Let’s get it! *Ring Bell*
Wednesday night’s NBA game between the Phoenix Suns and the Houston Rockets had a tense little brawl in the second quarter, but the value of entertainment could be much better if the NBA allowed players to fight like the NHL.
During the Sands Center, the drama sparked Mason Plumley and the Rockets Center Stephen Adams I was trapped while competing for paint location. Meanwhile, Plumley forced his elbow towards Adams’ head, taunting the New Zealander to grab the former Duke Blue Devil. (Related: NBA Slap Jazz Fine $100,000 for League-wide crackdown)
The next one came was Minisky Mish, who was completely intertwined and fell to court. It was one of those scenes you wanted to see both players go to it with pure rage.
Each Plumlee and Adam were hit by ejections, which is absolutely ridiculous, but whatever.
This is One angle Scrap, and I have it too One more For ya.

Everything about me… why do they accept the NHL when they fight, but are they a bad look when NBA players scratch?
I say let them fight. If the NBA really wants to boost TV ratings and ticket sales, they erupt WWE in the arena every night. Holy Hell, I can now imagine magic.
I want “malice at the palace” every day! Adam Silver, give it to me!
