NAAAAAAZ REID

[–] kobe_doing_twerk@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

That what losing does to a man

[–] Cuts_you_up@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

That’s what I’m getting, I feel bad for Bane, I feel he’s not this type of person but losing night after night is making him a disgruntled player. They need to get Ja back at least.

[–] No-Athlete8322@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

He shoved our head coach two years ago….

[–] jackoftrades002@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Memphis aint ever going to recover. They like the wolves aren’t a winning franchise

[–] fireglz@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Dirty as fuck.

Edit: Rewatching it I legitimately don't get how that isn't a flagrant 2. How is that a basketball play?

[–] Wehavecrashed@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Flagrant Foul Penalty 1: Unnecessary contact committed by a player against an opponent

Flagrant Foul Penalty 2: Unnecessary and excessive contact committed by a player against an opponent

Hard for me to agree that contact was excessive.

[–] PositionOk8409@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I’m not even a grizz fan, but that wasn’t dirty as fuck lmao

Sure he nudged him off his line but let’s not act like this some Draymond shit

Definitely not Flagrant 2 worthy

[–] dys0n_giddey@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

He's lost his mind out there today

[–] SnarfSniffsStardust@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

My favorite part in all of this is Finch telling Naz to stop and “play smart” when ultimately Naz walking up to Bane got them a flagrant that would’ve never been called

[–] hankbaumbach@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I'm a little surprised you can T'd up for walking up to a guy the way Naz did. It was very nonchalant and aside from the tiny chest bump, almost no actual contact.

Like, if Reid took a defensive stance when he got next to Bane instead of standing straight up and down, play might have never stopped.

[–] SnarfSniffsStardust@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Pat Bev disappointed he didn’t decapitate Bane on the spot

[–] ratonbox@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Is there something in the water in Memphis?

[–] HuruHara@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

No, Bane's on that No-Nut November. He's just frustrated, man.

[–] Thunder-ten-tronckh@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

can y'all just let us get blown the fuck out in peace

[–] RickySuela@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I'm still amazed the Clippers lost a home game to you guys.

[–] 3s2ng@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Are you actually asking the question or do you just want to rub salt on the clippers?

[–] RickySuela@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I'm confused, what question did you think I was asking?

[–] quietsam@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Now that’s a question!

[–] Baconmazing@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Shoulder checking into a pushoff on a dude not even looking or touching you yet is crazy.

[–] BossButterBoobs@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Did Jaren Jackson break the code by going after Naz Reid first?

[–] CyberGoatPsyOps@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Getting blown out couldn't happen to a better team. Love to see it

[–] UGLEHBWE@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Damn bane is a strong dude but don't touch the goat like that

[–] JBProds@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

No way Bane did that & didn’t expect Reid to confront him

[–] baldwhip123@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Desmond bane is such a loser.

[–] winsbyboxes808@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Hold me back! Hold me back! - said Naz Reid who was isolated

[–] loupr738@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

What is Bane’s gameplan? He not only has negative wingspan he pick a dude with impossible wingspan

[–] SafariFlapsInBack@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago
[–] uoeno26@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Wait…this is a tech and a flagrant. I saw Donovan Mitchell do this and received a common foul.

[–] maremmacharly@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

That is such a soft call... And a flagrant????

[–] Thirdstar1@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Can’t lie, the face offs look so goofy when people dont immediately break it up. Just got 2 guys who are clearly gonna do nothing to each other.

[–] 3s2ng@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I think it's a flop. There's no way those T-Rex hands can extend that far. lol.

[–] TechnicianUpstairs53@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Them T Rex arms do not deserve the max.

[–] BorMato@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

An NHL and NBA crossover episode. I support it.

[–] MyLadySansa@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Kind of a cheap shot by Bane. Naz was looking back at the time

[–] todi41@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

"Getting run up on" / "confrontation" in the nba is hilarious. 1/10000 times is it anything more than two guys running up to each other, getting in each other's faces, not throwing amy shoves or punches and waiting for teammates to separate them AND THEN acting like they're being "held back" and tryna fight thru their teammates to get bacn to the guy...as if they would actually do something of their teammates let them go.

Not saying its a bad thing tbey dont fight like in hockey - its just funny how much of a song and dance it is / how predictable it is lol

[–] Thimit22@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

We literally just had a guy get put in a chokehold for 10 seconds and dragged across half the court lol

[–] todi41@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Dude i played hockey growing up. Tbat was a joke. Is Rudy injured for that "fight"?

again, not saying that i wish he was. Just saying its a joke. U can put me in a chokehokd for 20 seconds...ill be fine. Its a matter of perspective....that was nothing

[–] biinroii01@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

those 2 r my fantasy core

[–] WolverineLong1430@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

So it looks like Banes is taking on the tough guy on the team now that Brooks is gone. They were fine with the west and now they’re one of the worst teams. They must be getting frustrated.

[–] Kervdog666@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Love the grizz/wolves rivalry

[–] seddard@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Typical Bane.

[–] darthfoley@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Should’ve been a flagrant 2. Dude is trying to blindside him like it’s an interception return.

[–] F-a-t-h-e-r@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

as someone who doesn’t know anything about sports, the guy in blue got in trouble and not the one in green, right?

[–] hankbaumbach@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

The NBA desperately needs to add a 4th official to the floor and get the calls right the first time.

There should have been a whistle on the initial contact but because we are asking the 3 man crew to see through the largest human beings on planet Earth, there are times the person who is supposed to have the angle to call this play has their vision blocked by a 6'6" dude.

Everyone wants the calls right the first time, players, coaches, fans, even officials, so give them another angle to view the action by putting a 4th set of eyes on the floor.

[–] SpursExpanse@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Bane braced for the immediate retaliation even before Naz got off the floor 😂

[–] just_cows@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Pretty hilarious with this situation and the Gobert/Draymond scuffle that people get on the Wolves for not fighting back. Do they realize that for the first time in FOREVER the Wolves are in first place and looking like a contender? Yet, let’s get suspended over bums like Bane and the ghost of Draymond. GTFO.

[–] ZombieOfTheYear@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Bitch ass move.
