Metta World Peace elbow to Harden

[MastaStrategist]

That would be a terrible attitude. It's a good thing MWP didn't do that

Yes, my mistake. Clearly, Harden was completely in the wrong for interfering with the completely innocent motion of St. Ron's elbow.

Never said that. He just clearly didn't elbow him in the temple, which is what you said. Nor did he intend to elbow him in the back of the head.

I just watched the replay again..... Oooo.. My celebration of the dunk really was too much... Didn't even see James ..... Omg... Looks bad

Hope James Hardin is ok... I remember when I hit by Marc Gasol the same way.. I was spitting up blood and a headache during the game...

Guys, MWP was not thinking about hurting Harden when he threw that elbow. In fact, he was not thinking at all.

And that's exactly the problem.

He cannot think when he is pumped up or angry. His thought process completely shuts off. And that's why he is dangerous.

I don't believe that he is a thug or anything. But he has shown times and times in his career that he probably is not sane.

bingo...remember the look in his eyes after the main events of the brawl, when he was being held back by the Indy staff? He looked like the scariest person I had ever seen. The sad fact is, he is a ticking timebomb, it doesn't matter if years go by between serious incidents. All it takes is one elbow or punch to potentially injure a guy for good.

There's plenty of guys that don't think in the heat of the moment. You don't ban someone for life for it though. (Not saying you said that, but a lot of wannabe analysts on the web are)

Let me ask you a question then.

Do you think that Metta World Peace is sane?

Because I seriously doubt that.

I'm glad it happen to Harden and no one else.Let's see Harden talk his **** now

[wizardg]

Bye bye Ron Ron....Looj what he did to Barea!ittlest guy on rthe court. What diod ron do when Big Ben stepped to him.. He walked away and laid on the scores table. Ron isnt crazy ... she's a bitch.

He sucker elbowed Harden.... bitch move. That was worse than Kermit Washington. Rudy T came running behind Kermit who reacted turned and swung .... Arstet purposely hit a defenseless man.

There's plenty of guys that don't think in the heat of the moment.

And yet, for 99.9% of those guys, their heat-of-the-moment reactions don't include intentionally knocking an opposing player out with a concussion or lunging into the stands to beat up a fan.

Sane compared to the rest of the NBA players? No. Sane compared to a legitimate crazy person, in an asylum or out. Yes

Ron Artest is an idiot. With his history and the fact Harden has a concussion, he'll get a long suspension for this.

[BBgun]

I'm not biased towards Kobe at all, i wanted the Lakers to amnesty him and have been saying it on this board for months.

My point is, yeah it was an overreaction from Artest but its not the end of the world. So many fake tough guys in the league and its nice to see one get put away once in a while

So Harden trash talking Kobe warrants him getting put in his place by way of a viscious elbow to the head?

[0HeadAche0]

So many fake tough guys in the league and its nice to see one get put away once in a while

So you'd be perfectly fine with someone lunging at Bynum's knee with intent to injure, for example? After all, it's apparently "nice to see fake tough guys get put away once in a while" in your world.

i wouldnt be delighted but yeah if someone had beef with Bynum then yeah they can punch him if they want.

He needs to come clean or I think Stern is going to come down even harder on him. It's obvious he meant to elbow him. I don't think he meant to hit him in the head though. When harden slid under his arm it caused his elbow to go up toward the head. denying he was trying to elbow the guy is a joke.

You're right and Ron is in that 99.9% who don't intentionally knock out an opposing player with a concussion. He's a person that will elbow you to get you off of him however. Especially when you make the Hulk angry

judging by the amount of typos, im guessing either drunk or posting from phone.

Seriously. I stopped at the word "Looj"

There was clearly an intent to injure there. If you don't see that, you're in denial. Artest has total anger problems that he has proven unable to rein in over and over again.

I don't think that he should be locked in an asylum but I also don't think that he should be put in a competitive environment any more.

He isn't a mildly crazy but harmless person. He is dangerous. Both to himself and the rest of the players.

An intent to injure (give him a concussion)? You sound like your Clippers commentators now. Not a good thing.
