Cousins vs Paul. How did Paul survive this vicious attack?

not necessarily, but if it did, it was because Paul intentionally stepped into Cousins, LIKE I SAID!

Cousins could have been just reacting to Paul's flop, or not, it doesn't matter.

I agree it was caused by Paul. I just meant that, with the way Cousins changes his leg movements at the end, their feet must have tangled up somehow.
 
Pisses me off. Dumb

I'd like to see major fines for blatant abuse.

This. **** warnings. This isn't like say a helmet to helmet hit in the NFL where players have been trained to hit the hell out a guy for years and are reacting in tenths of seconds.

Paul's made a conscious decision here and should have received a hefty fine.

IMO, penalties should be.

1st offense: Half game check
2nd offense: Whole game check, one game suspension
3rd offense: Three whole game checks, two game suspension + one game post-season suspension (or another third regular-season game suspension at beginning of following year for non-playoff team)

Maybe then these guys will stop this ********.

I would just give them half their salary for the season and kick them out of the league.

The problem with cracking down is that it is not just a few instances or a few players .
There are thousands of instances, all similar but each a little different. How do you draw the line?
 
In this particular instance, the refs should have called a foul or a tech on Paul.
Everything could be fixed if the refs just made better calls.

Paul did get a warning from the NBA.


Looks like Enes isn't the only player with telekinesis. So this is what they teach you at Kentucky, eh PKM? The instructor must have been on sabbatical for the last year due to Kentucky's performance this past season.......

On a serious note, there should be no warning at all. You do this and you get fined. This is the only way it is going to stop.
