Was Kawhi’s Game 1 Injury Result Of Dirty Play By Zaza? | First Take | May 15, 2017

That faggot wouldn't have reacted like that if he didn't intend to do that. They are down 20+pts and you freak out because of a foul. Sure.

The punishments are too harsh today for retaliation. Unless you are on a popular team ala Cavs, Warriors, you are going to suffer a harsh suspension for doing anything that is dirty. The league jumped the shark last year when they refused to suspend Draymond for kicking Adams in the nuts on multiple occasions and played the stupid "it was an accident" card much like they are doing with Kawhi's injury. After that any suspension they give or don't give out is very questionable. A major brawl like the '04 Pistons brawl will have to happen before they start giving out fair punishments again.

Kawhi has a greater responsibility than you could possibly fathom. You weep for Kawhi, and you curse the NBA. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know. That Kawhi's injury, while tragic, probably exposed scrubs. And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, exposes scrubs. You don't want the truth because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want the Kawhi in the game, you need Kawhi in the game. We use words like cuck, LDN, Fathead. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent offending someone. You use them as a punchline. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very website that the Spurs provide, and then questions the manner in which they provide it. I would rather you just said thank you, and went on your way, Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a newspaper, and learn to read. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you are entitled to.

Favorite movie speech of all time. I even have that memorized :lol

I can't stand Steven A. Smith. Just one sentence out of his mouth and I want to turn off the TV. Worthless POS

What's the movie speech from?

It's not like momentum made him take that extra step, he took that extra step on purpose. Was he just not thinking or just unaware that his foot was underneath Kawhi? Not a starting player on a very good NBA player. Their focus is top notch, so yes that was intentional. Especially Zaza whose going to use every trick in the book to get GSW a ring with less talent.

It was planned. He has no intention of blocking the shot but he moves towards Kawhi twice to make sure he is under him when he lands and then reacts by dancing away from the Spurs bench.
Zaza is a POS
But I believe Kawhi will return.

Of course he will return. For good or bad he'll play on Saturday's game.
