    Does Matt Barnes get suspended for his throw down of Harden?

    Whiteside got suspended for throwing down Olynyk a week ago. So there is a precedence for a suspension, like when Wade kicked Sessions which was the precedence for suspending Harden for his kick on Lebron (by NBA front offic logic).

    We really need Dwight back. I think we will hover around the 3rd or 4th seed until he is back but he needs to get back into having chemistry and rhythm with the team.

    All in all, a very satisfying win.

    whiteside didn't throw olynyk down, he elbowed him in the back of the neck. You can kill someone doing that.

    I think a fine is the appropriate response. Nothing basketball about that play, but it wasn't the kind of thing where there's a high risk of injury either.

    but tapping someone in the balls has a high risk of injury right? Harden could have landed badly on his wrist or popped his shoulder on that fall.

    I'd say yes he does. His flagrant foul would get upgraded to a #2 imo.

    A dangerous throwdown. Probably a fine, suspension and hopefully jail time.

    That new and improved upper body strength of his has really been working. Has been able to extend his arms and hold them back.

    He grabs his face and launches himself to the floor almost clipping his own player. Ridiculously obvious flop, it was embarrassing to watch.
