Kurt Helin: "...Everybody was talking about Matthew Dellavedova during the Eastern Conference Finals. In Atlanta it was often with an adjective we will not run on this family-friendly site, after his run-ins with Kyle Korver (who had ankle surgery because of it) and Al Horford (who was thrown out of a game).
