    He should get suspended. If a fan did that he'd get arrested.

    So, fans can't throw drinks at players... because of "malice in the palace"... but players can throw drinks at fans as long as they do it in a way we find amusing...?

    Saw it live and didn't think it was intentional and voted no.

    But looking at it again it looks intentional actually.

    This was hilarious btw.

    I see the league faking us with a revenge of la against dwight finals, but the spurs will beat us and then the clippers. The nba does not want the clippers brand in the finals with the stigma associated with the clippers. It is just asking for low ratings.

    They want a miami vs san antonio round 2. The ratings were crazy high for last year. The clipps will beat the warrriors in 7 games, maybe 6. Then they will beat the thunder only to get owned by the spurs. Then miami three peats.

    About as obvious as the Jason Kidd spill earlier in the season.

    You can clearly see the fan say "hit me"

    If Blake was LOOKING DIRECTLY at the fan when he tossed his drink, yeah, that should be a suspension. But he got away with it because his head was turned.

    he clearly tilts the cup intentionally to spill the contents before bring his hand back to a resting position. and notice how his left hand (without the cup) doesn't move at all the entire time. there's no doubt this was intentional

    You know the whole world is getting soft when people are talking about tossing water on a guy like it's a terrorist act.

    He should get suspended for that. You do that to a police officer, you would be in hand cuffs on the ground.

    I think the league just prematurely suspended him today by giving him 4 touch fouls and having him ride the pine for most of the game. EVEN STEVEN

    It would be really interesting what would've happened if the fan retaliated violently. Obviously the fan would've been kicked out and probably arrested, but Griffin clearly instigated the event.

    The fan was probably a dooshbag and deserved it. Usually opposing fans who sit in the front row are dooshbags. He did get the last laugh tho.
