    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Robert Horry of the San Antonio Spurs has been suspended two games without pay for intentionally making physical contact with a game official and for his actions during an altercation with Dallas? Jerry Stackhouse, it was announced today by Stu Jackson, NBA Senior Vice President Basketball Operations.

    The incident occurred with 1:02 remaining in the fourth period of the Spurs 98-89 win over the Mavericks at AT&T Center in San Antonio. Horry and Stackhouse were each assessed a personal and technical foul and subsequently Stackhouse?s foul has been upgraded by the League Office to a Flagrant Foul Penalty One.

    Stackhouse has also been fined $30,000 for publicly criticizing the officials following the game.

    Horry will serve his suspension tomorrow when the Spurs host the Portland Trail Blazers and on Monday, March 6 when the Spurs face the Los Angeles Lakers at Staples Center</div>

    Yea, Horry is weird that he was trying to bite Stackhouse. All those rings must be getting to him.

    Horry was just being his quirky self and probably trying to make light of the situation where as Stackhouse wanted to start some shtuff. He (Stack) didn't even feel the "bite" and only knew about it after he saw the replay himself. Horry just got a little weird in the heat of the moment and he's already apologized for it. People need to stop over-reacting about this already.
