Re: Stack suspended for Game 5! Oh that I agree with.I think he was trying to light a fire under the Mavs or something, and he might have did it by getting suspended...But the tone you had in your posts was that he deserved it, and noone should say otherwise.If you didn't mean that than make it a little clearer next time, lol.

You deserve to be suspended if you make a boneheaded play in the Finals when your team is down by 20 and you're intentionally trying to hurt someone. That someone being a 7'1'', 300 pound monster that could have seriously been injured, or more importantly, seriously injured someone else if he fell on top of them hard.</div> :brickwall: It's pretty obvious you have no idea what you're talking about.Let's compare the suspensions given by the league for unnecessary and excessive fouls.Raja: Decided long ahead of time he was going to do it. Fouled Kobe hard and on the perimeter and was immediately tossed from the game. As I remember, he stood over Kobe after it happened.Posey: Pretty much the same as Raja. Hard foul, no point to it, out on the perimeter, immediately ejected.Stack: Hard foul to stop a layup. Probably not needed, but not done with malicious intent. Hell, he didn't even look at Shaq after the foul happened. He was looking at the basket. Afterwards, he was not ejected and made peace with Shaq. There's very little similarity to this suspension and the others.This wouldn't happen in any other league. All of them are tightening up, giving more suspensions, and trying to clean up their image, but this is ridiculous.
