He should be suspended 1 game! If Dirk had done that to him, you know he would be suspended, just look at Kirilenko in Utah and his elbow didn't even land!

RIDICULOUS!

So when does Dallas get the extra free throw now that it's been upgraded to a flagrant foul?

Doc said:

If they actually suspend someone during the playoffs it would hurt the game. That's what it's all about isn't it. Who cares that kids wanting to play basketball learn these bad habits and play dirty basketball, football or any other professional sport. Okay media, you've always got something to say about everything else. Lets push for reforming sports and get them to play from the heart and not like thugs.
