We're watching the replays of the Gordon Hayward injury and taking like a fifth

0:12.8

and six look at it.

0:16.1

Crowder does get down in like a crouching position.

0:19.9

So Hayward's going towards the basket

0:22.4

Crowder's behind him and with his back towards Hayward's back he sticks his ass out

0:28.6

underneath him and sort of undercuts him so obviously I don't know how kosher a move that is

0:36.1

I don't think it's a dirty play I think it's an aggressive don't think it's a dirty play. I think it's an aggressive play.

0:38.7

I think it's a basketball play.

0:40.3

But I know that there has been a lot of talk over the past year or so of getting underneath a player who has jumped.

0:47.4

I know that you remember, Kauai, in a different way.

0:49.3

But turning your back to his back and sticking your ass out, you don't you don't see that all the time

0:55.4

I mean that you like literally like I could see if he you know tried to step in

1:01.3

front of him or if he was facing his back but to turn his back around and stick

1:06.6

his ass out while the guy's in air I'm not sure how how often you see that. I think A. Sherrod Blakely's in your head. I think he's, and the question that he asked Jay Crowder, it's getting you thinking. Here is Jay Crowder yesterday. Ashrod Blakely after the game for NBC Sports Boston mentioned something that I swear I didn't even think about after the play, and I still don't think it You know there's anything to it but this is kind of interesting because jay crowded does not like this question one bit

I mean, I don't think I tried to do anything. I know I didn't. I mean, he came down funny. Like I said, my back was turned, now I look down. I just saw his leg. But it has nothing to do with. The situation took place. I mean, I can't control that. I can't control that. I can't control the injury. It's out of my hands at that point. It is amazing how things change overnight, because last night, Noel was talking about Jay Crowder, have any kind of responsibility, and now all of a sudden people's minds are being changed. It just is, it's a odd play.
