I'm going to assume you don't really follow basketball, and if I'm incorrect in this assumpation than I apologize. However if you do follow basketball, that is a clear flagrant foul. The ball was out of the player's hands at that point, and that Chinese player has a lot of mass on him, that contact is deceptive in the sense that it doesn't look like much; but having that much mass jumped into you, especially when the GT player is quite a bit smaller can be jarring. However, I don't think it was so much as the contact as the clear no call there from the ref that was RIGHT there. Especially when at that point GT has been called for many fouls all game long, and the Chinese team was not.

No I agree that this is a hard foul.

I'm not going to comment on this incident as a whole because I don't want to get into that. But I'm addressing those people (like the person I'm quoting) that are exclaiming the Chinese player intentionally kneed the GT player's (side / torso / groin / whatever else they came up with) because that isn't what happened. I got a little annoyed by that.

Looks like a hard foul by the Chinese player leading to the American player to respond with a shove. Probably didn't merit a return shove, but with tempers flaring and bias reffing the American player probably was starting to get upset.

Ultimately started with a shove from the Georgetown player, whose aggressiveness was probably stemmed from the horribly one-sided reffing. Shitty behavior from everybody but if I had to place blame it would go Refs>>>>Shover>Chinese player mob.

All else aside, I find it hilarious that people keep pushing the "GROWN MEN BEATING UP COLLEGE KIDS" angle, even though the American college basketball players tend to be, and Georgetown's team included, basically the same size/bigger than Asian people lol -_-

Asian people in general, sure. Professional Asian basketball players?! Ummmm, not necessarily. Chinese have some very tall ball players.

Watch the video, they're generally the same size, if not a bit in favor of the GT players. Not every Chinese player is a Yao Ming xD

@ Edit: This is nothing about how the Chinese had a right or something cause they were smaller lol of course they were retarded. But it's dumb to paint this as a bunch of grown men eating up on like 12 year olds or something.

The melee was the latest instance of on-court fighting by China, whose players have been fined tens of thousands of dollars by the world and Asian federations for scrapping with opponents.

Bayi is very lucky that they were playing a team like Goergetown. Being a follower of College sports, there a great many more teams that would have literally stayed on the court and beat the shit outta everyone of those Chinese players. Regardless of what coaches could do.

Hell even in the Big East, I bet Syracuse and Pitt would have started using chairs too. Shame to see that really. But I guess this means that Georgetown won't be taking their summer trips to China anymore, Europe here they come.

From the ESPN article:


I liked the end of the video with the Bayi player sitting on top of the GT player repeatedly punching him like an MMA match. I guess we should wait to see more of how the game developed, but with those calls I somehow doubt Bayi was playing fair. And drawing a John Thompson team into a fight? Doesn't seem normal.



Seriously. If that was Pitt or god forbid a Calipari team, that kid in the khakis would be eating through a tube tonight. I could see Demarcus Cousins chokeslamming someone.
