Larry Hughes Ejection

Larry Hughes ejection last night with 5 minutes into the first quarter surprised most of us. He was asked about it after the game. It appeared Carmelo Anthony was hitting him on the arm whenever he took a jump shot and the referees were not responding

Here’s what he said:

“I said what I had to say and it’s over with. I got hit four straight times and I asked him to call a foul. Melo kept smacking my arm. He was trying to get away with it, on the first shot he fell and then smacked me on the leg and that started it off. It’s a good tactic if you can get away with it. You have to be allowed to say something about it. Any time you get ejected it’s over the top. You say what you have to say. I am not going to drag it on, I want to move on.”

    I\’m not shore of what is going on with this? If anyone has the tape to look aback and see if Hughes is right on this? I don\’t turn on the DVR if I\’m watching! If the refs should have made the call then it needs to be addressed but if Hughes was just whining then move on!

  2. Tariq Ali says:

    It was hard to tell on TV and not sure exactly what Hughes said to the ref that got him so ungry. What ever it was, it didn’t do the team any good espcially with Sasha on the injured list.

    Brian Peters,
    Why would you make a comment on something, if you don’t even know what happened? Get a life!

  4. Johnny Ray says:

    actually, the rev was berating Larry for his shooting performance.
