I liked some of them. The Boston-Brooklyn game was very pleasing on the eyes with those solid Green and Black jerseys.

Miami Heat jersey was also neat looking.

Thunder and Rockets was the lamest.

Looks ugly to me. Who is who? I could only tell because of the jerseys that had a contrasting outline and I could make out the logos, etc,

Lol. Surprisingly exciting game between the Heat and Bobkitties. Wade accidently kicks the defender's balls and commentators say it was intentional. Lol haters.

If it was Kobe's elbow, it would have been a defensive foul.

Speaking of the Lakers, I'm glad the Nuggets got the win against them. They did it with a solid team performance as well. Nice foul by Howard:

That's just Howard being a Lakers. Dirty.

Anyways, here it is...

It pains me to say it, but that did look intentional by Wade.

I don't know if out was an intentional kick to the groin. When Wade was fouled, it looked like he lost his balance for a second as he was hit while starting a move to his right.

It looks pretty suspect. Can't blame Sessions for confronting Wade like that, a smart move on his part not to escalate the situation with shoving or punches though.

Brewer sure had the hot hand against the Lakers, great win for the Nuggets. I was a little surprised to see them call the flagrant two on Howard; it's a fair call, but watching the game and awaiting the ruling, I figured he'd get the benefit of the doubt and a flagrant one.

For... what exactly? All he did was walk up and talk to him, which is understandable. I would have a few cute words for Wade as well if I was in that situation.

Looks intentional in my opinion. Not the first cheap shot from Wade either, the elbow to Darren Collison's back when he was running at full speed immediately comes to my mind. He just has that tendency to be a major douche.

Crazy shot by Darren Collison to send it to overtime.

Wade suspended game for action against Sessions
Disgustingly flawed decision by the league. :shake:

Dei, are you contemplating changing your avatar after that game? That guy Mayo played like an absolute bum that game. Single handedly threw the game away. That was just plain aweful. My god.

Seems appropriate enough. As one would expect, Howard also received a fine in the wake of his flagrant-two.

Incredible shot by Collison, an instant classic in the history of buzzer beaters.

With all the jokes aside, the problem with Wade is his chippyness when he believes he has been fouled and nothing was called, he sometimes loses it. Incident with Collison was a good example of it. The game against the Bobkitties was a physical one and I believe Wade could have avoided kicking Sessions in the nuts if he tried. His claims of it being an innocent mistake holds little value because it's only right for the league to take an action on preventative measures.

I can't agree Wade's a dirty player though I can understand him being labeled a douche. He lets emotions take over and it often works as fuel that drives him to play with high intensity and chippy at times.

Bullshit. Wade clearly had his weight on his right foot as he was starting a drive to his right. The upper body contact from Collision caused him to be off balance which is why he ended up raising his left leg. It was purely a reaction to the contract as he stated himself.

While Wade may be a player that will exaggerate contact to get a call, I don't recall him being a player that would pull off such a nasty play on purpose. However, the league will take action during these instances, regardless of intention of a player.

I'm not buying that. I think suggestions of Wade being a dirty player akin to someone like Bruce Bowen are overblown, but at the very least it was a reckless flail.
