Metta World War

There is nothing to debate really. If anybody says that they can't see this being intentional then they need to get their eyes checked.


Only thing up to debate really is how long the suspension should be.

The only people I've seen really defending it are Lakers fans. Saying that Harden is an in game headcase, and a trash talker. He got in Artest's way and whoops.

For the record, I think it looks intentional, the dude has some major issues to work out and reminds me of a modern day Spreewell, but someone's gotta play devil's advocate FRPLG started in that direction and backed off a little. lol

LOL @ 7 games. Stern knows what's best for the playoffs (ie, a competitive Lakers team).

Here is a video they probably won't take down. When you watch slow-mo it doesn't seem as bad, but Harden bumped Artest and he got pissed. That kind of elbow could cause serious and permanent damage. 7 games is a joke IMO. I don't care what the league was like in the past. Harden should press charges too.

I'm a big Laker fan and it was without a doubt intentional.

All NBA players talk trash. Doesn't mean they should get hit in the head. Thats street mentality.

Not directly to you personally, DR.

Definitely on purpose.. bush league move by world war or whatever his name is..
