Kenyon Martin insists his hit on Karl Malone that resulted in the league imposing a one-game suspension, was nothing more than a hard foul. And the penalties are not going to change the way he plays, which includes giving hard fouls.
"It was a hard foul. I wasn't trying to hurt nobody. [But] the league didn't take it that way," said Martin, who last night here against the Cavs served his ban for his flagrant penalty II foul. "That's the way I play. That's me. I'm still not going to stop being aggressive for anything. That's just the way I play."
