Perk screen good to go, dumbass JR Smith sucker punch needs to be suspendarama though. Maybe for the entirety of the playoffs. Chicken **** move.
I think Perk's screen was taken care of by the foul call in-game, but the fact that he basically threw a jab that connected with Crowder's face during the ensuing bro-down probably warrants some additional discipline. And yeah, Smith is a habitual offender so a long suspension is probably in order, but it is lebron's team, so we'll see.
Why would anybody be talking about it on a Celtics/cavs thread in the dish? Here's a 5 page thread on it in the GARM: http://bbs.clutchfans.net/showthread.php?t=264974
Agreed - I was thinking from just the punkness of the action, Perk did it to Crowder's face not a backhanded sucker punch. Smith wants to be a ghetto tough guy sooo bad but he aint bout that life. Hopefully gets a major suspension. It makes me miss real crazies like Ron Ron and Mad Max. Fake tough gives me a headache.

Weak suspensions for the Cavs. Smith gave a backhanded fist that connected in the face. Worthy of 5 at minimum. Perkins choked Crowder with an open palm. Worthy of one suspension.
this is a joke. Only two games for smith and 1 game for olinyk? What for? the guy was just tangled with klove... is not like he did want to dislocate his shoulder...
