Allen clearly catches his toes on the top of the guy's foot there and loses his balance. He's a giant douche but that's a huge reach.
Yeah, I watched the video. He was jumping into contact the whole time. There was no intention to take an actual shot there's as he had already moved forward into him and then jumped into him even more for that shot
Team Young on that one. He took a step in to create separation (didn't work), and by the time he pulled back Grayson had his arm hooked. You can't call that jumping into contact when his feet don't leave the ground
"Get him help!" "Mental Health!" He's just an asshole guys. He needs to fail, get fired, and figure something out.
He’s showing all the signs of being mentally unstable. It’s best to just lock him up before things get bad
I hate Grayson Allen as much as anybody but I always find this kind of clip interesting because a lot of people post videos of the 80s and 90s and players doing stuff like this and proclaim how it was real men and how players wouldnt survive back then With that said I hate that this dipshit is on my team
I think Dakich summed it up pretty well. Guys like Charles Oakley and Bill Laimbeer were tough interior players who were scrappy and played physical. Grayson Allen is just a little cheap shotting bitch who if challenged buy someone who was actually tough would get his ass handed to him. Let this pussy drive on Charles Oakley. The game is obviously played differently now, but if you transplant Grayson into the 80s or 90s someone is going to beat his ass and then he's either out of the league or cuts his shit out.
Is that really a cheap shot though? Looks like a hard (albeit lazy) foul to ensure the guy doesn’t get the bucket and the foul Nobody would bat an eye if it wasn’t him and he hadn’t had any other scuffles in that same game
literally less than 30 secs before that play, he got a flagrant for a cheapshot on the same player for screening him too hard it was 100% a cheapshot and i can't believe people still defend this dickhead
I’m not defending the previous play or any of his previous actions up until that particular foul. I would not classify it as a “cheap shot.” He was just being lazy as fuck not even attempting to jump to make the block so obviously the probably of him whacking the dude’s head goes up drastically. I don’t really care for the guy, but overreacting to every possible thing he does is a bit much.
of course no one would think twice if it was someone else. no one else has been doing this chickenshit stuff for the last 3 years like he has.
Williams had just set a hard screen on him a few seconds earlier, he wasn't even going for the ball. Are you saying that a guy who gets 2 flagrants in 30 seconds against the same player unintentionally swung at his head because he was too lazy to jump on the second one? That's one hell of a benefit of the doubt, considering what had just transpired, not to mention Allen's history of being a cunt.
Yeah, Draymond Green has been a model citizen in the NBA the last few seasons. Some guys are just agitators and they get joy out of it.
Oh he intentionally swung. But he’s not stupid. He made it look like he was still at least attempting to get the ball. My opinion is he was purposefully lazy with his swing so he would hit his head. I don’t think it’s a cheap shot. You see lazy fouls like that all the time in basketball. Guys will just hug someone who is about to go up for a layup or dunk, which could be equally as dangerous. It’s part of the game. I’ve seen harder fouls. My issue is some twitter cop calling it a “cheap shot”
Which is why “no one has been doing this chicken shit stuff in the last 3 years” is an overzealous and inaccurate statement
If you intentionally swing to hit someone in the head and not to hit the ball while doing it lazy to make it appear you wanted to hit the ball, how is it not a cheap shot?
i am a completely unbiased observer who always remains above the fray of partisan bickering. which is why it holds great weight when i, a straight shooter widely respected by both sides, say that grayson allen is a terrible human being.
