Not for nothing.... I don't know if the suspension is warrented. I mean granted we are talking about "Crazy Ron Ron".. but it was an elbow? Referees see what they wanna see.. Didn't Ginobili pop Ron Artest in the mouth on the opening play of the game. I thought Artest was bleeding if im not mistaken requiring stitches? Artest got the 1 game ban just because of his history.. IMO. If he wasn't viewed as the leagues "new" villian, or better yet had it been one of the "good/character guys" in the NBA... rest assured the NBA higher ups would have overlooked this 4 sure. NOT FAIR!

Leopard, not leapord--oops! (Too late at night!)
I didn't actually see the play, Jay. I just heard about it on nba.com. Ron will never get the benefit of the doubt based on his reputation.

Yes, Ron has this reputation and its the same old Ron regardless. He does not get the benefit of the doubt. Is it fair, no. But its real.

When we say he implodes its stupid $hit like this that does his team in.

He is a great player, but another year another playoff series he impacted.

See when it happened? When Ron was being frustrated by the Spurs and not playing well.

Frustration tolerance is a big thing fellas. Make a man kick a tv or go into the stands. Or make anoather call himself a Starbury. Or a coach say check out his record and mine.

Make me wanna holler throw up both my hands.
