Yep, Indiana should have one of their scrubs throw a running forearm at Lebron or Wade's neck/head, and we'll see if they get a bigger suspension than Pittman.

In general...people and the media, are more sensitive to this kinda stuff these days, especially with the growth of mass media, ETC. All it takes is Lance Stephenson, or whoever Having a serious injury and suing the league, then it opens the floodgates for everyone else who got injured on a possible cheap shot to sue.

It's the world we live in

Barkley won't tell you about the time he, Dr.j, Moses Malone, Mo Cheeks and the rest of the sixers put bird in headlock and fed him rights and lefts.

Dr. J vs Bird while 2 of the best PFs of all time hold. bird down

Chuck talking about it

pathetic that Metta's "flagrant" last night is viewed on the same level as Haslem and Pittman's

that's really inexcusable. I understand it's beating a dead horse, but it's time the officials start paying fines and being suspended for doing incredibly terrible jobs on these kind of things.

The non flagrant 2 call on Haslem tonight was inexcusable. Didn't really change the outcome of the game, but it's the principle of it. He should have been thrown out

dennis rodman, bill laimbeer, ewing, PJ brown, alonzo mourning, barkley, anthony mason, hell the entire 1990's ers pistons, heat, knicks, and pacers say hello welcome to real big boy basketball. IF you can't handle the pushing, shoving, and fouling then go to the CBA or overseas.

that is how playoff basketball should be played. this is good for the NBA

I get what you're saying and that fouls like that were common in the 80's and 90's, but with the way this series has been officiated how is that not a flagrant 2? It was much worse than the foul by Hansbrough (which by your standards probably wasnt even a flagrant) or Haslem.

They definitely went soft, not sure what that has to do with Larry Bird being a thug though.

LeBron is the man.

It's a shame he has to be on the same team as all of these other scrub, low-life, dirty players.
