    Genuinely happy for him, and genuinely glad he's on another team. Win win!

    Whatever it takes is more than we've got. And I for one am glad. I don't need him to bring over that winning Minnesota culture. Ask Jimmy Butler about how great KAT is.

    I thought what Morris did to Jokic was potentially more dangerous than what Jokic did to Morris. Putting a shoulder into a really big man when he is up in the air could have resulted in a serious ankle or knee injury. It's ridiculous all the crying Spoelstra and Butler did.

    I believe the correct way to phrase that so SPC will understand is, “The Lakers are nasty as cat crap.”

    Do we still have people who remember the "Deron is Deron" forum meme?

    Both were dangerous fouls that could have caused really bad injuries. Suspensions are in order. Was Jokic' foul really that much worse? Both were blindsided.

    Morris should be upgraded to a flagrant 2. Jokic should get a 1 game suspension

    Morris gave a cheap shot then turned and walked away, he's lucky Joker didnt get him in a head lock, and pull him around the court.
    Morris has been asking for a response like this for some time.
    Suspend them both, Morris hit him blindsided and started the whole thing.

    Wasn’t too long ago teams had players that took care of those players so the All Star didn’t have to.
    Enforcers.
    You simply did not do that kind of play without knowing Lucas, Lambeer Oakley were coming at you. Joel Pryzbilla Steve Blake.
    Seriously Blazers need an enforcer. Obviously the Nuggets do as well.
