Why?
It's the playoffs. I doubt AJ was telling his players to crouch-grab so much as he was commenting on the League inconsistancy in this area. An intentional grab and twist gets a fine, but an intentional punch gets a suspension?
That's just stupid since the intent and not the act should be the aspect being punished.
That's like saying intentionally stabbing someone is fine, just don't intentionally shoot someone. If both are meant as intentional, physical acts of violence, then both should treated the same.
Yes, I imagine it's tough to be a Spurs fan right now. Avery, one of your all-time most beloved players is the coach of the team that's pretty well controlled this series so far. He's the coach of the year for a team owned by loudmouth pissant Mark Cuban. He's now one of the faces of the enemy.
But he's still AJ.
He's still the PG that worked his ass of as a Spur to make not just himself, but his entire team better. He's still the Little General and the badmouthing of him is pathetic.
Just like the Mavs fans booing Finley, a guy who helped to save their franchise.
NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO
Think! We are losing respect for AJ as he is now condoning grabbing other players balls. Cuban is insulting our city and women and generally being his asswipe self.. only worse.
They are making their organization look pathetic.

I agree 100%.

I'm sure you had to be there. I'm quite certain he was taking a slap at the League's inconsistant stance on two crotch related acts these playoffs.
I'm sure the comment was mostly tongue in cheek in attempt to poke humor at the inference that an intentional mangling of balls is OK, but an intentional swing at balls is inexcusable.
He's using sarcasm to say from now on, his players will avoid suspension by merely intentionally mangling someone's balls.
It's not to be taking seriously.
I think he has every right to be upset at the League's inconsistancy in the matter. By the letter of the law, he has no real gripe, so he took what the League gave him earlier these playoffs when it refused to suspend a player for INTENTIONALLY MANGLING another players balls.
I couldn't believe it then, that Evans got off (hehehe)...
He's not condoning anything, so much as pointing out the absurdity at the two differing rulings.
You guys are making a mountain out of a molehill and in doing so, are berating one of your own.
That's pretty sad.
