Re: Should this be considered an "Unnatural Basketball Move"? I found this at CLhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GGnnN5BMXwEI don't like seeing people get supsended for stuff like this, but honestly, Kobe got suspended twice for essentially the same thing. Here's Kobe's.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y6FOsBjD3ik
Re: Should this be considered an "Unnatural Basketball Move"? I don't know. I had never seen this before, but it's hard to tell from something like that. The quality is pretty crappy, so I can't tell exactly how he's coming down. Also, as I recall they gave down a ruling partly based on the fact that Kobe was having little tiffs with Ginobili (and whoever that other guy was).
Re: Should this be considered an "Unnatural Basketball Move"? Yeah, he did the same thing Kobe did....but I still dont want him to be suspended. This is the playoffs. They shouldnt suspend the Leagues poster boy in a critical game because of that. In the regular season, sure...it's only 1 game...but in the playoffs it's win or go home, and the Cavs are ALREADY down.

But judging by the recent incidents regarding Amare and Diaw being suspended, the guys upstairs aren't really gonna care about the circumstances. They suspended one of the premier players in the most critical game in the most premier series. If they did that then why shouldn't they suspend Lebron for something like this?<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Justice @ May 22 2007, 03:45 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>Also, as I recall they gave down a ruling partly based on the fact that Kobe was having little tiffs with Ginobili (and whoever that other guy was).</div>I think you're getting your facts mixed up. Kobe and Ginobili really haven't had any "little tiffs". And Marko Jaric and Kobe aren't rivals or anything.

I'm just telling you what was said.

I can honestly say I don't remember hearing or seeing anything about that.
