The NBA is reviewing three plays from Wednesday night's games in order to determine if further penalty should be taken. "The plays are under review," NBA spokesman Tim Frank said. Derek Fisher bowled over Luis Scola as the Houston forward was setting a pick, which led to a Flagrant Foul 2. A suspension for Game 3 is under consideration. Kobe Bryant elbowed Ron Artest as the two were angling for position on a rebound. If a player elbows another player above the shoulders, it is an automatic suspension by the NBA. Replays appeared to show Bryant's elbow striking Artest on his upper chest, just above the "R" on Artest's Rockets jersey. In the Magic-Celtics game, Rafer Alston slapped Eddie House on the back of the head following a three-point shot. Via ESPN Are you kidding me ??? The 'R' is on the rigth side and he hits him definetly above his chest so they can be lying anymore than they have already done ??
There's no way an elbow in the chest made Ron react like that. But regardless, there was no chance of Kobe being suspended. Maybe now that he knows the league is watching him he'll quit playing like a scumbag? Then again, he is Kobe, so no chance of that either.
Ok maybe the elbow was on Ron's upper chest. HOW THE **** WAS THAT A FOUL ON RON??????? If they didn't make that bull**** call on Ron, we won't react the way he did. Yea call that Playoff physical game, but **** Kobe gets rewarded for the elbow??? Ron took a elbow and called for a foul. What the **** was that?
