The broadcasters don’t do a great job of pointing out exactly what happened here, even after being shown the replay a couple of times. The best look at what Crawford saw comes at the very beginning of the video clip above in real time, where Paul runs to the paint and gives Marc Gasol a shot to the midsection while Gasol’s head is turned toward the basket.
It didn’t appear to be much, but the contact Paul made didn’t seem to be necessary, either. From where Crawford was standing, and given the fact that it had been a physical game that was essentially over with Memphis up by 14 and less than two and a half minutes to play, you can at least see the reasoning behind his decision to send Paul to an early exit.
I agree. Especially since Paul has nutpunched before.

I watched the highlights last night and I was thinking wtf how can people believe that wasn't a cheap shot. Especially considering marc gasol's stomach injury, although marc gasol is quite the cry baby.
Glad to see my two favourite west teams getting through in the warriors and grizz. The grizz just play so well, can see them making the finals. Can't stand the clippers. Happy they're gone
I think I'd rather see the Bulls win just because of the pressure it would put on Rose to come back. That dude is letting his team down hardcore. Espcially when half the team looks like they are playing half in the grave with injuries/sickness.

And the guy who ends up with the shot is joe johnson who's 2-13 now.
Yeah. Don't get me wrong, he's had a bad game, but it's not very fair when guys are passing up open shots and making him take a contested 3 with time winding down.
