I REALLY wish they would have gone ahead and let that sucker play. Now we have to hear about this crap until next season.
Here is the way i look at it. Is it fair that Stat and Diaw get suspended for coming off the bench but not doing anything? No. Did Horry deserve a 2 game suspension for what he did? No
But the league had to give Diaw and Stat 1 game according to the rules so that means that to punish Horry and the Spurs they had to give him 1 extra game.
So i think it was the right decision. Consider the option:
Don't suspend Diaw and Stat and give Horry 1 game. Guess what happens then?
Spurs get blown out in game 5 and are down 3-2.
At least now the Spurs will probably go up 3-2 and get a chance to win the series on their own court minus Horry.
Trust me, it could have been a whole lot worse Spurs fans!
You should post more.
