Will Dirk be suspended?

[monosylab1k]

Don't mind the Mavs fans. They're just bitter that they got their asses handed to them and are just a short losing streak away from being the 9th seed.

Hey now there's a relevant comment.

I love the "i guess you've never had this type of injury" argument. Biggest bunch of bull as far as I'm concerned. Hey, you can claim on the internet that you've had every sports injury known to man, good for you. Still doesn't give you any more insight into the subject.

I still wonder why Spurs fans were so quick to make fun of Devin Harris for getting hurt when J-Rich blocked him from behind & then fell right on top of him. Oh I know, they're just bitter that they got their asses handed to them and lost in the 2006 WCSF. that must be it.

1 ft. fall...2 ft. fall...turning your body too quickly the wrong way..

Any of them can put you in severe pain.

Never pulled a muscle in your back, I'm guessing. Where every time you take a breath a shooting pain goes through your body.

Oh, and it wasn't a 1 ft fall. His back was probably 6 or 7 feet off the ground when he started to go backward.

I have. Just had a wreck with some idiot that ran a red light going like 60. ed up my back and neck. mine was probably worse than what AK-47 had to deal with last night. i know how those pains feel. not enough to make me act like im hurt worse than i am. but i have a good pain tolerance. perhaps AK-47 doesnt, unlike true stars such as Kobe, Wade, Dirk, Nash, and Lebron who play through injuries and falls that they deal with on a regular basis.

I've also played basketball just 5 minutes after spraining and tearing multiple ligaments in my ankle (didn't know they were torn at the time though). Hurt like crap, but managable. Came in and hit the GW three too.

It was a good hard foul,though unfortunately he followed through with his arms in a complete motion which should result in a one game suspension.

[remingtonbo2001]

He didnt deserve it. It was just a terrible call. Different situation, terrible comparisons. You fail.

No my friend, you fail.

I was being sarcastic.I'm not sure if that statement couldn't be any more obvious.

Lol, I know you were. I was being sarcastic as well. It appears that it is you who fails at seeing sarcasm. im just messin with you

Dirk didn't want to hurt him obviously. But as stated before, what will give him the one game suspension is the follow through with his hands. You can say his hands got tangled with AK47's neck, but he followed through with his hands in an unatural basketball move (the kobe precedent)

You don't know what you are talking about - different kinds of injuries manifest in different ways in the body and its ability to function immediately after an injury.

These are examples of big injury, immediate reaction not so bad:
I broke the navicular bone in my wrist clean through when driving the lane and was able to keep playing for 15 minutes until the adrenaline wore off, and then had to be in a cast for 8 weeks. My brother tore his ACL a month ago while getting "big air" snowboarding and walked away from it thinking it was sprained (big air not recommended on a racing tailless snowboard unless you are crazy like him).

This is an example of an injury that was not that bad, but caused immediate incapacitation:
Recently I was digging 24" x 24" holes in my granite soil to plant some trees, but tweaked myself on the 3rd hole with a bad movement - I could barely walk for two weeks and could not even get out of bed or a chair for 3 or 4 days without help, but in about 3 weeks I was back to digging more holes.

Obviously you haven't had an injury before that caused immediate incapacitation. NBA, NHL, and NFL athletes take daily beatings on their bodies that you could not even imagine. Your pussy ass wouldn't last 2 minutes on an NBA court with any of those guys (my non-pussy ass wouldn't either).

No malicious intent, but the second move to steady himself where he ends up horsecollaring AK-47 looks bad. I hope he doesnt get it upgraded to an F2, but if he does it will be hard to argue against it.

Hey look, it's internet tough guy.

I'd like to think Dirk wasn't trying to injure AK, but the result was a brutal foul.

[Findog]

I'm pretty sure he wasn't, but the results speak for themselves.

[monosylab1k]

Hey look, it's internet tough guy.

what a dumbass. A Spurs fan was the one saying "I bet you've never had a back injury" and stretch just pointed out that yes, he did. Tell your internet tough guy Spur fan ass buddy to shut it with the "you've never felt that kind of pain before!" bull first.

Shows what a ing moron you are. Of course I wouldn't last. I'm not in the shape they are. If I was trained and in the shape they were, I'm more than positive that I could take a few bumps and falls without acting like I'm on the verge of needing a ing amputation.

[ratm1221]

What a premature ejaculation thread. I have seen nothing that remotely even hints to Dirk being suspended. This is the only thing I could find in the news about the Dirk foul. But keep wishing.

"I really didn't think it was something that flagrant," Sloan told reporters. "I know it may have looked that way, but I don't think Nowitzki is that kind of guy. It's part of basketball."

Very cool for Sloan to say that. He is a great coach.

[Findog]

Hopefully they would've made a decision by now.

In the NBA?

It is always different when you know you have an injury, to when you don't. I stabbed myself in the leg on accident. Didn't even know until I saw a big pool of blood from where I was sitting and felt something down my leg. I bet you if I saw it happen, I would scream my ass off.

One could argue that it merits discussion, because there is a possibility of it. Personally I'm fine with a flagrant 1, I think it's an unfortunate cir stance and Dirk just got badly faked out.

Who the F are you? I'm sure Dirk will sleep better at night knowing that you are ok with a flagrant 1.

And why exactly would you care anyway? You are Spursfan.
