    Miller suspended one game for tantrum at end of loss


    February 10, 2005

    NEW YORK (AP) -- Sacramento Kings center Brad Miller was suspended one game by the NBA on Thursday for throwing a brief tantrum at the end of the Suns-Kings game earlier this week.

    Miller threw his headband and wristbands and yelled at the officials after they did not call goaltending on a last-second shot that was blocked by Phoenix's Amare Stoudemire in the Suns' 125-123 victory. NBA vice president Stu Jackson cited Miller for ``improper conduct'' and ``verbally abusing a game official'' in announcing the suspension.

    Also, Kings guard Mike Bibby was fined $15,000 for yelling at officials, Cuttino Mobley was fined $15,000 for publicly criticizing the officials, and Kings forward Chris Webber was fined $10,000 for kicking the ball into the stands.

    Miller served his suspension Thursday night as the Kings played the Seattle SuperSonics.

    Ouch!

    I saw Cat lashing out during the after game interview & couldn't help but thinking if NBA will suspend him. But IMHO, $15 grand is way too much.

    :eek:

    Moss *ahem* Cat says What's 15 grand to me?

    ;)

    If I was playing in the NBA and refs would make bad calls (like they do every single Rockets game) I would've used up my yearly salary by the end of the season

    Miller is dirty playing, cheap shot cry baby. In my mind he is shaping up to be Karla Malone's successor in the cheap shot....

    I'm glad Amare got the block

    They had every right to be angry.
