    Indifference, you're proving my point that a precedent has been set to suspend players. I may have been wrong when I said that the league won't suspend "game changing" players, but it's definitely true for the superstar like a KG, Kobe, LeBron, etc.

    So please, tell me why KG shouldn't be suspended like you said earlier.

    Kobe did get suspended last year for giving forearms after shots

    Amare last year - game changing I would say so. KG shouldn't be suspended as he didn't do anything to deserve a suspension. Got to run - I hear good vibrations in the background - feel it - feel it.

    SHOW COUNT: (170) 1990's=3, 2000's=53, 2010/20's=114, US=124, CAN=15, Europe=20 ,New Zealand=4, Australia=5
    Mexico=1, Colombia=1

    ok, Amare's situation was different than KG's and the league made a stand on it last year....Perkins and Williams should be suspended because they did the same as Amare.

    KG gave Pachulia a hard forearm and then pushed the ref to break free from him, both of which have gotten other players suspensions in the past, so KG should have been suspended.

    Maybe it doesn't deserve a suspension, but based on the past and the way the league has tried to become more strict, it most definitely deserves a suspension.

    I guess we'll agree to disagree.

    KG wouldn't have been suspended for anything other than the ref incident. I saw nothing wrong, but to each his own. I thought the refs were already doing a terrible impersonation of a monkey fucking a football.

    Anyways, if they did the mandatory suspensions for the bench clearing incident I'd be happy. The Hawks would lose more than the Celtics and I am pretty sure that the Celtics could win at home even without KG in that situation.

    Bring it on chumps.

    IF Detroit decides to play and stay focused, they'll give Boston a hard time. But as the season showed, Boston was the better team, it's the playoffs now so we'll see.

    And Markymark you said that the nba doesn't have the balls to actually suspend a game changing player during the playoffs, this is the point being argued, so the "situation" surrounding the suspension doen't matter. I'm pretty sure that Indifference gave enough examples of the league suspending "game changing players" to prove a point. Now you can argue what "game changing" means to hold on to being right.

    Go Detroit!
