He didn't lead head-head though. His head hit DeSeans chest.

Go to 1:06. he clearly hits the chest.

Oh ok. Yeah thats true. They need to be clear on the rule, wether its just helmet to helmet, or leading with your helmet, or both.

 

[Blake]

Didn't he hit Jackson in the chest?

 

[DJT]

Yeah, but he led with his helmet...which is not smart, and still can cause a really bad injury. For both players.

 

[Blake]

That's his own problem. Why be fined for risking your body?

 

[Blake]

You can tell by the hit, he was trying to lead with his shoulder, not his helmet.

 

[DJT]

Nah, he ducked his head and pointed his helmet right at the guy. He should be penalized because he could hurt people leading with his helmet like that.

Blake check the Fantasty BBall thread, if you haven't yet.
