    Rafer took a cheap shot swipe at Nash when he was on the ground, he should be suspended at least one game.

    Should be interesting. Probably going to be some suspensions since this is the first real semi-brawl of the season and Stern has nothing else to do.

    It is my signature.....lol...

    And I don't hate the guy, I like his attitude, his professionalism, I just think he is a horrible PG.

    Hoping that the league doesn't come down on McGrady.

    Watching it all again, the way he shoves Nash to the ground looks pretty bad.

    Your point may not do it,Brooks is too fast,if he start with Yao,all the guys on the court should run much,that may run out Yao's energy quicker,I dont want to see Yao playing like a rookie yet.

    If you're going to get mad at tmac for pushing Nash, you ought to also be mad at Nash for running over and pushing Rafer.

    we need more justice,Barnes' push on Rafer should be an evil foul,but the referees missed it.Rafer want to get justice,all the guys run over will say they are mediating the quarrel

    On a slightly different topic, has anyone heard or read the outcome of league's review of Howard's intentional tripping of Yao during last Houston-Dallas game?

    Nope. But I heard from a Bulls fan on another board that Josh Howard tried to trip Ben Gordon on a fast break in today's game.

    Punk.

    Yea. If you really pay attention to the replay Nash ran over and grabbed Rafer. Then, he kinda slipped and Tracy was pushing him off of Rafer.

    I think we all know how Nash flops from the most minimal contact.

    If they suspend anyone other than Rafer and Barnes then they need to suspend everyone involved.

    The whole problem was that Barnes should have been T'd up in the first place for that cheap shot. Rafer did what he did because he had to; he couldn't just let that go. Then the refs ejected Rafer because they had to.

    If anyone's suspended, it should be Barnes. Played at full speed, that's a really scary hit.
