Undecided Question

just recently…

The NBA is reviewing the postgame incident in Boston involving New Orleans guard Chris Paul and the Celtics' Rajon Rondo.

Paul pursued Rondo toward the Celtics' locker room and had to be blocked by Boston assistant coaches after the Celtics' 97-87 victory on Sunday night. The point guards had been assessed matching technical fouls in the second quarter after they got tangled up under the basket.

NBA spokesman Tim Frank confirmed the league was looking into the incident, though Paul seemed unaware and unconcerned.

"That's over and done with," he said Monday after a 117-111 loss in New York. "We just played the Knicks. The Boston game, that's over and done with."

Paul denied on his Twitter page earlier Monday that he ever got close to the Boston locker room or exchanged words with Celtics assistant coach Tom Thibodeau.

Hornets coach Byron Scott said the league didn't call to interview him about the incident and he didn't ask Paul much about it.

"I think there comes a point in time in a game or even after a game when somebody says something to you, and the only thing I heard Chris say at the end of the game when we were walking off was that, 'He's going to respect me as a man,"' Scott said. "So I don't know what Rondo said, but obviously Chris took exception to it."

The NBA may have to take a look at another play involving Paul from Monday's game. Al Harrington came up with a loose ball in a scramble after a New Orleans turnover with about 5 1/2 minutes remaining. Paul appeared to hit him in the head while they were on the floor fighting for the ball, but Harrington was able to maintain possession.

"When I dove, my head hit his knee," Harrington said. "He might have slipped a couple of jabs in there. It didn't affect me. You know I fight in the summer, so it's all good."

your views on Chris Paul… you reckon he's a stats player???

very obvious in games… "oh I would like to get assists, so i shall pass all i want this quarter"

and next quarter… "oh i want some points, let me shoot a lot this quarter"

and the next "i want some rebounds, let me get all the rebounds"..
