    Stern won't have a say in this.

    This is what Stu Jackson is for. He favored us previously because of his relationship with JVG. We'll see what he does.

    I will be surprised if Okur is suspended. The Rockets can take the Jazz in the series, the key will be the bench play. Landry, Harris, Brooks, Novak, and Head must contribute like they did during the streak.

    Okur should be suspended, but will he, that is the question. I mean he just flat out swung at Oberto's face from behind.

    It was a pure frustration foul and I can't believe the refs did not toss him out.

    Yes but they didn't and I doubt the league over rule it. It's the playoffs.

    That would be just our luck. Then again, we do a pretty good job on Okur. I would rather Harpring or Korver be suspended.

    And Williams is ailing, sore tail bone. He didn't play the second half against the Spurs. They were getting blown out, anyway.

    There's a joke somewhere in here. :)


    I just saw the replay of the Okur molestation. He should be suspended without question. That was clearly intentional.

    Yeah sure he is...wink wink.

    I guess his tail bone was sore from getting it kicked up and down the floor by the Spurs tonight.

    Don't suspend him, let him play and taste the wrath of our front court. I kinda wish we had Bonzi for this series cus I kinda want to see Bonz take Boozer out on a fight.

    I think it was more up to the Nuggets if they were going to suspend Melo or not,not the NBA, and you know the Nuggs werent going to do that. This flagrant is up to the League

    Guys, I am serious. He took a hard fall in the Denver game. I saw the replay. It looked pretty bad. He was interviewed before the SA game and said it was bothering him. Not making this up.
