Im a Lakers fan so maybe my opinion is flawed lol. But it was a cheap shot in the act of celebrating. It looks so much worse in slow motion and looks like he really wanted to hit him. But in real time, it just seems like in the flow or just getting carried away. He should be suspended possible 2 or 5 games. Maybe cuz of shortened season 4 but anything more than 5 would be shocking to see. And this decision shouldnt be done based on how severly Harden was hurt-i just think thats stupid.
I'm agree with you almost 100%Quote:

Im going 5 games i mean some people are saying over 5 so i guess will have to wait and see! My personal opinion is it was a cheap shot.
He should be done the rest of the season, that was such a cheap shot
dude is crazy, grew up on the streets of brooklyn, got into alot of fights in highschool and college as well and he take meds..he should be gone for the playoffs and fine 1mil for that cheap shot..
this guy is an idiot he sucks at bball...and just looking for publisity....he sucks
horrible name too....at least ochocinco was funny/his jersey number....this name is fukin retarded haha
Yes, definitely a cheap shot. I think he should be suspended for the first two rounds of the playoffs and if they only play in the first round he should be suspended for 5 games to start next season.
I think I heard he was suspended for 7 games, is that right?
Yep, definitely a cheap shot. I think he should have gotten 10 games, but what he did get is okay by me.
He should be suspended simply for having such an asinine name.
Metta World Peace of sh*t.
what a joke that they let him change his name.
getting suspend for 7 games is like get criminal offend.
Deserves 7 games, but whoever says he sux at bball prolly hasnt watched him play. Maybe hes toward the end of his career but this guy was really good and can still be a solid defender in the league.
Metta world Peace is a certified nutjob. He should be kept in a jail cell until phil jackson returns.
The league hasn't had a certified nutjob since Rodman retired. Gotta have somebody to hate besides the Celtics.
