Cheap shot

The infamous clothesline that Kevin "Chicken Shit" McHale executes on Kurt Rambis. Kurt is angered and goes after McHale who runs away. He is only prevented from putting the hurt on McHale by his team mate, James Worthy. Surprising reaction considering that Kurt looks very meek and geeky. No flagrant? Insane for such a blatant foul... there was no attempt to even strip the ball. You would never ever see that nowadays... you get free throws for the slightest touch nowadays. Bball is no longer a man's game... gone are the days where "no blood no foul".

Still feel that McHale deserved to be ejected. The Lakers had the momentum before that foul but lost their concentration and subsequently lost the game as well as the series. The cheek.. the Celtics were still arguing with the ref after the incident.
