, eating a plate of cheeseburgers and seeing how many three-pointers you can miss in five minutes?
“He’s the only Heat player to have his number in the rafters.”
I dont think it counts if he is wearing his old jersey to his new job as a light technician.
