Zach Randolph sucker-punches Louis Amundson

[Al Thornton]

wow 2 games.. I was expecting atleast 10... Didnt Melo get like 30?

That was a fight this was a push. Did you even watch the clip?

[dab0yech0]

More like Randolph just pushed his face, if he had really punched him, Amundson would've at least had a broken nose or cheek from one of Z-Bo's jabs

closed fist swing = punch

Z-Bo acting like a scumbag is par for the course. If someone told me he was runing a meth lab out of the snack bar I wouldn't be surprised.

Actually, I would expect if Randolph had a meth lab that it would include a snack bar.

Why do you have to come into every thread with some racist ****?

How is that racist? If that's racist, so was MLK's movement back then!

no it can be a push if its light and not forceful like Zachs

[CelticForce1349]

what are "hood rules" and lol at good people what is that suppose to mean someone sounds mad lol

I was just quoting you with your term and the rules you stated. Did you go back and change the wording?

light and not forceful? He swung at his ass how is that light and not forceful.. next thing we know its going to be unintentional right?

lol. Yeah, turns out Zach was just a "victim" of an unfortunate muscle spasm. Dumbo Louis just got in the way at the wrong time.

I don't think it was a real punch......that was more like a "get the **** out of my face' shove to the face.

Clippers Coach Mike Dunleavy, while not condoning Randolph's action, gave some insight into his player's frame of mind. Apparently Randolph learned his father was critically ill shortly before the game in Phoenix.

"Obviously you don't want anybody doing that," Dunleavy said. "But he found out before the game, literally in the locker room before the game, about his dad.

"He was trying to figure out if he could play in last night's game, or tonight's game."

Randolph was able to get back to Indianapolis, which is where his father is hospitalized. He spoke on the telephone to Dunleavy and apologized after the suspension was handed down.

Doesn't excuse his actions, but I can see why he did it.

oh oh i see. so i guess like some other poster said in this thread its only a punch if it breaks a bone or gives a bruise? well then i guess carmelo never threw a punch either and so many other players didnt either

Don't move, just put your face in the line of Zach's swing and see if you can still call it a push.
