However, if you can&#8217;t manage to wait the three days for all that action, you can just watch this NBA game between the Orlando Magic and Minnesota Timberwolves. Arron Afflalo from the Magic slung a crazy wide haymaker at Timberwolves forward Nemanja Bjelica on Tuesday night, then fell right into Bjelica&#8217;s standing guillotine.

We were hitting each other during the game, offense and defense, that&#8217;s part of the game. He took a swing on me and I was just trying to protect myself and to calm him down because he was wild. I don&#8217;t know what&#8217;s wrong with that guy. At that point, if you attack me like that I just have to protect myself. Everybody who knows me knows I&#8217;m like calm guy. I was raised on the streets but I&#8217;m a professional basketball player, I don&#8217;t ever fight during the game. I don&#8217;t want to feel like I&#8217;m the victim here, but I just tried to protect myself and I&#8217;m very happy. Thank God I react that way.&#8221;<\/em>\u00a0\u2014 <a href=\"https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/wolves-radio\/post18_bjelly_0116\">Nemanja Bjelica during the Wolves Radio post-game interview<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>This all happened in the second quarter of. To Bjelica&#8217;s admission, the two were getting into it throughout the game and it looks like Affalo just finally had enough after a rebound attempt. The punch was so wild it was really more like a forearm smash, but Bjelica&#8217;s guillotine was on point. Although, he later said he had no intention on hurting the rival player, but merely calming him down. NBA&#8217;s Orlando Magic ended up winning the game 108 to 102, but Bjelica would have won the fight if it had went down in the Octagon.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-video\" data-lang=\"en\">\n<p
