I guess now NBA players have to worry about their families on the sideline.

Good job NBA!


What are you and Paul going on about? Kid got kicked out of the game did he not?? NBA can't fine him, he is a customer not an employee..

You must be the type who blames the president if a child molester rapes a kid...

This kid is almost certainly an entitled POS, but can't help but laugh at Paul trying to fight him and crying about his children witnessing the situation... When the Mavs fan was probably only a couple years older than his own kids

That is exactly what you're saying though. You're saying fans of the away teams can expect to be asaulted for rooting for a different team and it's their fault. You sound all types of stupid.

I guess the 2 cowboy hat fans in game 1 and 2 should have gotten beat up and it would have been their fault.


I'm saying that you can't expect a reasonable behavior from terrible people and thus it's best to avoid them. And since CP3 is responsible for his family, he shouldn't have brought them there. He can be all politics if he wants, trying to "weed out" the bad people, but you can't put other people in this situation.

You can do whatever you want to yourself, you can go driving 150 miles per hour, but it's very irresponsible to bring innocent people into it. He should have left his family in the hotel, unless USA is just that more civilized country than the Balkans. But giving how many people are shot in the USA, I wouldn't say so.


People can be insulted anywhere. Does that mean he shouldn't bring his team anywhere? Why should people have to be worried about bringing their family to a game? If people get insulted fine, but you shouldn't lay your hands on their families.


The league needs to stop letting people sit court side, simple as that. These entitled neanderthals don't know how to act anyway, keep these idiots as far away from the players as possible and from the tunnel as well. Laughable to suggest CP not let his family attend playoff games. Yeah lets keep entitling these losers instead of doing something to stop them from acting like clowns.

You know The Hoop Central is like the Onion in regards to basketball, right? That is funny though, but I hope you realize it is a joke. It's a parody account.

EDIT: Reading the comments in the tweet, it seems like many people are unaware of that reality which makes it a bit funnier.

Yea I was joking .. :lol:

I simply prefer to wait and see what happened myself. Anything could have happened. Not picking any sides, find that works best for me. I'm certainly not insinuating that CP3 is making up excuses for his performance, the guy is a warrior on the court and didn't he already foul out anyway? I'd be happy for him if he finally won his first ring too.

This is reminiscent of young Chris Paul against the Spurs when he started to really hone in his contact embellishment skills after playing them in a series and seeing how they did it.
