Didn't realize Griffin was so alligator-arm-y. His wingspan is virtually the same as Wade's.

Was at the Celtics game. I swear not even two minutes before that went down I told the guy next to me that there was gonna be a fight in this game. I was in the nosebleeds on the other side of the court though so all I saw was a big pile.

After the game I was gonna get a green-on-green Garnett jersey, until I found out they cost 90 ****ING DOLLARS. No thanks.

Is that one of those "Christmas Day" jerseys that are all one color?

I have NO idea what that means.

You mean he has short or long arms?

Blake Griffin.

Dee-Zy · 11-29-2012, 01:19 PM

aaaaaaaah, I thought that you were saying his arms look like an alligator (not their arms)...

**Jace** · 11-29-2012, 01:28 PM

Should I have gone with T-Rex arms?

**Floods** · 11-29-2012, 02:49 PM

Rondo suspended 2 games, KG and Gerald Wallace fined.

**Bogg** · 11-29-2012, 02:53 PM

About right, that's along the lines of what I figured would happen. As an afterthought, can we all stop pretending that shoving a much bigger player after a hard foul is the worst thing that's ever happened on a basketball court?

**Jace** · 11-29-2012, 03:07 PM

Who said it was? The question is was it anywhere near an appropriate response? Humphries accidentally tapped Garnett in the face, and Rondo chose an action that would obviously incite a mini-riot. After he and Rivers tried to write off Rajon's clothesline throwdown on Wade on opening night as just a regular foul, I don't understand how what Humphries did was an offense worthy of such a retaliation. Oh, I do understand. He's a hypocritical, petulant bitch.

NOTE TO EVERYONE: I'm aware Wade can be a bitch at times, too. Thanks in advance. Nowhere near Rondo-levels, though.

A) It was a hard foul. Humphries didn't "accidentally" knock Garnett down, he put his forearm on Garnett's chest and followed through after Garnett released. It wasn't anything to start a fight over, but Humphries knew what he was doing.

B)Wade's much more dangerous than Rondo's ever been. Between his blatant takedown that dislocated Rondo's elbow, breaking Kobe's nose in the all-star game, and the hockey check on a sprinting Pacers player (Collison?), Wade's been much worse than Rondo when it comes the things that were uncalled for, so don't open that can of worms.
