According to Henry Abbott over at Truehoop, the possibility that Kobe will be suspended is zero: http://myespn.go.com/blogs/truehoop/0-40-31/The-Kobe-Bryant-Suspension-Watch.html
I don't know if this deserves its own thread, but apparently there are numerous articles out today that seem confident Artest will be suspended for Game 3, here is one of them: link I haven't seen that possibility even mentioned here, what do you all think?
And for those who think Lakers and Kobe get special treatment think again. Kobe was suspended for "flailing arms" a few years ago... riiiiiight.
Also, not to derail this thread but...is it a known fact that he actually raped this girl or is everyone just making jokes? I didn't follow the case much while it was happening. The last thing i heard was that there were multiple semens found in her underwear and the case was dropped. Is there a link where i can read the about the evidence introduced?
I just had an idea. I bet Kobe is sitting at home WISHING they would suspend him because I bet he is scared as **** to have to play Artest tomorrow. You know what, I don't want him to get suspended either, I can't wait to see how this plays out.
Was searching on google and found this very interesting, it was an article I think on Hoops Hype, not sure though

Has he ever to the opposition? He's not exactly the most loved player? I'm stoked 'cause this Lakers/Rox rivalry just got real. Game 3 is going to be off the hook.
Kobe has just asked for it. I hope he would meet with a lot of hard fouls from Game 3 onwards. Rox players have been too kind to him in the past 6 games (4 regular and 2 playoff).
you wanna know why the NBA won't suspend Kobe, read this article. If afterward you still think Kobe hit him in the neck, slip on a straight jacket. Analysis of Kobe Elbow
