[Video] Ryan Hollins kicks Jeremy Lin (flagrant foul)

That kick was intentional.

 

you think the asian theme might have had something to do with Chinese New Year and LA having a huge asian population and not Lin???

HA! Clutchfans has infiltrated Business Insider.

 

that's brutal. the league has to do something with that. lin was beaten by floppers.

 

Is there a way to send these clips to NBA for review?

They have issued warnings to Asik and PPat for flopping, so I assume there is a procedure in place to check these things even after the game.

 

How do you know Hollins was trying to kick the ball?

Is he a soccer player?

The ball was at least two feet away from his toes, when his right leg was fully stretched out. Before the kick, He had already started to brake with his left foot, so it would be natural for him not to kick his right foot out that much if he had no intention to kick some thing, Lin or the ball.

 

I hope our front office would act like a man too and stand up for its players.

 

Has the Clippers been winning because they do these dirty things in every game?

 

he was trying to kick the ball away so Lin wouldnt get possession.

still a dick move and hollins is the classic nba goon but that's why he did it.

 

disappointed nobody came to Lin's defense bucked up to hollins.

really disappointed.

i bet if royce was there he would have gone full r****d strength on that goon hollins.

 

Lin needs to stand up for himself, no one on the team is going to do it

 

that would be nice but that's not him. That's why you have teammates. Somebody should have come to Lin's defense and bucked up to Hollins.

Marcus Morris did when the warriors fouled Beverly in that record 3 game.

I dunno maybe certain players just werent on the court that time but that was unacceptable.

Somebody should have bucked up to Hollins plain and simple.

 

Anyone email this to the league??

 

Lin should/could have acted differently, instead of just standing up and walking away without even a millisecond of eye contact.

The kick was very very wrong and dangerous to say the least. I tend to judge action by action itself and the results, instead of second-guessing others' motives. However, I am not comfortable that Rockets fans are convinced it was not intentional. We simply don't know.

Lin should have stood up and made a case to refs, and McHale should have done the same thing. Obviously, Lin was roughed up by the Clippers in the paint, and THAT was intentional, whether it was done to slow him down or other purpose is another story. But I believe had Lin and the coach made it a bigger complaint about that kick, at least Refs would have called more fouls on those pushes by the clippers during Lin's layups, and maybe wouldn't have called the next 2 ticky tacky fouls on Lin.

Houston Rockets have taken too many abuse/intentional hard fouls since Yao Ming. Back in Dreams' era, it wouldn't have happened without consequences.

Relying on your teammates is good, but one has to stand up for himself. Comparing to JVG, I could only say that McHale is too laid back in such situations.

 

It's intentional watch his support leg and heel lift off to finish the luck. If he was just going for the ball he wouldnt have driven through his planted foot to leverage more power into the striking leg and body. Also review how he uses his left hand to push/aid Lin's downward momentum.

 

that's because dream's team consisted of bad ass tough grown men who dont take ***** from no one like otis, vernon, mario elie, heck even chucky brown got salty from time to time.

this team is still too young but i like marcus morris swag during the beverly incident.

 

Holy ****, you're right. Lin's had a target on his back all season. This is way out of control.

 

coze LOFs on this board, now players on every team turn into LOHs. :grin::grin::grin:

 

I doubt Lin even knew he was kicked. Heck technically he wasn't kicked - Hollins looked like he only made contact with the ball. And then he went to go help him.

I don't think this was as bad as it looked I have to say.

 

I thought Parsons was Lin's BFF?
