Kermit Washington KO-ing Rudy T and Jason Terry's Nut punch to Finley?

We've yet to see the fall-out from this one, but Rudy T's career was never the same after that (and KW was a public enemy), while the Terry nut-punch uprooted at least one Spur fan's family to Port Arthur.

How would you rank the 3, with 1 being the worst?

Don't forget Sprewell choking PJ Carlesimo, because he couldn't feed his children :cry

Washington was deliberate my opinion on ron artest was this

i just don't think ron artest is mentally capable to hit someone's head without looking at them. I mean mentally smart enough not mentally emotionally.

and i stick by that

Sprewell flourished with the Knicks (and to some extent, Minny) afterwards though. PJ won a couple titles as an assistant on SAS. No fall-out from that imho

One month into the 2005-06 season and without a contract, Sprewell's agent, Bob Gist, said his client would rather retire than play for the NBA minimum salary, telling Sports Illustrated, "Latrell doesn't need the money that badly. To go from being offered $7 million to taking $1 million, that would be a slap in the face."

Several days later, Gist said that Sprewell planned to wait until "teams get desperate" around the trade deadline in February, and then sign with a contending team (an eventuality that never materialized). Gist said that Sprewell would not be interested in signing for any team's $5 million mid-level exception, calling that amount "a level beneath which [Sprewell] would not stoop or kneel!"

That had nothing to do with the GSW fuck-up, though...he was offered a lucrative contract from Minny after the 2004 or 05 season and turned it down.

None compare to the Bowen step-under with Amare.

I give it a 1, look at Hardin neck the way it moves and then Artest moving his arm very unnatural when his running down the court and when his was walking back to the locker room. His arm or shoulder looked like it was hurting too

Truly vicious. Everyone knows when you're defending someone and they jump, you're supposed to run away so they're comfortable and have an unobstructed view of the basket.

Nothing will top Kermit's punch (hopefully). You also forgot McHale clotheslining. But that Kermit punch was a long time ago... the game has gotten a lot more strict nowadays. Hell, you can't even leave the bench during a brawl without getting ejected/suspended.

It's pretty damn high on the list. It's very possible to kill or permanently injure someone when you hit them anywhere behind the ear with that kind of force. Amazing Harden could stand after that, I've seen boxers get knocked completely out for long periods of time from much less vicious shots.

Sprewell is a real nigga for that. Carlesimo was barking up the wrong tree.

With obvious violent outbursts, there should be a 3 strikes policy (no pun intended). After the 3rd, you're done and your contract is voided, you're not allowed to play in the NBA.
