    Don't know what Z did to get ejected. Wall deserves to be suspended for a long time imho

    Why does he deserve to be suspended for a long time?

    I like this, Wall is usually calm and collected. It nice to see some intensity and reaction out of this kid. He has the talent to be one of the best players in this league. If his the competitor I think he is, he will remember this moment and in a year or two when his body matures more. He will have a Dunk facial waiting for Big Z...

    Also we don't know what went on prior to this play, so maybe this was a build up to a previous play or hard screen that Big Z had put on John Wall.

    crawford isn't exactly out there getting everyone involved. before this game, in march he was averaging 16.7 points while taking 17.4 shots. to take that many shots while being that inefficient is pretty bad.

    Because he punched a defenseless guy in the ribs?

    Well I understand him being suspended but not for a long time.

    HAHA...WTF was Wall doing? Big Z didn't do anything out of character?

    Howard and McGee would have been interesting.

    LOL yeah you are right, he's shooting at like 37% this season, small sample but still. I guess this is what TWill will be like he we let him have 30 mpg.

    Wall knows he would get his butt kicked by Ilgauskas, just frustration I guess...

    Looks like Wall overreacted.

    Z was lucky. Wall didn't get a chance to power up.

    Lol @ Wall. I'd hate the CHeat but I'd put good money on Z being able to beat the living **** out of him easy.

    McGee to me looked like he was trying to break it up (probably figured that if there were a fight, Wall would get his ass whopped). Good call by the refs to not kick him out.

    Long time? Andrew Bynum gets 2 games for cheapshotting a guy who is on the air. What Wall did was nowhere near that bad. 1 game max.

    Dude got 7 assists a few games back, Im pretty sure he has had a few games with 5 assists or more. Yeah He and T-Will need to improve their shooting and get smart on their shot selection.

    He landed a clean punch to in the ribs, that's definitely worth multiple games. Just because he's smaller he shouldn't get leeway. If Chuck Hayes landed a clean shot to Steve Nash midsection you better believe the league is dropping the hammer, I'm saying just be fair all around.

    Check Wall after the punch. He didn't want to make eye contact with Z and went stone-faced real quick. Looks like he was trying to hide the fear there.

    Yeah, a thrown punch is always at minimum one game.
    Don't think it'll take him out the rest of the season though.

    Are you guys blind? Z definetely elbowed him straight to the throat/chin area at least twice. Throwing elbows is also a 1 game suspension.
