    Punches thrown. Kandi threw a half punch/half shove, Nene countered with a roundhouse and a few more.

    Hey Detroit, notice how we didn't riot?

    I'd be surprised if it were for a month, but you may be right. Big Scotty Brooks got a couple of punches while trying to break it up.

    2 Dumbasses being silly. I don't see them getting over 5 games a piece.

    On the plus side it woke me up during an other wise less than thrilling game. I'll be watching more closely now.

    I had Nene dumped from my fantasy team by the time ESPN got to commercial.

    I wouldn't. The league is gonna be setting examples after the DetRiot incident. The amazing thing is, like the announcers pointed out, they were going at it for a few possessions. This is where the ref is supposed to step in, call a stupid foul and tell them to both cool it.

    Nugs fans won't do anything. And Spree is a b*tch.

    Hatred from the playoffs last year. It was a nasty series.

    When did the NBA let women start playing? Some of these haircuts are ridiculous.

    Spree is a punk. Possibly my least favorite player in the NBA. Then again, I feel about the Timberpussies the way that Rockets03 feels about the Spurs. Yes, that much hatred.

    we were playing HOld Em and (the game wasn't entertaining at all) we loked up and realized what was happening.

    Got a little more interesting for the next few min before we tuned out.

    LMAO

    I hate Minnesota a lot, too. They sure act like they are the **** even though they have only gotten out of the Western Conference 1st Round one f*cking time in the last 7 or 8 seasons.

    Wolves lose Kandi
    Devner lose Nene

    Advantage? Wolves! (since Kandi is worthless to begin with)

    My guess is they will get the normal penalty for punching. TRUE the NBA wants to send a messgae, but at the same time there are precedents here for punching like what we saw. If Stern/NBA put TOO heavy a penalty on those guys, something that is much harsher than what has been given in the past, then Billy Hunter of the Players Union would protest and would win.

    Wow. This is going to hurt Nene's trade value - he's already been picking up a rep for having temper issues.

    Kandi man being suspended will probably help the Wolves. If only KG could have convinced Wally to pull a Stephen Jackson!

    I'd assume both get suspended for 3 to 5 games.

    Stern won't go Stalin on all fights, just incidents involving players and fans.

    How come Kandi didn't start and neither did Sczerbiak and where is Cassell? And why did Carter start over HudsoN?

    Hahahaha!


    You know, the one thing that I don't understand about KG is why he isn't knocking the teeth out of players like Kandi and Spree in practice instead of Rick Respert? He oughta be chewing a hole out of both of those idiots. Instead he's punching Rick Respert and going after Wally all the time. I love KG but there is absolutely no reason for that team to have the record that they do right now. He's just not showing a whole lot of leadership in my opinion.

    My thoughts exactly. Then again, Spree is a nut and Kandi isn't to sane either, so maybe he's steering clear of those guys. Kandi is such a waste of talent. He has the talent to be a Top 5 center but couldn't really care less. He's the Benoit Benjamin of this era. And Sprewell is more concerned with whining about a contract extension then winning an NBA championship.
