That should have just been a regular foul.
This play reminds me alot of this play
Whats the difference? Artest gets Flagrant 2 and gets ejected, while Rondo gets only a personal foul.
Bull .....

Its not Artests fault that Paus head looks alot like a goofy hairy basketball. He got ball first, then whacked him in the head on the follow through.
Good hard foul, not flagrant.
Wow, just saw this, a flagrant 2 you f#cking kidding me!? Come on LA doesn't need any help. In the old days, you got to foul the out of someone on the break in the playoffs, if you didn't you got benched.
The difference is Artest got the ball and Rondo missed by about 3 ft...
Rondo should've been ejected and Artest shouldn't have gotten anything but a regular foul...
The NBA reduced the flagrant foul, penalty two assessed to Rockets guard Ron Artest on Friday to a penalty one, eliminating any chance that he could be suspended for Sunday’s Game 4 against the Lakers.
Artest fouled the Lakers’ Pau Gasol in the last minute of the Rockets’ loss on Friday and was ejected from a second consecutive game. NBA executive vice president Stu Jackson reviewed the video on Saturday and reduced the penalty.

LOL, I bet the reason there is a flagrant 1 and 2 is to give the league the flexibility to change it like this when they realize they f'd up. Be safe and go with the 2, then change it to a 1. Glad artest is going to get to play.
