"he may have had to stretch, I don't know." Gerald green said. "I ain't no snitch so I don't know. That's not something I grew up being apart of. Where I'm from they know snitches get stitches. So I don't know."

Haha, Green trying to avoid getting listed in Rondo's black book like Ray Allen.

Saw it when it happened, but since it was a quick view I didn't think much of it. But at the time I thought to myself... "hmm, I think Rondo did something weird there".

His explanation for it is a good attempt at excusing it away but evidently not good enough lol.

From his explanation the "stretch" sounds almost involuntary.

Any Doctors reading this thread? Could this be true?

While I'm happy to see "Playoff Rondo" back, I hope he's telling the truth here.

He's been around d wade too much

He was looking directly at Crowder while he extended his leg.  Clearly intentional and a seriously lame "stretching" excuse.

I agree with a ban from the bench at least for 1 or 2 games.
