No they called a jab by Leddy that happens a hundred times in every game. Okay, announcers made it sound like that's what happened. He was getting mugged on the bench so a penalty against the Hawks was stupid.
I've never completely bought into the "most NBA teams coast in the regular season" thing. There are times when it appears the best teams get a little overconfident and sloppy when they play bad teams because their focus doesn't have to be there and bad teams can get pretty selfish but that's a part of why they are bad in the first place. I'm sure there are times when every team doesn't go 100% (including the Bulls) because there are a lot of games and non of them are THAT meaningful but I think the amount of times players and teams take it easy is a little overstated.
Even though ESPN hasn't had hockey in a long time now he's still the "voice of national broadcast hockey" for me and it's still weird for me to hear him do other sports.
