JJs v Hawks, March 19
Hawks down 9 at 1/4 to up 8 at the half. Goorg ripping in in a time out.

Who's the worst import - XRM or McIntosh?

Roth is a good coach but an idiot, wanting to fight Cleveland at games end because he does exactly what Roth does after a win, not once, twice but three times is lol .
Hawks far to good in the end.

Understand Roth getting upset in the first instance but settle down after that. Get mad at your team for getting blown out.

Love Scott Roth's work - if the Hawks are that good they'd be safely in the top 4.
The difference in talent of Illawarra and Tasmania is significant - Hawks should be pushing for a title.
Nothin wrong with a bit of passion from Roth.

Nothing wrong with passion but if you are going to give it you got be able to take it. Cleveland did nothing but a Roth celebration. Roth don't have the celebration rules for himself.

You know, what's great about it is that it's an import doing that. Someone who came to the league only 6 months ago, having played NBA, is this invested in the league that Roth's celebration stuck with him, and he wanted to get one back on Roth.
I love that passion. From both guys, really

Hey Boba Fett I'm CURIOUS how Stewie would've reacted in the same situation if he was head coach. Actually I'm not.

@ PW, while Roth has done remarkably well, he's a knob. It’s not called for.

Looking at it, it was rather harmless bravado.
Roth was not throwing right hooks, he just wanted to give Cleveland a piece of his mind and Cleveland DGAF.
Not really news worthy but Roth should be able to get if he likes to give.

Interesting when you look at the footage. The nonsense of not hand shaking for one is wrong. Cleveland gave a lil slap to Roth's hand as he went pass. Poor effort admittedly. Nothing in it except as the commentators eventually worked it out, Roth kept going back to confront Cleveland.
For Perthwoods crush on Stewie here are the thoughts of Stewie.

Cleveland's spot in the handshake queue was disrupted by Roth's reaction so perhaps it wasn't quite unsportsmanlike? That said, I don't know the history with Roth.
