Kobe Bryant. Kevin Durant. Now, Kevin Garnett. The NBA regular season hasn’t even hit the halfway point and Garnett has become the third player to get into it with Dwight Howard. Nearly midway through the first quarter of tonight’s game between the Houston Rockets and Brooklyn Nets, KG and Howard got tangled up a little bit. It seemed like a harmless foul, but things escalated pretty quickly. A push by Garnett turned into a retaliation shot by Howard and then things got out of hand.

The Atlanta Hawks were previously having trouble with fan attendance so they’ve done several different promotions to entice people to come to the games. One promotion they held was “Swipe Right Night” sponsored by Tinder. If you don’t know, Tinder is a “dating” app (really used for people to hookup) where it tells you what other Tinder users are in your vicinity and if you like their picture you can “swipe right” to try to create a match. If both parties agree to a match based on the most superficial of qualities, well then you take it from there, but we know what happens next. Anyways a Twitter user asked the Brooklyn Nets why they didn’t host a Tinder night as well and they had the perfect response.
