    Kobe is one of the most humble, modest, and classiest guys in the NBA. All of his teammates, past and present love him. Kobe is a genuine father and husband.

    Of course not.

    If Ron elbowed Kobe during a rebound the LAPD would file assault charges and put him in jail for the night though.

    Will he? No

    Should he? Yes

    Dwight Howard got suspended for basically the same thing but we're talking about Kobe and he plays in LA

    Maybe the poll should have four options:

    Yes, and he deserves to be.
    Yes, but he doesn't deserve to be.
    No, but he deserves to be.
    No, there's no reason to.

    Heck, Kobe can rape a girl in Colorado and not go to jail, why would the NBA suspend him for an illegal elbow?

    Do you think that would also be their response if in that incident Yao was Kobe and Kobe or Gasol was Artest? :confused:

    If Yao had done it the statement would be:

    "We have reviewed the tape of the incident and have determined that the facts of the case merit an indefinite suspension. It is clear based on the video evidence that the player in question was attempting a violent and premeditated act against his defender. His defender was in a defenseless position and had his life jeopardized. We have contacted the LA District Attorney about possible criminal charges."

    According to the rule, Kobe should have been immediately ejected. If the nba suspends kobe, then they would be admitting that they let him play the rest of game 2 when he should have been tossed out. if fisher doesnt get a suspension, i am going to poo in stu jackson's dinner.

    This thread is not necessary! We all know that douchebag won't get suspended. After all, it was Artest's throat fault.

    Burn! I have lost all respect for Kobe as a professional athlete, not because he's a rapist but because he's bruce bowen's clone.

    no, yao has gotten people with elbows up high plenty of times, but he gets away with it (the suspension/ejection, not the foul) because he is so tall there is nothing he can do, his elbows are eye level with the player he turns, it happens
