Classless and don't try to come with the bullshit apology after you were caught. Clearly hacked the hell out of Scola then like a classless punk stepped on his head deliberately and with malice.

Terrible.

Clean hard foul on the drive to the basket.

It doesn't look intentional to me, but then again, I'm probably biased as I'm one of the bigger K-Love fans here on this board. But given how I have seen him play for many years, I've never seen him intentionally cheap-shot a guy. I don't know what was in his mind when it happened, but it would be out of character with his past behavior if he in fact did do it on purpose.

Im a fan of K-Love as well too Kapono. Remember I am a Bruin alum as well. The stomp to the head was classless. It is very clear he did it with intent.

The foul on the drive was a clean hard foul I will give you that but the stomp to the head was just terrible and classless for a guy that I have a lot of respect for.

Everyone makes mistakes though. If any athlete will learn from their mistake and become a better person it is him.

Have been a big Love fan and haven't seen the play.....but based on what you're saying Lawson this is very disappointing....Brings back images of Marcus Vick stomping the opposing playing in the chest as he was laying on the ground.....

I'll look at the play and if it's as you're describing then it can't be dismissed as simply a mistake.....Mistakes are unintentional and without malice.....this doesn't sound like that......

Im just curious how the officials missed this. I mean if the league wants boring 88-76  games all the time a big reason why is the lack of fouls being called. I've seen crazy hacks and they let them play on, so basically taking the ball to the basket is a mute point, that to me even more than the condensed schedule is a reason the product is so terrible this year, they dont call fouls thus the games have been bloodbaths... 

On a side note i think he should be suspended 5 games by stern. It's incredible to me that he hasn't been yet...

And they wonder why scoring is so terrible this year. Its amazing but if u go to the hoop they give the defender a license to maul you and don't call fouls. Cuban was spot on with his analysis, its the main reason the product is borderline unwatchable.

I still don't see the intentionality in it... maybe it's my biased eye? There's no full extension or aiming of the foot from what I see

  Any other player and there would have been a fight, but Scola is a good player that respects the game and played the game all the way thru with no retaliaction. Punk ass move by Love.

 I am a Rockets fan so I believe it was on purpose he was clearly looking down when he was going over Scola.

 The video posted does not show Love looking down. I saw the game and you could clearly see him looking down, they showed it multiple times and angles.

Kevin Love is a true "Thug" for that shit.  I got no respect for this dude after that, they should suspend the guy for like 10 games, not just 2.

I guess he was listening to too much Pac or something?  "Thug Love"?

Man that ain't funny, but it just fit.  Kevin Love got issues, cause that was a bullshit move.  Can't do that to another man like that, that's wrong.
