This. Was a dumb play by Dwight at this point but can't let Bogut get under his skin like that. I can't lie though, it was satisfying for the moment seeing Bogut hit upside the head.
You mean the same media organization that has pushed the Warriors extremely hard and the narrative of Curry? The same organization that wants sensational headlines to make money? Do you view ESPN and their stable of blowhards as objective? It is a red herring, what happened between Howard and Bogut is very very very different than what happened between Rudy T and Kermit. It is like getting in a fender bender and comparing it to Princess Di's car wreck.
the rule is a clenched fist, dwight's fist wasn't clenched, really all he did was push him in the face Chandler swung at the back of Dwight's head with a clenched fist and the nba ruled it was nothing.
You are comparing a clear out arm with a vicious and direct punch to the face. That's ridiculous DD. I just can't believe that kind of hyperbole would come from you. I mean, what the heck is up with that?
It would be a flagrant 2 if Dwight hit a person in the face. However, Dwight did not hit a person, he hit Andrew Bogut, who does not deserve to be treated like a person.
Well DeAndre Jordan ran at Dwight and threw a closed fist punch that hit him in the back of the shoulder...& the NBA did nothing. Let's see if they are consistent...

Wow, so there is an international conspiracy involving the mainstream media and a multinational corporation in the NBA all colluding to get Golden State in the Finals? The Warriors themselves have nothing to do with it? Lol, I sure hope they don't drug test at your job, because you would fail. And you have nerve to question someone else and ask them if they're being serious...unbelievable.
I would tell the ref a couple of times, then tell him if he doesn't stop it you will....then give Bogut the elbow. Saw a pf from Pitt play in the pre NBDL days on a team in Montana: Sam Clancy. He broke a guys face once. When asked after the game what happened, he said "he pushed me, so I pushed him back. He said something, so I said something back. Then he bowed me, so I decked him." (TheresTheDagger, you know what I'm talkin' about!)
if it's changed i would be deeply concerned for this league - would be a joke. he retaliated after being borderline raped.
Can someone compile a video of all flagrant and techs he's had this postseason? The majority of them have been total BS. If he misses Game 5 because of it it just shows the NBA is rigged.
