Thoughts on Jokic and Morris?

The altercation

Jimmy Butler after it happened

Chuck and Shaq's take

Bonus: Boogie Cousins standing up for a teammate last season when Morris took a cheap shot on him.

Personally, I don't want to see anyone hurt, but I think Morris got what he deserved. It was only a matter of time before someone wouldn't take the cheap shots he's done over the years any longer. It just happened to be a seven foot Serb that stood up for himself.

Morris has been begging for it for years.  He earned it.

It's like the glory days of the NBA. Bad Boys in Detroit, etc. Love it. Enough of this sissy, artistic, no D NBA. Let men be men.

Shaq and Chuck are both 1000% correct. Good for Joker.

I wish Jokic would have done more damage to that punk before he got mobbed.

As unwatchable as the NBA has been for the last 15 years, this is welcome comic relief.

First of all, Morris hits Jokic in his exposed ribcage, got an elbow in there as well. Jokic went right back at him and Morris acts like he needs 911. GTFO.

Why didn't we see any of Morris's teammates stand up for him. Cousins doesn't count because all he did was run his mouth and make sure one of the bench assistants had ahold of him.

Yeah, 6'11", 270lb Cousins has a 5'9" 180lb bench coach holding him back. Gotcha.

You're a punk, Morris, and Cousins is a mouthy bitch.

Morris is lucky that’s all he got.
