DAVID LEE
“I thought he kind of led with his elbow a little bit on the initial duck in. I shoved him back a little bit and I think it kind of escalated quick from there. But From what I saw, no punches were thrown or anything.”DAVID WEST
“I really don’t know what happen. I just know multiple guys were in there. They were doing a whole lot of pushing. Just wanted to make sure we were able to defend ourselves and get our guys out of that mix.”HIBBERT
“Seriously, I didn’t even feel (Curry). He just ran up on me. I don’t know. It’s between me and David Lee and he wants to get involved. I’m the type of person, I don’t want to start anything with someone that’s smaller than me. If I have somebody my size, we’ll talk it out like men. … I probably did toss the little guy to the side.”STEPHEN CURRY
“Teams are gearing up for playoff basketball, ramping up the intensity a little bit. Its going to happen. It’s healthy just to not back down, be physical. You’d like to not see that tussle happen. But for the most part, it was just a good, clean physical game that we have to expect for the rest of the year.”
Here are some initial reactions from what happened:
(apologies to Danny Green for assuming he was talking about the game when he tweeted this)
Tweet of the Day: Dennis Rodman
Tweet of the Night: James Harden
Pacers are a team of fake tough guys – have been for decades.
Please correct this – Danny was not talking about Curry. He was conducting a clinic for the Spurs Youth Basketball League and was referring to what happened when he told 300 kids “to bring it in”. He was not anywhere near a TV to watch the Warriors/Pacers game. Read his whole timeline.
