Chris Paul & Rajon Rondo Talk About Their Fight!

Chris Paul & Rajon Rondo Talk About Their Fight! Los Angeles Lakers teammates Brandon Ingram and Rajon Rondo and Chris Paul of the Rockets were suspended without pay Sunday for an on-court fight, with Paul taking the heaviest financial hit. Ingram was suspended four games, Rondo will sit out three games and Paul two games. This Chris Paul's fight with Rajon Rondo might be biggest and first ever on the Staples Center floor on the opening season. The Chris Paul vs. Rajon Rondo competition has been going on for a long time, as both of them are trying to compete to be the one of the best point guards in the NBA. The NBA handed down the punishments a day after the incident in the fourth quarter at Staples Center. The penalty was costliest to Paul, who has the highest salary of the trio and was fined a total of $491,782. Paul is president of the NBA Players' Association. He began serving his suspension Sunday night and wasn't at the arena when the Rockets lost to the Clippers 115-112. Rondo will be docked a total of $186,207, while Ingram's total is $158,816. Ingram and Rondo will start their suspensions Monday night when the Lakers host the San Antonio Spurs. The league said Ingram was suspended for aggressively escalating the altercation and throwing a punch in the direction of Paul, confronting referee Jason Phillips in a hostile manner, and instigating the overall incident by shoving Rockets guard James Harden. "It is what it is," Harden said. "I don't know how to decide how many games." Eric Gordon, who started in place of Paul against the Clippers, defended his teammate, saying, "If somebody is attacking you, you got to somewhat protect yourself." Rondo was suspended for instigating a physical altercation with Paul, and spitting and throwing multiple punches at the Rockets star. Paul was suspended for poking at and making contact Rondo's face and throwing multiple punches at him. "We don't want this to happen again," said NBA executive vice president Kiki VanDeWeghe, who handed down the penalties. "(We are) sending a clear message that this is not acceptable behavior and you cannot do this. So in this particular instance, the multiple-game suspensions are pretty severe both to their teams and financially to the players." The suspension to Ingram is the longest for an on-court incident since April 2012, when Metta World Peace of the Lakers received seven games. World Peace elbowed Harden, who was then playing for Oklahoma City, in a game also at Staples Center to earn that penalty, the irony being Harden is the one who Ingram fouled to start Saturday's fracas. ● Chris Paul was traded to the Houston Rockets from the Los Angeles Clippers in exchange for Patrick Beverley, Sam Dekker, Montrezl Harrell, Darrun Hilliard, DeAndre Liggins, Lou Williams, Kyle Wiltjer, a future first round pick, and cash considerations back on June 28, 2017. ● Chris Paul had been starring in numerous State Farm Insurance commercials since 2012, and since then he has become one of the most recognized faces outside of the basketball industry. Paul has the second highest career player efficiency ratio among active players behind only LeBron James (he ranks sixth all-time). He added Spalding to a large endorsement portfolio that also includes Nike's Jordan Brand, State Farm Insurance, Panini, FanDuel, Kaiser Permanente Health Care, and Tencent. ● Harden repaid the Houston Rockets with the best season of his career, becoming the first NBA player to score 2,000 points and assist on 2,000 points as well. Adidas made Harden one of faces of its NBA campaign when it inked the point guard to a 13-year deal in 2005 that pays as much as $200 million. Harden's unique style and strong play have made him one of the NBA's most marketable players. Harden's endorsements and partners include Adidas, State Farm Insurance, BBVA Compass, Beats Electronics, Electronic Arts(EA), New Era Cap Company, Trolli Candy, Foot Locker, BodyArmor, and NBA 2K. Harden is also the cover athlete in EA's NBA Live 18 video game. #nba ► Explanatory commentary narratives & subtitles by JimmyBallers20 ► Visual special effects and video editing created with CyberLink PowerDirector & Adobe Premiere Pro ► Music used by JimmyBallers20 are from YouTube Audio Library Images and Videos used by JimmyBallers20 are commercially licensed by StoryBlocks
