Wade foul on Collison

Jason Smith foul on Griffin

Seriously, what's the difference? Wade should have been ejected and suspended two games just like Smith.. but that'll never happen..

Should be a 2 game suspension with Stephen A. and Bill Plashcke demanding a season long ban.

I would've LOL'd.

The Heat are already going to be in a fight for their playoffs lives against the Pacers. Without Wade/Bosh, I think the Pacers would even be favored to win the series.

He should be. But I doubt he will.

That was the same conversation everybody at my house was having during the game.

I expect Stephen A. Smith to call for a suspension later this morning. You know, it's only fair.

I could see a 1 game suspension. Stern's worst nightmare is Miami at home after the second round however. We will see if he has any integrity by the end of the day today.

How many games was Smith suspended?


If J-Rich got a game last year for simply putting his hand up to block ZaZa's headbutts.....then Wade definitely deserves a game. He could've hurt Collison with that check....

Eta: I could've sworn Smith had a fricked up spelling to his name. Thought it was "Smiht" or something

Because of his name. I dont even remember the refs reviewing it to see if it was flagrant 2 worthy. He won't miss a game, but he should.

Two games.

Along with SAS proclaiming on ESPN that he should be out for the season. SMH

Favoritism in the NBA makes it hard to watch sometimes.

Wade should miss 2 games. What a bitch.

Usually I would tend to agree.

But Wade made no play on the ball, on a clear-scoring opportunity. Should sit one game, If Collison would have pulled that shite on Wade it would be ATLEAST one game maybe two.

And just browsing the web this is getting ZERO play by the media.

THIS

First thing I thought of after this happened. David Stern and the NBA want to "punish" flopping, but if they don't suspend Wade they are doing exactly the opposite, because Collison didn't flop. If he would have jumped around like a fish out of water Wade might have got ejected.

I also just noticed on the last angle you can see some Miami fans start to cheer after Collisin went down. Seriously, I hate eveything about this Heat team minus Norris Cole.
