Metta World Peace Ejected For Vicious Elbow

Metta World Peace was ejected from the Los Angeles Lakers' game against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Sunday after receiving a flagrant foul 2 for hitting James Harden in the head with his elbow. World Peace threw down a dunk to draw the Lakers to within one, 48-47, with 1:39 remaining in the second quarter. As he made his way back up the court, World Peace started to beat his chest in celebration before striking Harden, who was behind him, in the back of the head with his left elbow, causing the Oklahoma City guard to fall to the floor.
Play was stopped for several minutes while the referees separated Lakers and Thunder players who were arguing and the flagrant 2 determination was only made after the collision was reviewed on a video monitor at center court. World Peace appeared to plead to an official that his elbow was inadvertent and only a result of his chest-thumping celebration motion.

Thats not to peaceful.

 

Metta World Peace may be a nice guy off the court but has a brain the size of a pea on the court.

Suspension coming?

 

he deserves nothing less than a long suspension. that elbow was well timed and well aimed.
given his past transgressions i see him missing hte rest of the season and the playoffs too

 

Is this season a contract year for the artist formerly known as Ron Artest?

 

Anyone got a video? I didn't get to see it. Sounds pretty terrible.

Castrate that thug wanna be POS.

 

Wow. He needs to be gone until next year at least. That is pathetic.

 

That's 100% on purpose.

 

It was on purpose but I don't think he intended it to be that hard or accurate.

 

Now that I seen it, it was definiley intentional.

 

With all the bullcrap this guy has done he should be kicked out of the league. Every time I hear this guy's name it's something bad. GTFO.

 

That fake name is wayyyyyyyy better then Ochocinco

Thanks for in incite JJ.

 

Hope Harden hecks with him and presses charges claiming assault.

 

well, considering he has had a lot of problems before, the suspension could be more severe.

 

this guy deserves atleast a first round suspenssion.
