That’s totally different to what Rapana did and you know it

No it's not. Both were watching the ball, and both ran straight through the legs of a guy jumping to catch it.

The "totally different" part is one took out a superstar and the other didn't.

lol no.

Rapana was running towards the ball and never took his eyes off it, the Warriors player jumped early from the side into Rapana’s path.

Thompson was running directly at Papanhuyzen, who jumped straight up as the ball was arriving and took his legs out.

Only someone truly stupid would even try to make the argument that they’re remotely similar.

Only someone truly stupid would argue that what Rapana did was ok and legal.

I’m torn between wanting the Knights to lose every game they play and wanting the Storm to lose every game they play.
