    Maybe someone else posted about it and I missed it, but that was pure chickensh!t when he swung to ball around into KT's jaw as hard as he could. He might as well have slugged him. KT was guarding him close, but not that close. Malone swung the ball around head high and caught him flush in the jaw.

    It should have been a flagrant foul. I believe it was fully intentional. I hope the Rocks send a clip to the league office. He should be fined.

    Also, does anyone know what happened when Malone and Mo got the double technical? I'll bet that chickensh!t Malone instigated it.

    i think we should do what mark cuban did with the referees and make a tape of all of malone's dirty fouls and bullsh!t playing and send it to the commish. the guy's been playing this way for years and it's ugly.

    Didn't Rudy T do this a few years ago? Don't think anything came from it.

    Actually, I'm pretty sure that Malone has been fined a couple of times in the past few years for dirty plays that didn't get caught by the refs in the games. Also, you don't see him driving to the basket, leading with his foot like he used to either.

    I'm glad you brought this up Moe, because I got totally BENT when I saw that! I don't know why Kenny didn't do anything. He should have labeled Malone right in his bald dome for that punk a$$ move. The refs seriously should have stepped in and done something about it because it was clearly intentional when you see it on replay.

    Don't you find it interesting that a referee called Malone's # 4 times, and then switched it to KT 4 times?
