It looks bad, but I don’t think it was intentional. He was trying to get down the court, and scola’s arms were tripping him so he had to push off. It doesn’t help that he hacked him before hand though. I’m guessing he’ll get suspended, if only to warn other teams from getting too physical in this hectic season.

I dunno.

Obviously hard to say for certain but I would put my money on intentional.

Yeah, it looked like Scola intentionally tried to trip Love with his big ugly face.

Scola didn’t even get called for a foul. The officiating this year is horrible!

It looked comepletely intentional

I hate dirty plays, i.e. plays that could hurt somebody that aren’t part of the game. Buuuut… as far as dirty plays go that wasn’t too bad. He didn’t appear to kick him hard enough to actually hurt him. And Scola was flopping on the previous play and possibly that one. More of a dumb play than anything!

Love chopped him across the arms ...just short of the elbows

When Love lifts his left foot, he easily could have cleared Scola by stepping forward

like most people do, but he instead brings it back behind where his right foot is. Definitely seems intentional to me. Ever since the Rockets series, I’ve always been annoyed by Scola, but he is handling this in an exceptionally classy way:
