As much as I would LOVE to see Cousins take care of him, I wouldn't want Boogie to get in trouble. And we all know that's what would happen. I don't think Allen will stop his trippin' ways until he does have his clock cleaned. I am not one to normally co done violence, but with Allen I could happily make an exception.
Uh, Draymond Green is the absolute worst. He makes Allen look like a choir boy.

Looks Like Utah
Jazz Guard Grayson Allen Will Continue His White-Privileged, Thuggish Ways in the NBA
Former Duke University guard Grayson Allen is all of the adjectives used to describe white basketball players who are relentless gritty, hard-nosed and scrappy. He’s been called a “real student of the game,” but Grayson Allen is also a term usually used to describe black men: thug.
For years, Allen has been one of college basketball’s dirtiest players. I wrote about his on-court thuggery and how Allen’s white privilege has prevented him from being properly disciplined.
Allen was coddled through his college career. His on-court violence was seen as a testament to his toughness. Despite having crossed the line several times, Allen was never properly reprimanded for his behavior. On Thursday, during a Summer League game against the Atlanta Hawks, Allen—playing for arguably the whitest team in the whitest place in the world, the Utah Jazz—appeared to be back to his thuggish ways.
First off, it’s a Summer League game. More than half of these players are going to be working at a Waffle House once the season starts. It doesn’t count towards anything. If you added winning every game in the Summer League with 50 cents, you’d still be about $2 short of a medium fries from McDonald’s.
Does any of this stop Allen from being a “gritty, hard-nosed,” spoiled, white-privileged *******?
Secondly, Trae Young had him beat on the play and there was nothing wrong with Allen fouling Young to keep him from getting the shot up. Where things started to get real “Grayson Allen-y” was his not moving his arm once he committed the foul and the shoulder to the stomach after Young gave him the “dude, get off of me” push.
And what did Jazz coach Quin Snyder have to say about Allen’s play? He apparently loves his tenacity on the defensive end, but added that his interaction with Young was a bad play by the rookie, Yahoo Sports reports.
Looks like Allen’s thuggish ways will continue in the NBA as he can’t even put the **** on pause during a Summer League game. At this point, I’m just wondering what adjectives announcers will use to continue to pamper his knuckleheaded behavior.
Whoa. I wonder how the writer REALLY feels about Grayson Allen. [laughing]
Allen is a little ***** but do we really have to make everything about race lol? (Not you, the author )
“White privileged” Lol... that idiotic term has lost its luster as well
Totally agree. I’m tired of the race thing on both sides. I judge people on their character and actions. I don’t tolerate racism from any ethnic group. Zero tolerance for it.
I felt the same way after watching it. I don't see what he did that was so bad.
C’mon quit wishing. Young the one who started it. Allen just was pushing back.
He needs to do that to a player like Larry Stamper and he would get packed out on a stretcher. That might teach him a lesson. The *** whipping is coming. I would guess sooner than later.
