Delly is not a dirty player 

Post#1 » by xJumpManx » Mon May 25, 2015 4:10 am

He gets pulled down by Horford and trips over an Atlanta player laying on the ground. He dives for a loose ball when korver tries to reverse direction at same time they collide and Korver gets hurt. You can say it was cheap that he leg locked Gibsons leg but its no cheaper than Horford throwing an Elbow at Delly tonight. Im sickened by the Atlanta forum and them calling for the Hawks to intentionally hurt Cav players. Sore losers!!

People will bitch about anything. Anyone trying to say he's a dirty player is just embarrassing themselves.

Horford's a p*ssy who played a part in ending TJ Ford's career. Besides Delly is getting crucified simply for making a freaking hustle play. It seems like the media has pegged the Cavaliers as the new 'Bad Boys'... we should embrace it lol.

Also did anyone see this? The Hawks have been attacking Delly since the series started but not once he B*tched or complained. He smiled and kept playing.

Not dirty but that leg lock thing would have pissed me off. However Horfods elbow (which luckily he missed) and the later elbow byTeague both can justify suspensions. That's just completely losing your cool

Wiz fan finding this ironic.

IMO, Jeff Teague ran under an in flight John Wall causing Wall to break those bones. Then the next game, Teague made a dirty play on Beal causing the mild mannered Beal to need to be restrained from going after Teague.

My point is, the Hawks should STFU.

Not a dirty player at all, just scrappy. Delly is bringing home that trophy baby!

Yeah Teague did a lot more dirty stuff to Delly than visa versa. Oh well whatever.

What I don't understand is how the same people that say of the playoffs that every single possession is incredibly important in the playoffs also have said that Delly should have taken a different angle at trying to get the ball. That doesn't make any sense to me. Bottom line as in most sports, you go aggressively after the loose ball. If you don't, you'll be the one that gets hurt standing around the pile. Bottom line, go hard or go home and so far, Delly has gone hard.

People are blowing this out of proportion trying to make it sound as though Delly hurt 3 players when in fact only one was ever hurt and absolutely nobody though that was a dirty play at the time.

Also Delly is a guy that has to go balls out every possesion or he might not have a place on an nba team. Thats why he's in the side.


Been a bit of talk about this back home in oz. Usually nba doesn't get much coverage.

Return to Cleveland Cavaliers
