Late in the third quarter of tonight’s Game 4 matchup of the NBA Finals, Warriors forward Zaza Pachulia took a blatant shot at Cavaliers guard Iman Shumpert.
Facing a large deficit at the time, the Warriors seemed to be playing a bit dirty. On a loose ball play, Pachulia and Shumpert both dove to the floor, fighting for the rock. As the two players jostled about, Pachulia took two direct jabs at Shumpert’s groin area.
