There is no doubt that both Haslem and Pittman should be suspended. I don't know if the league will do that or not though. I thought Hansbrough's foul was ok and not a Flagrant because he actually went after and actually hit the ball.

IMO, Hansborough's was a Flagrant 1. Both Haslem and Pittman's were Flagrant 2. They should both be suspended for a game or two.

Again, so what? What are you trying to argue?

I agree that Wade should have been suspended for his game 2 action and it is a bit of a double standard. However, the TNT crew said Artest should have been suspended for dropping the knee on Westbrook's groin(which I don't agree with) so Artest doesn't always get unfair treatment. Keep fighting the fight though. It's cute

Shaq on UD's foul: "I respect U.D. for sticking up for his teammates. That is old-school basketball like we used to do."

Psycho T was going for the ball. It was just a hard foul. Haslem and Pittman obviously retaliated. Since this isn't the old school NBA and Haslem gets suspended its just stupid. I understand them wanting to send a message because the Pacers have been so physical. However, Haslem is too valuable especially with Bosh out. Obviously, no one cares about Pittman or Stephenson and he probably deserved it. Life lesson.

It's not unfortunate, it's economics. The NBA isn't a not for profit organization. They make money because of their star players. It shouldn't surprise, nor upset, anyone that they protect their most valuable assets. Any business would do the same.

BTW I hope Haslem doesn't get suspended. It wasn't that bad. Pittman's play made Artest look good.
