    yeh... Tyson is getting away with so much, and then crying and whining and crying and whining at everything. I swear he's become worse than Dirk. I know its playoff basketball and people get emotional, but the Mavs just seem like they're ENTITLED to get the favor of every call, and if they don't its MIND-BOGGLING. Geez.

    Agree, but.... if your opponent wants to resort to that crap, you shouldn't be afraid to resort to said crap as well.

    Wasn't a punch... he threw his elbows.

    Chandler made contact with his elbow.

    You know it. Mavsmoneyball can fire up the iPad for another article about how classless we are for booing an opponent.

    What's the game plan for fans tomorrow regarding Tyson Chandler? Boo when he touches the ball, at the free throw line, try to yell something more creative... "Chandler Sucks" etc.... enlarged posters of the punch, signs referring to the punch?

    Or just put is Dorsey for ONE minute and physically abuse him. No punches, or trying to injure him, just enough to send a strong message not to mess with us.

    Find a pic of his old tattoo that he had laser removed years back. Enlarge it and underneath it put "Poor Life Choices"

    Not surprised with the ruling but the lack of national attention to this is very disheartening.

    This isn't the first time that it feels as if the Rockets are getting the short end of the stick both by a league that claims to treat teams and its players "fair" and "to the rules" or by news outlets (cough ESPN, Yahoo Sports, etc.) who claim to have up to the minute updates concerning.

    While I tend to shy away from the notions that if a player like Curry or Lebron was in the position of Dwight was in on that play, the league and the news outlets would be much more proactive about it, cases like these really nail that "conspiracy" on the head to be true. Its pretty much accepted that players are going to be treated differently by this league and the news. Its unfair but it happens all the time.

    That's why it puzzles me when real knowledgable NBA people like Zach Lowe comment about how "uppity" Houston fans are about getting the short end of the "recognition stick." Its obviously happening, why pretend its not?

    True but you have to have restraint. If both Dwight and Tyson get tossed it's a win for the Mavs. To his credit Dwight hasn't taken the bait at all, even though their whole team has been trying.

    Man, for all the **** he's got for being stupid and mentally weak, he's said all the right things since he's come here. Hope he ****s on Tyson and the Mav's one last time in game 5.
