Looks like being a fat thug finally caught up with him. It doesn't matter that the NBA is soft and you think that's stupid (which it is), he is paid millions of dollars to play within the confines of the rules and he single-handedly just lost his team this series already.

Or maybe George's transgressions did not deviate from the language in the NBA rulebook, whereas punching a mother****er outright clearly does.....???

But by all means, continue to contribute to your conspiracist narrative.

GOAT rookie intimidater. He gets in so many hidden elbows and other things to get under players skin without being picked up. Then the players retaliate and get technical and suspensions :bowdown:

He is the epitome of being better then his stats suggest. I mean the value of getting ZBO suspended for game 7 is at least a double double in game :cheers:

They have to start Johnson and Allen. Just not enough scoring unless they tell Miller to just jack 3's everytime he touches and hope for the best.

05-02-2014, 06:27 PM
Obviously Adams just walked away when Z-Bo went after him after the punch was thrown. He probably didn't notice it.

Also, if you look closely at the video, there was enough force in the punch to make Adams move in a slightly different direction compared to where he intended to run. This suggests that Z-Bo exercised his punch with extreme force.

I was watching the game with friends, and 4 of us immediately said "It might be over for Z-Bo" when his swing connected with Adam's head region.

Blair got suspended for inadvertently kicking Splitter in the face, no way Z-Bo doesn't get suspended for inexplicably punching Adams. Sucks because it takes away the high level of anticipation from the game. Went from a toss up to, yeah so OKC should win convincingly if Z-Bo is gone and Conley hobbled.

But hey. Stranger things have happened. OKC might take Gasol and Miller lightly and get punked in their own house.

It was ridiculous he only got a personal in game. Zbo lost his cool when a rookie blocked him a couple of times and its the leagues fault? :facepalm

They didn't even call it a technical on the floor so maybe that influenced the decision to suspend?

And while I agree the punch/shove wasn't strong enough to warrant a suspension the NBA looks at intent and action. They have to draw the line somewhere. The same thing happened to DeJuan Blair who lightly kicked a guy in the head.

Adams is also strong as **** so who knows how strong the punch was. Didn't look that hard, but you can't just let someone throw a punch at an opponents jaw.

This might actually help Memphis too since Randolph is only shooting 40% this series and just 60% from the FT line. We'll see.

Point stands, Adams = THE GOAT.

you are proving my point. Rules are not rules. The rules only apply when they benefit the NBA and their business. Rules change when it affects the NBA. NBA needed more superstars so they changed the rules for certains players like Durant, Harden,etc.
If Durant did the same thing as Zbo, he wouldnt get suspended. Rules would have changed for him. This is how it works.

I didn't bring it up! Someone else did.

And that was 100% intentional, I don't care what he could "make an argument" of.Perhaps he's saying that, visually, if we knew nothing about either player and their respective beefs with one another, that play could pass for looking somewhat unintentional. As fans who know better, we can say, "Oh no way! He meant to intentionally make it look unintentional!" But I think it's a little tougher for the league to justify taking that leap of faith in this case.

On the flip side, yeah, as I am sure you'd agree, it'd be a bit tougher to defend a punch that was no part of any other bodily movement. Though I suppose we could argue Randolph's running stride just got away from him a little?

you are proving my point. Rules are not rules. The rules only apply when they benefit the NBA and their business. Rules change when it affects the NBA. NBA needed more superstars so they changed the rules for certains players like Durant, Harden,etc.
If Durant did the same thing as Zbo, he wouldnt get suspended. Rules would have changed for him. This is how it works.
Why are you crying? You're not a Grizzlies fan. You're a bran stan trying so hard to see Durant fail.

All of a sudden, punching someone deserves no repercussions.

Grizzlies killed their chances by getting BLOWN OUT on their homecourt. That was their chance to win the series.

It makes sense but it really didn't have to happen. There would have been no outrage and no one would have ever questioned it.

While the suspension is complete bs the Grizzlies as long as they have Gasol can still win, they got Johnson, Lueuer and Davis who all bring different things to the table and all three are better defenders than Z-Bo.

Memphis has shown all year they can win with bs, they got less free throws than just about anyone during the regular season while playing in the paint and they got guy's who always seem to step up (aside from when Gasol goes down).

LeBron could honestly take notes from Adams. Rather than rolling around like a bitch after contact he could just get up and act like he wasn't even hit and not let it phase him.

After Adams completely ignored that punch last night Randolph was pissed and tried to immediately score on Adams the next possession and got his shit blocked by Adams. It was like the pissed off, outmatched child trying to make a statement vs his bigger brother only to get shutdown again.

The rule says you can't escape the vicinity, not you can't cross the line separating court from bench.

That leaves the infraction up to interpretation, and PG and Butler were certainly within the vicinity of the bench. They literally took two steps, they should be suspended for that? :oldlol:

Whereas the rule book EXPLICITLY states that striking a player is culpable of suspension. No wiggle room, no interpretation, just fine print.

All this thread is doing is showcasing the idiots and stans that inhabit this forum. The NBA is rigged for OKC because the league suspended a player who clearly violated NBA rules, a rule with the strictest application of penalties at that :oldlol:

I love how people talk about ZBo having contact with Adams face warrants a suspension, but when McRoberts elbows a certain NBA player in the neck/face region...we got a completely different response.

And could you imagine what these Kobe stans aka Durant stans would be saying if this were Lebron?

They think because Westbrook was out last year that the Heat deserves an asterisk. But when KD is in a game 7 first round series and the highest scoring player on the other team gets suspended, its has no impact on KD. In fact, according to some, it means Lebron is getting bailed out :roll: :roll:

damn what an excellent thread. didn't the nba only upgrade mcrob's to a flagrant 1? lmaoo. not even a 2 or a suspension.
It's shouldn't be a flagrant at all.
Just a good foul that landed in a bad spot in the end.

Did you see the play? Did you ever think the NBA wasn't going to suspend him after he not only threw, but landed, a punch?

I was being sarcastic.. but yes, I'm with JVG. These type of altercations call for a fine. Maybe an ejection too.. Suspending him though? A bit drastic, imo

I think had he been elected, he may not have been suspended. Then, I would be pissed as an NBA fan. But, the refs let him remain in the game.

As long as he doesn't develop a reputation w/ the refs where they call weak bullshit on him and guys start flopping near him to get him in foul trouble then I'm good with it.

Thats my biggest concern right now though.

JVG owning the league's decision...

"Suspending a player for a game 7 should be one of the last resorts. That was a push, not a punch. But to take what was must see tv, to it being inevitable that OKC advances is a shame. And thats the problem when you just follow presedence. You cant label everything. That was NOT a punch... They made the logical decision with Paul George, they didnt with Randolph. George wasnt escalating anything, and rightfully not suspended."

With or without they weren't winning anyway, Brooks finally made a move with Butler to the starting lineup and OKC looked MUCH better offensively. Brooks could have ended this series long ago if he weren't so slow in the head.
