Q: When my roommate and I were watching the mini-scuffle between Roy Williams and Brandon Jacobs during the Giants-Cowboys game, it got us thinking: What two-person fight, or even two-on-two, would you pay insane amounts to the refs to just let them fight? We decided Nate Robinson vs. Maurice Jones-Drew for an interesting \"Intersport Best 5-foot-9-and-Under Battle\" or maybe a \"Battle of the Wallaces\" with Ben vs. Rasheed. We also decided the worst fight would be Manu Ginobili vs. Anderson Varejao. Your thoughts?
-- Jordan, Tempe, Ariz.

SG: You're right, a Nate Robinson-MoJo fight could rank right up there with Coralles-Castillo and Gatti-Ward. Ginobili-Varejao would be fun just to hear how Harold Lederman scored it after every round. (\"Oh-kay, Jim! I had that round 10-9 for Varejao, when Ginobili flopped out of the ring and landed in the 14th row, he lost the round even if Varejao never landed a punch.\") But for the main event, I'd pit Ricky Williams against a certain much-travelled NBA player who I'm not allowed to mention since he has never been suspended for marijuana use -- even though he's famous for turning at least two of his new teammates into the collective Chong to his Cheech every time he switches teams -- with the the winner receiving a lifetime's supply of medical marijuana. Ricky and Famous Potsmoker X would fight to the death. There's no question. It would be like the last 20 minutes of \"Bloodsport.\"

Who is he talking about? Ruben Patterson?

Just some names that popped into my mind - Sheed, Zach Randolph, Ricky D?

I don't think Ricky was a pothead, but he has switched teams a lot and played for the C's. That's the only reason I included him. Randolph has only switched once, so it's probably not him.

Sheed always seemed like a pothead to me.

Actually, I think it's probably Ricky D. The reason I say that is because he was on the C's and Simmons is a HUGE C's fan. Also, now that you brought it up I *think* I remember Simmons mentioning Ricky D and pot a few times a while back in his old articles...

Also, Sheed and Randolph haven't switched to enough different teams, as Simmons said...

I concur that Ricky is the best bet. I was between him and Ruben Patterson initially. The only reason I didn't put Ricky is because I couldn't think of any players I knew he'd contaminated (plus he never played for that jail blazers team).

That's so funny that you made this post, Pants, cuz I sent CW an email on Friday copying and pasting that question and asking him the exact same thing!

Ricky does seem like the most logical conclusion, since he played for the Celtics, is viewed as kind of a screwoff, and has played for a lot of different teams. I also remember Simmons once writing about his legendary partying. And he said this guy has never been caught smokin herbs, and neither has Ricky (Randolph & Sheed both have, I'm not sure if Patterson has?).

Yeah, I know he's been busted at least once. I think twice, but I am not sure.

It's gotta be Ricky Davis. Especially with the whole Celtics connection to Simmons. That's my guess.

If it is Ricky Dazzle, who are the \"2 teammates he turns into his collective Cheech & Chong\" when he was on the Wolves? Also, I'd like to hear from The Daddy on this...who do u think it is? After all, you are DaddyFatSax, so you should know...

Definitely our boy Justin Reed has gotta be one. Eddie's not a bad guess either...
