Austin Rivers Unleashed One Of The Most Vicious Elbows You'll Ever See In An NBA Game

Oh my god, I certainly hope you did not click this blog with any children around. This is how you scar someone for life by exposing them to a play like this. Have you ever seen anything so vicious and uncalled for? I certainly can't remember anything close. I don't know how Austin Rivers doesn't get suspended for his, maybe even into the playoffs. Is that possible? It should be when you commit such a hostile act of violence. There's no place for that in this game.

.........Are we done with that?

OK, what are we doing here. Come on Adam, clean this up. I cannot sit here and try and spinzone this kind of stuff for you. Nobody can. This is ridiculous. It's outrageous. It's pathetic. It makes it very hard to stick up for my favorite sport and league when this kind of stuff keeps happening. Because let's not forget, we've seen insane ejections too many times to count this season. Remember this one from Kyle Lowry?

This just cannot happen. The explanation Michael Malone got makes it even worse

Of fucking course Tony Brothers was involved! I'm not sure how you can committ a malicious act without ya know, committing the malicious act considering Rivers never made contact. That seems pretty important in a result like that. He didn't swing his elbows around like a weapon or anything. Apparently Brothers told him there didn't need to be contact. That feels wrong but hey it's Tony Brothers so who is even remotely surprised?

Not a great time to try and resist all the hockey hardos who are about to tell me how sick the NBA is. I agree, normally it is. When they do shit like this though, then they should just be embarrassed. Grow up.
