After the game i saw dirk throwing and kicking things around out of frustration (cant blame him), cant he be suspended for that?
I doubt it, he'll get some fines though. I'm wondering if Mark Cuban can get suspended from going t ogames. Supposedly after game 5 he ran onto the court and was screaming at officials and mugging Stern. Seriously, does the NBA think fining him is going to stop him from having temper tantrums like a 5 year old?
Yeah I saw Mark staring at Stern at the end of last nights game...lol...and yeah Dirk will probably get a fine for kicking the ball into the stands.
If Dirk gets suspended it WOULD really piss me off as a basketball fan....but I seriously doubt it happens.

Much like Reggie miller did in his final playoff game against the Detroit pistons. I believe he got fined $30,000. But shoot, that was a few years ago, knowing the NBA commsion nowadays, dirk will probably lose his U.S citezenship. lmao
haha I was just about to post a thread on this but I saw it last minute... But from what I saw on ESPN, Dirk kicked the ball into the stands, threw an excerise bike, and stomped on what seemed like some kinda of camera/light equiptment. My first thought was will he get fined or suspended, but I think its gonna be something like a very high fine. Imagine Dirk getting suspended when his team is on the line. What a loss for Dallas is would/could be.
Ok first off, he didn't really throw the bike. he tapped it against a wall cuz it was to heavy. lol He did kick the crap outta that T.V or w/e though. Now after i heard the kicking of the ball, i thought easily fine. no question of suspension. BUT didn't Ron Artest get suspended for the EXACT same thing a couple years back for throwin the T.V??? At first i laughed but now...I'm worried
It wouldnt matter because dirk has been a no show most of the series. Much love Jason Terry. I just want Shaq to Get that F.U Kobe Chip.

He has been struggling, but he's been scorin from the line and makin clutch shots, which DOES help his team. JT the jet has been playing phenomenal this entire post season though, and with an injured thumb
He gets fined. <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Dallas Mavericks forward Dirk Nowitzki has been issued the standard fine of $5,000 for kicking a basketball into the stands, it was announced today by Stu Jackson, NBA Senior Vice President Basketball Operations. The incident occurred at the conclusion of the Mavericks’ 101-100 loss to the Miami Heat in Game 5 of the 2006 NBA Finals at AmericanAirlines Arena</div> Source

There would be 1hr special surrounding the incident and everything. I guess isn't as "threatning" as Artest is. Anyways, I wouldn't put it past Stern and Jackson. They'll have lost touch with reality
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Bobcats:</div><div class="quote_post">I could only imagine the temper tantrum Cuban would have if Dirk got suspended.</div> Aw man. Did you see him yesterday when the press was asking him questions, he was so fumed.
Id be pissed too! They had the game in theyre hands, 1.9 seconds left and they had the ball at half court before Josh Howard signaled for the "supposed" time out. Wade sunk the free throws and heat up 1!
The way this series has gone, im surprised that dirk didnt get suspended for the remaining two games. They might as well just hand the heat the title
^^Please quit your whining man, we've had guys suspended, guys struggle as well your not alone so don't blame the league for your team blowing 2 winnable games.
<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">They might as well just hand the heat the title </div> I agree.....the trophy matches the heats uniforms much better anyways.
