    It was only a matter of time till someone broke open their knee or head on a camera.

    Kinda happened with Chris Paul.

    Also, that's how octopi talk. They squibber. Yes, it's a word. Shut up.

    Good. Push them guys and gals back. Have you seen the lens' on those things? Their zoom will work just fine from a distance.

    No, you were right the first time. It ruined a lot of his explosiveness, especially over the course of game.

    That injury happened at the first NBA game I ever attended. Have hated the cameras and crowds being so close ever since. A shame it took the injury to Paul George to really get the NBA to realize what a hazard baseline obstructions actually are.

    my buddies and i have pointed out how close the sideline cameras and fans are to the court. in full court, at full speed, there should be 10 ft of free space. its sad that it took one of the games young ambassadors going down for the league to see what many fans already knew. i mean how many times have you seen a player run full speed and end up in the cameras nest or in the crowd?

    Basketball Jones have been on that bandwagon for a while now. Is there a person alive who is upset at these rules?

    I AM UPSET

    "I don't know if people know — I dislocated my pinkie finger. And [Tyreke] told me, 'You wanna go home or you wanna be here?' I want to be here. And he said, 'All right, then go tape it up and let's play. Let's go. We not stoppin' at no stores. Straight gas. That's what we do, just keep going.'"
