It’s almost as if the Zebras just wanna ruin the fun. Imagine if this was the first time a kid was able to see Giannis in person? All that time, money, and effort to see your favorite player just for them to get the boot.
To eject Giannis over that, but a few days ago Draymond Green is allowed to run and yell at refs for 45 seconds and gets no tech for it is just a gross display of abusive power.
Taunting is part of the entertainment. Im surprised the league wouldn’t allow it.
They can’t have something that might lead to fights. It’s not like hockey where everyone is padded up and the fans are separated from the action. Malice at the Palace showed the danger of a heated engagement escalating with potentially dangerous outcomes for fans, athletes, and staff.
I mean in football they don’t let people taunt and the game revolves around hits. Pretty dumb that when Tyreek Hill runs to the endzone, him giving a peace sign will get him an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty.
Taunting leads to fights. Absolutely the last thing the nba needs
Fighting leads to fights. These are grown men paid millions. If they jeopardize their career over being a tough guy, that’s on them.
