I have to disagree, basketball is easily my favorit sport to watch. Yes Carmelo is a pussy, but I could have told you that after the NCAA champoinship game. I dont see how you can complian about the nba being unprofessional, when hockey is centered around the very idea of fights. The new "great" american "sport", nascar is also centered around violence. I guess we havent really progessed much from the gladiator days.
Oh man don't get me started on Nascar.
And I watched the video a few more times and I've actually changed my opinion a bit. He sucker punched Collins sure, but if you look closely you can see Anthony confronted him a first time and exchanged words with him. Then Collins jawed off back at him, and it obviously upset Anthony. So he got caught up in the heat of the moment and bitch slapped that foo. I don't agree with it, but I've done stupid shit b/c I was fired up too. Plus I watched a few interviews after the game and he seemed pretty distraught about the whole thing. Maybe this will make for a good rivalry game when they meet next year. Remember the Heat/Knicks rivalry?
Now my question is whether or not Isaiah Thomas was the cause of the flagrant foul to begin with. I’m a huge George Karl fan, and seeing him go off on a tangent in that interview made me think twice about the coaching. If that’s the case than Isaiah Thomas can suck a fart out of my butt.
