[Video] Metta World Peace slap/elbow to Jeremy Lin's face -- inadvertent?

Maybe the Lakers are just not being #honest and #transparent with Mr WorldPeace,perhaps they need to introduce a new #protocol .. #wordapp

 

I see what you did there...

 

sub-consciously and consciously intentional; but only to regret a split second later

 

I say it's intentional, but he didn't know who it was. When he saw it was Lin, he showed a tiny bit of regret...

MWP missed 1 of his 2 FT's, and Lin nailed his. So no love lost on that play.

**If that's world peace, who needs world war?**

 

Probably thought it was Harden, whom he seems to dislike.

 

MWP is a LOF. Hard to say if it was intentional towards Lin. I wonder if it was any other Rocket, if he would be holding Lin's arm?

 

On purpose.Not sure if he regrets it tho.I once did a foul on another player and done a similar thing - except that it wasnt that serious and i faked an "accidental" face.

If he was faking he has way better acting skills

 

It was intentional but no harm done. A simple technical foul was the right call. Still wish our players weren't too nice. We need at least one or two tough guys on the court.

 

I agree.

JR Smith is in town next week. I'm worried for Lin.

 

*Duplicated post - sorry*

 

By the way, MWP is playing incredibly well right now. Providing he keeps his issues in check he makes the Lakers even scarier.

 

It was clearly intentional. There's no way Jeremy grabbed him with enough force to rotate Meta enough for that arm to whiplash like that.

And I think he actually regretted it when he realized it was Lin.

MWP has made clear multiple times that he's a fan of Jeremy Lin, so I'm guessing he felt like a real jerk afterwards, especially since his wife and kids are supposedly Lin fans as well.

 

He was advertently trying to appear inadvertent.

He does that all the time!!!

 

Yea, you know what he did to Bayless?

 

Thats World Peace for you.

 

I thought that it was accidental, but after looking at it again, that was intentional.

 

MWP should have knocked the fawk out ..... fawk Lin

 

Obviously Metta is racist. He would never throw an elbow at a black player.

 

This is seriously not funny

 

I made a thread to start hating Artest because this is how he plays. If someone fouls Artest hard, he does this. If Artest fouls hard, or does ridiculous things he plays innocent. Watch him go Ocho Cinco later on us, changed back his name to Artest.
