He will get suspended, as will Fisher. Those were deliberate or premeditated acts not in the flow of action. That is far more important than whether someone used more force/more dangerous but in the flow of the game (e.g., Rondo). The only close calls for suspension will be Kobe or Artest (I suspect neither will be)--those other two acts are not close calls, the NBA has to slam the lid on those intentional retaliation plays.
Funny bc I remember after the Rockets-Suns scuffle that he said the only two that could fight was Shaq and Rafer. Now he claims Rafer couldn't fight. He also claim Rafer couldn't fight when he got in the face of Rondo and neither did anything. Charles is hilarious.
IF Rafer were in the game yesterday he would have threw a punch at Fisher after he laid Scola down. It would have been epic.
i'm glad somebody did something to the c's. between rondo and house, they have the dirtiest back court in the league. did anyone see what rondo did in the first round??? now house wants to play dirty too? good for rafer! i still got his back even though he is with another team. play ball
fa sho you already know. but according to CB, he's a lover not a fighter. still i would pay to see that.
That is the funniest things I have seen in a NBA game. Eddy House gets slapped upside his side (deserved it), then turns around like he is going to do something, and just stares at Rafer. For all that trash-talking, House is a b****.
Funny but stupid move by Rafer. I guess Eddie House thinks he's good now? Rafer should know better, though.
Raefer slapped someone so it should be legal because it was funny to me. Some of you guys sound like laker fans with your selective reasoning. I love Raefer bc of his time here but he was at least under control minus a couple episodes with Chris Paul but overall a good team player.
I've always wanted someone to slap House. Every time I watch him, the guy jumps around and celebrates after hitting an open 3 like he just hit a game-winning shot. It gets annoying especially when he's expected to hit that shot. Good Job Rafer!!

This is what happened, Rafer, yes, Fisher, yes, Kobe & Artest no: http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=4150159 The Rockets need to jump on the Lakers in game, don't let the young Lakers guards get any confidence.
If I'm Rafer, I'm thinking I didn't get my money's worth. He could have shoulder checked him for the same suspension.
