Battery? Didn't you mean manslaughter?

First, what he did was wrong. Second, HOLY OVERREACTION
Indy Coug

Agreed. Punish him, but don't go so overboard.
bluecheese

Right. I'm not saying there shouldn't be a punishment, but what they handed out is excessive.

No it's not.

My problem is if they force him to sell ownership share.
bluecheese
6/6/19 3:30pm
It is a business decision. Life's tough and the other GS owners should sacrifice for him?

Owenership is a privilege, not a right I guess.

Hypothetically, someone from the Rockets (team that I can't stand) wrecks my wife like that (I know it wasn't malicious)

Hypothetically, I help my wife up knowing that could happen. Only a punk acts like that guy did.

It was an instinctive, split-second reaction. He was wrong but goodness gracious

And you seem to not understand that certain people in those situations are held to a higher standard.
Baron
6/6/19 5:58pm
Oh, I understand fully. I just disagree with the standard.

You're correct. He was absolutely in the wrong

If you don't know how to act by that age, you're hopeless. Off with ya. 🙂

I'm sure I wouldn't have shoved him in that scenario. I'm absolutely not condoning the behavior; however I also don't
MaxxPower

He is a billionaire. He is losing a small past time that he dabbles in.
Baron
6/6/19 9:44pm
Owners want players to like them. They need to sign them. Why would the other GS owners want to keep the guy around?
Baron
6/6/19 3:37pm
Probably, but man that was stupid. I mean really, really stupid.

If I were majority owner of GS I'd force a buy-out regardless of NBA's decision.

I saw a video. Was it just that little shove?

That unprovoked and unjustified little shove that constitutes a battery? Is that what you're referencing?

First off Lowry was never going to save that ball and he destroyed that lady. So

I have no issue with Lowry's effort. I prefer that to a guy who quits.

A player reacts in a split second to saving a ball from going out of bounds. Nobody is treating Lowry like a god. A

I guess? Didn’t look like he was particularly battered
Colorado
6/6/19 3:40pm
The guy was absolutely wrong for what he did. End of story. What punishment he deserves is a different issue.
SierraCoug
6/6/19 3:46pm
When did I claim he was right? I’m only questioning the crazy punishment

Battery? Didn't you mean manslaughter?

It's okay. His punishment is multiples worse than any battery punishment. So, justice is served.

Not saying he has to lose his ownership, but the only person at fault is him. Lowry did nothing wrong other than
SierraCoug

That's what I said. Lowry is allowed to bulldoze recklessly into the crowd
777
6/6/19 3:52pm
Lowry didn't "recklessly bulldoze" into the crowd. He made a legitimate play to save the ball. Blame GS for letting fans
SierraCoug
6/6/19 4:01pm
Do you know the definition of reckless? That was it. He did nothing wrong though
777
6/6/19 4:06pm
Pretty sure I do and what Lowry did wasn't reckless. It happens multiple times most NBA/college game where a player
SierraCoug

Happens every night. Doesn't mean the players have any concern for the fans.

If you introduce the video with "Here's a video of an assault"

Why does my guess of the video even matter? The point is Lowry is playing

I"m only explaining his point. It is a funny side to the whole thing.
Belboz

It is weird. She got destroyed. He was focused on the ball and didn't give one

There is a really easy solution. Get rid of courtside seats. Then when a player dives for a ball, he isn't barreling
SierraCoug

And all he should do is focus on the ball. He's trying to win a big game.

Indeed. Based on the replay, it’s just dumb. And to claim he’s racist?

It's one mistake. It was wrong, but the harm was minimal.

The harm was minimal? How are the players that he has to recruit viewing it? WHo is more important
Baron

Right. There are punishments that aren't forced selling of shares.

That would be a very short-sighted and unprincipled position to take.
