even in a thread that has nothing to do with Draymond people still find a way to bring him up lmaoooooooo. pathetic :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:


I really do feel so bad about de-railing an obviously well thought out & researched thread....accept my most humble apologies.

I thought your 'LOLs' were the high point of your retort.

I don't think so. He's risking his own health just as much, when he jumps to contest jumpers. If he lands on the shooters foot, he could just as easily injure himself. Even the TJ Ford thing didn't look malicious to me, just stupid and dangerous, but not with an intent to hurt his opponent.

Hopefully Gortat drops the hammer next game.

Two game 1's, two seasons apart, both eastern semi-final games, identical play: not letting the shooter land. Beal didn't even get a damn foul called in 2015.

If it happens once, yeah ok could just be a mistake. But twice? In the playoffs both times? Yeah nah you are trying to F dudes ankles up. League should look at this really.

Well, in fairness, we took Mike Pence off their hands. Taking back Mahinmi is the least they can do.

Al Horford, if translated to latin, actually means "The Gangster."

How can he land on the shooters foot if the shooter is above him?

El Clappo is one of the nicest guys in the league.

He's slow footed and sometimes has to guard PF's. Anyone who thinks there was malicious intent here has probably hated the Celtics or Horford for a long time.

The Celtics hate continues. Bring it hateerrrrssss!
One day Marcus Smart will be defensive player of the year, mark my words.

disgusting, should be suspended for 2 games. If not, this is a fake series win. already got 1 fake series win against rondoless bulls. and will most likely play against bogutless cavs. this rivals 2015 warriors path to the finals.

He was out for a few months, Calderon took over and he was never the same when he came back that season.

Yeah it definitely sucks. Could you imagine all the banners and trophies the Raptors would have had if Ford had stayed healthy? Crazy to think about it

You could have just shut up and not create any further entropy, instead you planned and delivered such a horrible answer. Chapeau

I feel like this doesn't happen if Rondo doesn't go down.




But, no on a more serious note he is a bit dirty. Pushed Sully into one of our guys trying to land getting a rebound as I recall last postseason.

Your sarcasm implies that it was ok for Horford to do what he did? Not sure why you feel the need to defend the play as a Celtics fan as this happened 10 years ago when he was a Hawk.

Fake tough guy, fake 1 seed. Now if the Celtics win it will forever be tarnished as "Rondo then Morris was injured" who's next, Richard Jefferson?

Losing one of your starters again because of the same (possibly dirty) play by THE. SAME. GUY. in the second round of the playoffs, two years apart... You'd be salty too, don't even try and say you wouldnt be.
