Zaza Pachulia's dirty play last year

There is a difference between heart and dirty

I will always take guys like Pat Bev, Olynyk, Stevan Adams, etc. They play hard, rough, but fair. They try to out compete opponents, they don't try to knock them out of games.

Zaza, Green, Bruce Bowen, Reggie Evans, etc intentionally try to injure opponents, thats just being a shitty competitor and a garbage human.

 

Uh....what?

 

Zaza is dirty

 

I agreed with RW initially, but after watching it a number of times. McCaw's foot actually gets hooked behind Zaza's knee, and then RW falls on McCaw's leg forcing his leg forward and pulling Zaza's knee forward. Have someone kick you in the back of the knee and you'll go down too.

Edit: By McCaw, I mean Young. My bad.

Here's a picture showing why Zaza fell on Westbrook. I would still love for someone to take out Zaza (or any of the Warrior's stars) simply as payback for all the dirty crap Zaza has pulled in the past. This just wasn't one of those times though.

 

Meh.

Did you see the way Pachulia fell on Westbrooks leg? It was a slow fall and he definitely could have caught himself with his arms...but he didn't. In fact, he went out of his way to make sure he fell with his body full force on Westbrook's knee. Super dangerous.

Look, maybe if this guy didn't have a long history of this sort of thing, MAYBE I could let it go. But he does have that history, and its dangerous. There is too much money wrapped up in players like Kawhi Leonard and Russell Westbrook to let a goon like Pachulia ruin it.

Time for the NBA to crack down on him. HARD. If not, they risk a player doing it themselves on the court, and I wouldn't blame em.

 

Yeah that put a stain on the playoffs last year.

If he did that back in the 80s players would deck him

 

Zaza is from Georgia.

Atlanta is all about thug life.

 

I agree. And he has a bad bad history.

 

Zaza is a piece of **** & I hope something bad happens to him.

(Durvasa can go start another thread in the feedback section about how someone wanted something bad to happen to someone else!)

 

Just a section

 

I call it getting ZaZa’D

 

The Warriors are getting in Championship form according to Kerr and have not got there yet. The Warriors will play physical ball and as much as the refs will let them get away with, Teams playing them will need to match their physical play and try to play through the BS.

 

They're so much like the Klein boy soccer team in the 80's it's sickening. Same team colors and same level of championship chippy excellence. They took out my Elsik Rams varsity team 4yrs in a row in the 5A playoffs, I was in goal for the 1st two matches, 0-3 and 1-2 defeats. Bastardos..

 

Pachulia is a bigger danger to the health and career-longevity of NBA players than back-to-back games.

 

Zaza is from the Caucasian Georgia. Never trust a dirty Caucasian.

 

So why doesn’t the NBA do anything about this? Is it impossible to prove it was malicious?

 

Proving intent is nothing easy.

 

if this trash isn't suspended then the players need to call out silver for protecting his golden boys

 

Guilty
