November 29, 201213 yr Author I didn't think the push by Humphries was all that bad actually. I'd barely call it a push. Huge overreaction.
November 29, 201213 yr I'd barely call it a push. Huge overreaction. I agree, and Garnett adds to the fire by adlibing the fall.
November 29, 201213 yr In Rondo's defense, in the heat of the moment it looked worse than what it was and I'm sure it looked different on the court. He defended his teammate. While I'll admit Rondo is a punk I'm not willing to call this a punk move. I want teammates ready to fight for me also. Where any punches thrown? All I can see is a lot of pushing and jersey grabbing. Should either even have been ejected? Humphries hit Garnett's shoulder and all Rondo seems to do is grab Humphries who then tried to run away by back pedaling.

I agree with you, just looked like a bunch of pushing and shoving, overreation by Rondo yes.

It looked like Garnett got hit in the face. I think Rondo has an attitude problem, but I'm with PP92. I like the point guard showing some fight and sticking up for his teammates. If he woudl have came in swinging, I'd feel a little differently.

I called it a "push" because I saw a reply where it didn't look like he got hit in the face at all.

November 29, 201213 yr Author This video has another view of it around the 3 minute mark. I don't see where he hit him in the face. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=011nkrYowTw
November 29, 201213 yr It certainly didn't look like he was going for the ball from any of the replays, in my opinion.
