Game 6 will definitely be interesting... nothing would please me more than to see David West get his ass whooped by someone.
Hansborough I don't think should miss any time, maybe a fine at most, but his wasn't that bad IMO.
If it was regular season, Haslem should definitely get suspended and fined. Being the post season, I would say a fine would suffice, but wouldn't rule out a suspension.
Pittman should be gone for 5 games, minimum. I would say 10 games. Although I think it was funny what he did, because Stevenson got what was coming to him. Scrubs who get no PT shouldn't be running around talking like that, then issuing a fake ass apology once you realized what a dumbass you are, and that the next time you play, you will probably get KTFO.

I want to flagrant foul stretch in the face
Pacers have done some pretty lame in the series, but tbh a lot of what Miami does has precipitated it. And I think it's one of the first true times a team has physically called them out on it. The Heat flop excessively, and because they have two of the best players in the league, they get favorable calls from flopping. I'm surprised more teams don't do cheap to them. And as much as Granger is a big pussy for his antics, he's also right to call out LeBron for trying to subtly throw elbows when he's fouled. Twice in the series when Granger has fouled LeBron, LeBron tried to disengage with leading elbows to Grangers head area. But neither connected, and really didn't come close. But that's the type of I would definitely be pissed at too if it were happening to me. I think the Pacers are playing on the edge of dirty specifically because of the way the Heat play.
Boston series got physical last year, just not to the extent of cheat shots and fake tough guy acts like the Pacers pulled. Against the Pacers, Miami fought back and sent a message. Don't think that will be needed with Boston.
Fake tough guy act or not by the Pacers, the Heat exhibit a lot of pussy actions themselves. And I think that's why the Pacers have played that way.
Seriously, what's to stop Bird from sending the message down the line to put in someone to viciously take out Wade or Lebron's knees? I really don't think the NBA wants to go this route. This is why the NHL has fighting, so no one gets hit in the head with a stick. Without an outlet, this is going to get ugly.
Man the Heat. The Lakers are innocent compared to that dirty ass team.
How does a guy with an absolute vicious and violent history like Artest get only 7 games for one of the most vile elbows in the history of the game and someone with no history get equal to that for something that was no worse?
The fact that Harden was extradinarily lucky not to be severely hurt doesn't mean the intent wasn't there and that it wasn't every bit as violent. If Artest (which Stern admitted his history was taken into consideration) only got 7, a guy like Pittman with zero history of violence should get no more than 3.
i also want to flagrant foul dpg on a fast break layup attempt at utd
Yeah DPG needs an elbow to the throat to see how it feels. Maybe he'll change his mind about how serious that flagrant was.
Concerning Haslem:
1) Who goes for a block with both hands?
2) If he was truly going for the ball, as a professional player, how'd he miss by that much?
3) Why Hansboro? Because Hansboro fouled Wade.
Concerning tman:
1) If he had his back to him (in an attempt to "block out"), I'd tend to give him a pass on his physical play. The elbow could have been considered blatant.
2) But no... he was facing the guy, didn't attempt a "basketball play," sized him up, then delivered a forearm shiver.
3) Like Haslem, why Stevenson? He could have done that to anybody else.
4) Then he winked twice.
StuPid Jackson will throw the book at them both. 7 games each seems appropriate for both players. In order for players to feel safe competing with these two thugs they should have to sit. Not 1. Not 2...but 7 games.

Haslem y tman debe ser suspendido por siete partidos cada uno!

haslem being suspended a game wouldn't be the end of the world anyway..he's not that crucial like he was to the 06 team. nobody gives a about udonis ing haslem in 2012 dude's like 32 years old.
last year was our chance and we blew it, stern has lost favor in our team and he's doing everything in his power to prevent us from winning it
NBA = F

The NBA will suspend Miami's Dexter Pittman for 3 games, league source tells Y!Adrian Wojnarowski@WojYahooNBA
The NBA has suspended Udonis Haslem for Game 6 of the Eastern Conference semifinals.Brian Windhorst@WindhorstESPN
The Pacers' Tyler Hansbrough had his foul upgraded to a flagrant-2 but was not suspended.

^ pretty much what everyone thought except for Heat beat writers
Sissy Stern.
This. Ratings are more important than doing what's right. Karma will bite the Hype in the ass again. I'll keep my avatar for another year anyway.
I think he already sent the only message he needs to send through his statement to the media. What does he need to do, send them a giftwrapped DVD of the McHale clothesline on Rambis? Have the arena play "Mama Said Knock You Out" during timeouts?
I don't think he means for them to go for the knees, but yeah, I think his message was already transparent. Some guys for the Heat are going to hit the floor tomorrow.
if you were really russian you'd be a net fan and support your boy
No Haslem for game 6? No problem. WGAF about Pittman. Miami will be fine as long as Bron and Wade are on the court.
Hopefully the Pacers can push this series to 7 games, and the C's won't the bed Game 6.
I approve prokorovs 5 year plan to gain a foothold in the nba. How do you feel about next years nets signing of howard and williams?
This is about you being a spur fan masquerading as a Russian heat fan which doesn't even make sense, tbh.
Everyone knows Dallas is done tell me something cool.
