RE:Fortson suspended 3 games
Forstsen is known for this kind of play. I think I read on another post that he had 8 flagrant fouls in one season, EIGHT!!! That's a flagrant foul every 10 games. Flagrant means no intent to make a good defensive play. It means putting a hit on a player with no regards what so ever to the player he does it too.
He's big and he can run, and he's in there to play rough. He has no other skills.
He's damn lucky nobody has been seriously hurt. There's no room for this kind of play in hoops. What if every team incorporated a thug type player to bang on the other teams players, in turn chancing an injury each time? Then it happens to one of your key players? There's no reason a player needs to play like that. It's not good hoops.
