McCollum punched Donovan in the gut last night

I saw it on the replay. Didn't anyone else? McCollum was driving into the paint and either elbowed or punched Donovan in the solar plexus with his off-arm. Donovan clutched his midsection and winced in pain. Did anyone else see it. Remember he elbowed Rudy in a similar fashion in the throat in the last game the Jazz played Portland. You think the Jazz should get physical with him next time they play?

Ed Davis stabbed a man with a trident... it was a steel cage death match... on the other end it was walking on eggshells doe.

The most annoying play is when the other teams stick their elbows out into Rudy’s chest, neck or face and then he gets called for the foul.

Like the one that McCollum did and very egregiously, as well, that caused Rudy to fall back and hold his neck in pain and complain to the ref.
 
just more evidence the roughness of the 90s is overrated. you can't even tell for sure if there was anything intentional by Malone, yet they ejected him. not a given that he would have been ejected in today's game. very possible he gets a flagrant 1 for that.

What quarter did it happen in? What time? I recorded the game and will check it out.
 
I remember watching Malone hit Isaiah real time. At the time i thought it was intentional, but not intending to hurt him and certainly not as bad as the Pistons reacted. Watching the replays since it looks less intentional to me.

I think Isaiahs head just overreacted, or maybe flopped to sell the foul to the refs.

I saw the play in real-time and wondered what happened, didn't catch the replay though.

Yeah, I saw Donovan get hit in the stomach too. If it's the same play he was to the right of McCollum out near the free-throw line as McCollum drove to the basket.

We are going to have to step up our toughness for the playoffs. You basically have to match the dirtiness of the other team. I like the way Crowder was last night. He had the right idea when he pushed Lillard. When the other team is abusing you you need to try something to throw them off and getting extra physical can work. Draymond Green can be a kook but he throws the other team out of rhythm.

Jazz fans complaining about "dirty" basketball is hilarious.

Y'all watched the same Stockton and Malone I did, right? And Ingles...
 
CJ uses his offhand as much as anyone else in the league. Refs were quick to call that against Donovan against the Warriors 2 nights ago. I've never seen it called against McCollum. Granted, I only watch Jazz games, so maybe its just against the Jazz, but that arm extends A LOT.
 
Yeah, he got Donovan pretty good, the ref realized it and called an offensive foul later on in the play as a make up call. Got him pretty good, stopped Donovan in his place. Playoffs aren’t gonna be soft, and Donovan’s gonna be one of the ones getting beat up on the most and getting the least amount of calls.
