Last thing I’m discussing on the topic for anyone who needs it explained clearly: Regarding the hard fouls: The argument is that because Hart yanked Castles hair and neck (no foul was called) and Chet stomped Wembys foot (no foul was called) and because Hart two hand yanked Wembys arm and shoulder numerous times (no fouls were called) when he was going for rebounds and blocks all BEFORE any of the stuff you’re referencing Spurs did (Plumlee shot to McCain, Carter running into SGA) - that spurs had enough. That if Okc was going to keep doing this AND the refs weren’t even going to protect them via calling the fouls on the obvious dirty stuff (all on video, all captured without a doubt) that in sports it’s common to fight back and send a message that if you continue to do these things (which is fine imo - it’s playoff basketball and as long as you aren’t injuring people a little dirty is expected) that we are more than capable of looking for our opportunities to do it back and we don’t want to hear any crying when it happens. So before you yank our hair, elbow our throat area, yank our arms and shoulders repeatedly and stomp our feet? Think twice because you’re not going to like what happens back to you and you will not punk us and get away with it.
