Rondo’s punch was a lefty too. Impressive!  He hit Paul pretty squarely but it didn’t look like a full force punch with his legs behind it.

Paul’s hits on Rondo seemed a little harder as he was stepping in to them. He got one clean shot and one glancer.

Then Ingram got in a 7ft wingspan glancing blow on Paul.

I’d say Paul gave as good as he got. But he had to expect to get punched after poking Rondo so ha4 in the eye area.

Part of the reason why I love Rondo is because spitting on Paul is something I totally think he's capable of doing, whether or not he actually did it.

I'm surprised, a lot of you are saying "did he spit, I don't see him spit, I don't believe he spit..."

And I'm over here thinking, "ya that sounds like something Rondo would definitely do."

I was thinking Rondo did something before CP3 reacted. Rondo was there to instigate he was standing there in front of Paul and two other Rockets players. I thought that he had either said something or spat in Paul's face. I was  not surprised to hear Paul make that allegation. There is still no video evidence of it other than the circumstance of Paul wiping his eye orbit before he poked Rondo in the face.

Why rely on hearsay when there's hundreds of cameras in Staples? If it wasn't for Rondo's reputation, people would accept that the video doesn't show him spitting on CP3 instead of debating whether or not he's capable of it.

I kinda get Ingram pushing Harden like that... walking across Ingram's path waving his hand around asking for something from the ref without any regard to who is in the way.

Agree about LeBron though, he shoulda been holding Ingram back, not Paul.

this is why reputation and track record is important ..... Paul > Rondo in the integrity department.

let's forget reputation's and track records for a min. here. as I mentioned in my previous post I believe a confrontation between these 2 was long over due and inevitable.

Is he? Paul may have a better better public relations team, but he's no saint. I'm still not seeing why we should dismiss video evidence because Paul says so. Because that's a load of..... something.

CP3 eye gouging Rondo was dirty. Put let's make the narrative about something else.

yeah we live in a society now where reputation and track record outweigh proof anyway so what's the point of hunting down a video that might show the truth...

Seems like Rondo actually did spit on Chris Paul.

Doesn't bode well for Rondo.

Yeah, I don't know, I hate Harden, always complaining.. Look how he walks right into Ingram, doing the two fingers thing. Sure Ingram gets a tech for that, but I just understand his frustration
