Malice at the Palace II

Unless Mahorn is utterly, categorically innocent, he'll be thrown out of the league by sunrise.

You cannot have mastodon-sized male assistants throwing women to the floor.

Period.

 

You got the period part right.

 

WE GOT NEXT

 

"Rick Mahorn... appeared to push Lisa Leslie."

Oh boy.

 

Congrats to the WNBA's PR people for finding a way to get the average sports fan to pay 90 seconds of attention to the league.

 

CAT FIGHT!!!

 

Just saw the tape.

Mahorn thrown out of the league by midnight.

 

Where did you see it, I can't spot it in the youtube clip?

 

Just played it on ESPN. Mahorn clearly shoves Leslie to the floor with two hands.

 

I just found the picture on ESPN.com.

It was the only live bit of WNBA I've seen in five years.
And yeah, it sure as hell looked like he was innocent. He's trying to break up the scuffle and it looked like Leslie stumbled backward. Both announcers at the time said it looked like he was breaking up a fight and was innocent/. ESPN said Michael Cooper agreed he was trying to break up a fight. Sorry, Star. I dont think he shoved her. I think he tried to push her away and she stumbled.
Then, in the interview with She Who Shall Not Be Named afterward, Leslie tried to pull this "I'm a role model" shit. Ask Becky Hammon how much of a role model you are, assfuck.

 

Don't forget, she's a mom too!
