No matter whose side you’re on here, the controversy surrounding this play really shows how much the NBA has changed over the past few years. Those types of plays just really don’t fly anymore.
As for Allen and Young, it seems they could be the source of the NBA’s next big rivalry. We might have to circle the date of their next meeting…
