So its ok to throw intentional elbows and play dirty???
off.
He did not throw the elbow, he had the ball in both hands and he pushed his elbows towards Collins to make some room because Collins was fouling him and was all over his back, like all game long. He got pissed about it and got a little over physical....so what???
No harm done...show me where anyone has ever called Mass a dirty player...show me, I dare you.
You said he should be thrown off the team like some stupid idiot, and that is total bull .
we need players on the Spurs to elbow the other team
We need Massenburng to elbow Nash or Allen in the playoffs

kiss my ass.
Collins wasn't even close to him, and he intentionally threw his right elbow out at Collins.
So protect the goon all you want, his BS tactics shoudl have him thrown off.
That is NOT Spurs basketball.
You've got to be ing kidding right? Right or wrong he did throw his elbow out at him and did hit him in his face knocking him down....
This isn't a church basketball league ... this is the NBA. It's either be tougher than your opponent or get beat up. You'd rather the Spurs were soft like they were in the mid-90's? You can call it diry or a cheap shot or say he should be suspended.
But it's a necessary evil in today's game. If a player who sees that replay has second thoughts about laying out Tony Parker or Manu Ginobili, Tony Massenburg did his job.
Sac up and wipe away the tears. This is a man's game.
He did not knock his ass down...the coach did not even about it, the league has taken no action at all....he grazed him...read Collins own quote. It is basketball...you get on someones back, you get the elbow...simple as that....stop the crying.

Spurs basketball, TPark????
You mean soft as Charmin Spurs' bball that we all had to listen to from every national scribe for 10 yrs??? Little Mermaid bball??? You mean the bball that caused every player on DRob's team to just sit there and watch Malone knock DRob to the floor without anyone even bothering to get up in Malone's grill and at least act like they gave a ???
Grow the up man...you are such a whiney pussy.
TPark's a pussy!
TPark's a pussy!
TPark's a pussy!
Grazing doesn't knock you flat on your ass, he said he was grazed because he didn't want to look like he got punked by Mass, which he did.
I'm not saying it's right or wrong, but he did hit him hard and intentionally...
It was an intentional hit to the mouth.
A lot of players swing there elbows when they get a rebound.
If you watch it again (I tivo'd it) Tony is facing the other way when he swngs the elbows. For all he knew, he was going to hit the guy in the chest or shoulder.
If Mass wanted to hurt the kid, he would of.
Tony is the muscle that all championship teams need.
We had it with Willis and now we have it with Mass.
totally agreed. It is nice to see our guys backing each other up on cheap shots or hard fouls. Even duncan will step up to a big man if they slam tony or Manu. That is why Kobe is seeing harder fouls this year, no shaq to protect him.
Last night made me want to buy a T Mass jersey. The Spurs need a little 'Rodney Harrison' on this team.
What I really found amusing was all 35 lbs of Vince Carter jumping up and down presumably trying to calm himself down. Memo to Vince; Massenburg would floss his teeth with your ribcage bi-atch....
