I can't watch this right now, who did he punch? If it was Pau, Pau should worry about Batum doing it again and then holding up two fingers. How embarrassing, and to do that on an international stage?
At least it shows he has a mean streak; that's kind of encouraging. But I do hope he was retaliating for something that got done to him earlier...
He punched Navarro with intent from the start. Ran up to him with a closed fist and teeth clenched and hauled of on his sensitives.
It was retaliation against Spain for winning. Why would Spain do anything to a guy that just stands on the 3 point line?
Batum really seems to hate Spain - the most fire he's ever demonstrated in the NBA is dunking on Pau. Wonder if him and Rudy are still going antiquing together later.
maybe next year he can post a 15 PER and maybe even approach a .400 shooting percentage! after he comes back from the shredded knee that is
LOL Dumb Portland fans showing they don't know very much about basketball. How'd he do in steals and assists? Or do those count for nothing in this league you dream of? You would KILL to have Rubio as your PG and you all know it. True story.
Over Lillard? I would not be so sure. Personally I want my best ball handler to be one of my top scorers. Last January I would have killed for Rubio. Right now..... not so much.
worst shooting percentage in the nba below average PER kemba walker had a higher PER last year, and kemba walker shot .366 from the field and he doesnt have a shredded knee
