    In the NFL, Zeke had appealed his suspension and it got pushed back till late in the season. Do you think if Ariza appeals his suspension, the league can hold a hearing on Monday and he will be able to
    Play against Minny and Golden State?

    Just wondering if NBA has an appeals process towards suspension we can really use this right now because Ariza didn’t do much all he did was yell aggressively.

    Idk they should have gotten 1 game in my opinion. Green if he has to pay any fines or anything I’m sure the team will help out maybe harden will pay it.
    Ariza and green should have been able to play against the warriors
    If they got 2 games then Blake fake griffin should have gotten at least 1 game and Rivers too.

    I personally think that you do not want a short bench when you have two players returning from injury. Ideally you don't want them to play big minutes. This suspension forces D'Antoni's hand here. I'd either want the suspensions spaced apart or to appeal until Luc Mbah a Moute and Harden are healthy enough to play big minutes.

    I think that MDA and Moreeeeey should send a message back to the league offices and sit Harden and Paul with "injuries" during a nationally televised game. Heck, this coming Warriors game would be a good one. Or maybe the next Clips game (especially after the teams adds a goon to the end of the bench).

    I agree. Sit Harden out and Paul as well. Play scrubs and let the announcers talk about the incident all game since it will be a blowout. Let them talk about Blake and rivers not getting anything.

    I hope Dantoni will sit the team tonight and go with the vipers players as a protest.
    We need Harden to not play hard minutes, Paul needs a rest, Gordon to. Luc needs to be in a minutes restriction. We just got everyone healthy, dont push it Dantoni, I beg you.

    nope, those GS tickets cost hundreds of dollars

    Morey and MDA would be giving the middle finger to the fans who paid good money to go the game

    I wish they would try to pull some ish like that on Saturday...they’d better be prepared to give the fans a full refund if they decide not to go or 80-90% of the value of their tickets, free parking, and half off food and drinks with free re-fills if they do decide to go for some nonsense like that...

    Sitting their stars for a home game where the rockets jacked up their ticket prices sounds great.
