    If it were up to me....50 games. And suspend Bynum 10 for being a bad influence.

    IMHO, though, he will only get 5 games, unless Stern/Jackson feel like flexing their Lakers-favoritism bones, at which point it will be 2-3.
    That blow could have easily ended Harden's career. It was as dirty as it gets, and if he got suspended for a long long time, noone could have reasonably objected that decision wasnt in the best interest of the league and the safety of its players.
    How is that worse than this?

    He has worked very hard to restore his good reputation and is very much well-loved in LA for his efforts. You want him out of the league for that incident?
    yep.

    Would you rather be elbowed in the side of the head, or hit with a hip check?

    Horry's play was dirty, tbh, but made to look a lot worse by Nash flopping like he'd been blown up by a grenade (coincidentally, if Nash doesn't flop like that, I don't think Amare gets off the bench, and the Suns go on to win that series). Hits like that happen all the time in the NBA....sometimes on moving screens which are called for a simple foul, other times on set screens which don't even draw a whistle. , that's a goddamn legal play in hockey. Horry got his two game suspension, and he probably deserved it considering the cir stances.

    Compared to swinging an elbow at a guys temple for no apparent reason and dealing out a concussion, though, Horry's foul was child's play. MWP deserves at least three games due to the severity of the foul, and will likely get more considering his history.

    10+ games for the elbow. A blow like that is no joke and could've done very serious damage. Since Ron's a Laker, he'll probably get 5 games, but if Stern values the image of his league, he needs to let the fans know behavior like that won't be tolerated and set an example by suspending Artest a significant amount games so that he'll miss the majority or all of the second round. Missing a few games in the first round in which the Lakers would be a massive favorite with or without Artest isn't punishment at all.

    That's it. 75. Wanna go for 100?



    Keep in mind that this opinion is slightly (read: very) biased due to my disdain for the Lakers.

    Not understanding the potential severity of an elbow behind the ear tells me you don't train in MMA.

    10-15 games yeah, 20 sounds like too much. Definitely going to hurt the Lakers with him being out, especially considering how he's played as of late

    Yes exposed and naked

    The fact that it was behind the ear is mute point...not like he said Ohh gee let me see let's go for behind the ear...dude ran up on Artest and got good value for his bravado in my opinion. And if Artest is going to be suspended regardless of the outcome I hope Harding suffers and suffers and suffers...its like Mike Tyson said after he got out of prison: "I wish I would have raped that "...for as bad as it sounds he's right...if the world is gonna brand you a rapist no matter what... then you ing right I wish I would have raped that too...

    Struggling to find the logic for a stiffer penalty on Metta World Peace for the mistakes made by Ron Artest…This is MWP 1st serious violation…He should not be held accountable for the sins of Ron Artest…I am told that even though MWP & Ron used to be friends, they rarely talk to each other anymore…

    David West got one game for punching Mike Miller in the back of the head from behind with no question as to intent. Pretty similar risk of a head injury with both plays. If that's anything to go by then MWP gets 1 + 1 extra game for being a repeat offender.

    That there at least looked like a vague attempt at the ball though.

    Another pathetic flop by Harden from a blow to the head. Nice Bosh-like delayed reaction.

    By this logic, Trayvon got what he deserved as well, since he ran up on Zimmerman. Tray-Tray's bravado in that instance was highly profitable

    Yup. MWP's psychiatrist took care of Ron Artest. He shouldn't have to bear the cross of another man's sins.

    Ron is a good dude...I think those if you who has never been exposed to other cultures are just a sensitive bunch. That's what makes me so versityle. I can identify with my s and the white culture...even with that ing Nuruto .

    What endeared me to Ron Ron is strange....after the brawl at the palace when the whole world was coming down hard on him he felt all alone...Phil Jackson was the only one who said he didn't care what Ron did he wanted him.

    Sadly Magic Johnson to my dismay said that Artest should be kicked out of the league and that he didn't deserve another chance...Artest told ESPN....and this is why I will always cut for him cuz he's real...he told ESPN:" Was Magic saying that when his wife gave him a second chance after he brought HIV home"...Magic never said another bad thing about Artest after that...

    What endeared him to you is that you both demonstrate more ape-like qualities than you do human-like qualities, so naturally you'd find him a kindred spirit.

    Don't spin. Tray confronted Zimmerman. Your logic dictates that people who confront other people deserve what they get, regardless if the reaction is disproportionate or not (as it was in both cases. Harden didn't deserve an elbow to the head for simply being near Artest when he was "celebrating" and Tray didn't deserve a bullet for stepping up to Zimmerman).

    Harden did nothing wrong. The only reason you're trying to find justification for the incident is because Artest is a Laker. Take a cue from your boyfriend luva and just celebrate it honestly and openly. You come off like a trying to "justify."

    The Clutter Bill is only enforced when the spam enters legitimate threads. Luva doesn't start legitimate threads, so anyone spamming his troll/bait threads is exempt.

    Now you're making progress. Just be blunt about it and say, " yeah, Ron. Harden. Sure he was in the wrong, but I don't give a !" If Ibaka sent Kobe to the hospital, you'd bet your ass I'd cheer, but what I wouldn't do is act like a got and try to justify. I'd just come out and say, " Kobe."
