SIAP, searched and looked

quote:

A league review of the offensive foul Howard committed on forward Andre Iguodala late in the fourth quarter of the Golden State Warriors' Western Conference finals-ending victory over the Houston Rockets in Wednesday's Game 5 — ruled a common foul on the floor — should have been called a flagrant-1. A retroactive upgrade of the foul means increases the number of "flagrant points" that Howard accrued during the postseason from three to four — you get one point for a flagrant-1 and two for a flagrant-2, and Howard had already committed a pair of flagrant-1s in the postseason.

League rules stipulate that when you pass three flagrant points in the postseason, you've got to sit out your next game ... even if your next game doesn't come until next season.

His lack of suspension for game 5 made me feel all salty about ZBo's game 7 suspension from last season again...

Clint Capela will be an All-Star next year. I'm not even worried.

Was a no brainer. He has gotten away with a ton of F2s this postseason and they finally added up

What's sad is that there is no way the league would've suspended him if they had pushed it to game 6. It would've been rescinded
