Minnesota at Philadelphia: Joel Embiid is A Punk

[apollotsg [enjin:6592798]]

I am really disappointed in the NBA's ruling on the fight in Phili. Ben Simmons immediately wrapped his arm around the throat of Towns and laid on top of him applying pressure to his throat. Simmons did not release his grip despite five people standing over Towns AND one of Simmons coaches repeatedly tapping his arm to let go.

Then Simmons has his fucking smirk and out the side of his mouth comments about being a physical team after the game.

If I were the owner of the Timberwolves, I think I might hire some straight-up thugs to 10-day contracts to literally fuck them up on the court the next time we played - and then say the exact words Simmons said after the game. Every Phili player would be in a peaceful chokehold within 2 minutes of the game after the altercation started.

I like it. This goes hand in hand with my anti-bullying stance.

I said it that night, if this were hockey Simmons would be toast. 3rd man in is a coward. Simmons is a punk who has probably never been in a real fight in his life.

Every good team has an enforcer. Think of all the good enforcers on the Wolves of the history of the franchise. Like.....

You mean you guys don't calm people down with your arms placed around the wind pipe in a rear naked choke too? What a fucking joke of a comment from the NBA. That shit looked like it was straight out of the Octagon.

20 years ago...Christian Laettner?

Maybe Spree

That team with Craig Smith and Ryan Gomes seemed fairly physical.

Pekovic was tough and nobody messed with him, but he was not going to knock someone down to send a message.

Bill Laimbeer was an assistant back then

We need to trade for Belly.
