Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela didn't mince words on Tuesday when asked about the physical nature of his team's first-round matchup against the New York Knicks.
Things got chippy in Game 4 in Atlanta with John Collins needing four stitches in his lip because of an errant elbow from a Julius Randle layup attempt. Randle later gave a forearm shove in retaliation for a perceived elbow in the back that Danilo Gallinari gave to Reggie Bullock.
Capela said those moves and the Knicks' style of play doesn't make them a physical team.
