It's obvious Olynyk played that aggressively, but it's also the playoffs and it was a loose ball. Why would he intentionally try to injure Kevin Love?


I'd agree that he wasn't intentionally trying to injure Love. But he was intentionally taking actions that cause injury at a pretty high rate.

To me, this would be the same as intentionally undercutting a player on a breakaway dunk. You aren't explicitly trying to injure and it could be construed as an aggressive play to prevent a basket, but should be treated as intent to injure.

I dont think he was trying to injure Love. But he was def trying to hurt him. And when that does end up resulting in an actual injury, you should get a harsh punishment in sports

Meh. I prefer to punish people on the actions, not the results. Olynyk had a very aggressive play that went wrong, I'm fine with a 1 or 2 game suspension. Olynyk currently doesn't ha E a history of being an a-hole, but if this is the start of a trend on his part, I could change my stance.

You keep saying this. This wasnt an aggressive basketball play. This was a dirty play that had nothing to do with the game of basketball. It is nothing against the cetics, they are a fine organization with a fine young coach, but this was a dirty play

Yeah, God forbid Love ran to the locker room because his shoulder was dislocated.

A hard basketball play was Kevin Love using his left arm to shield Kelly Olynyk away from the ball. A cheap play was Kelly Olynyk "countering" this tactic by using both of his arms to yank Love's arm purposely. There is a difference.

You reek of so much hatred that your posts make little sense.

On first look I thought it was just another nothing play but one of the slow motion replays shows intent IMO. Kelly was intending to wrench his arm, if not injure.

Good sour grapes action for the Celtics. They can't do anything but they can try to ruin another team's chances of advancing.
