For the last several years, people have said their problem with the NBA is it’s ‘too buddy-buddy’, and that ‘all of these guys are friends.’ Well, that’s changed in the last two years. These guys are more petty and chippy than ever. I said on the podcast last night, that we are back to 90’s basketball with a better offensive viewing experience. We saw another fight in Orlando as Arron Affalo and Nemanja Bjelicia went at it out of nowhere.

When you watch the video, you’ll see Affalo throw a haymaker completely unprovoked. Obviously, Bjelicia did something wrong to spark this type of anger out of the Magic guard that he’d want to fight him. I can’t imagine a more odd duo to fight considering both players do not see many minutes, and it’s not like the Magic-T’Wolves have this long rivalry between them. It’s pretty clear to me that Bjelicia said something to him that led to a haymaker being thrown.

Let’s see if we can make it three nights in a row with a fight this evening. My guess is Adam Silver is none too pleased about all of this happening, but he can pipe down.

Charlie.
