So, there's a reason rules against taunting are in the NBA: some people out there are offended by the idea of highly paid athletes acting really happy that they did something really incredible against other highly paid athletes. Personally, I don't have a problem with it, perhaps because of a childhood spent playing NBA Street Vol. 2.

But, um, is this taunting?

Lance Stephenson just kinda holds the ball and pushes it in the vague direction of Tony Allen's face.

Should Matt Barnes have been ejected from the game for this?

Should Jason Richardson have been kicked out of the damn NBA for this?

It's not even clear Stephenson was taunting as opposed to just kinda palming the ball. And if he was, he should have been given trick points.
