For those of you who missed it, there was an emergency meeting of the NBA Board of Govrenors last night to install a new Slaughter Rule. The reason was the LAL beatdown of Cleveland. The score midway through the third quarter was 70-27. That's not a typo, 70-27 midway thru the 3rd. The end of the period saw the score balloon to 92-41. Final was 112-57. Cleveland scored exactly 1 more point than HALF of LAL and lost by 55 points.
The new Slaughter Rule reads (I'm quoting here): "When a game gets completely out of hand and one team is completely ripping the ass off of another, erupting in a volcanic beatdown, or using the other team's scrotums as fan give-a-ways, the game shall be stopped and the losing team contracted. This rule will also be invoked every time any team plays Cleveland, Sacramento or New Jersey"
