Total BS. Brown should be ejected. Remember when Ariza threw an elbow that *didn't* connect against the Raptors when he was on the Rockets and got ejected?
Brown should get a one-game suspension for that crap. Love that Landry and Ariza are playing well. Go Hornets! Down with Big Chief Triangle!
Luckily it's Shannon Brown. There's actually a chance he'll be suspended for the next game. If it were Kobe, the NBA would say they were "taking a close look at it" and come up with some completely bogus excuse to call it a "basketball move."
Bingo. Despite the TNT crew trying to sell this phantom injury for the full three hour broadcast, I hope you all were smart enough to realize the charade. It's sickening how phony this douchebag is.
i agree with kenny. if the hornets play like this in game 6, they will win and we will have game 7. and paul has to play 45+ minutes. it's do or die from now on. forget monitoring his minutes.
Come on man, seriously? SERIOUSLY???? Quit hating already. Whether or not he really is injured, those two dunks were absolutely SICK
They were good dunks (I wouldn't say "absolutely sick" as that would really downplay the majority of highlight dunks in the NBA). That is not the point. Kobe and the media tried again to make him appear like a HERO by playing through a badly sprained ankle (which was obviously not the case since he didn't even bother to diagnose it). Compare this to Aaron Gray, who had what appeared to be a worse injury in a prior game and was given nary a mention; he just showed up to play the next game. This kind of fabrication of situations that don't exist is insulting to intelligent fans of the game and just more fodder for the NBA being about entertainment over sport.
