Here's Metta World Peace Knocking James Harden Down with a Violent Elbow

Ron Artest, what are you thinking? So you dunked on Durant Ibaka. Great! Was elbowing James Harden in the head necessary? Some people will call this unintentional, but when Artest went to thump his chest, Harden was right there, and you can see the extra umph added to the backswing.

Then Ron Artest got into a fighting stance when Serge Ibaka approached him.

Harden had scored 13 points in 14 minutes, and left for the locker room.

Guess the Metta World Peace suspension. I’ll say 8 games.
