    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Houston Chronicle -
    Tracy McGrady said that he believes that Dirk Nowitzki should be suspended by the league for the flagrant foul on Utah's Andrei Kirilenko on Monday, the Houston Chronicle is reporting.

    "He should be (suspended)," McGrady said. "That was a pretty hard foul. Not only that, to slam a guy to the ground like that, it was a hard foul. It should have been a flagrant-2."

    That wasn't a hard foul. (or intended to hurt AK47)

    I'm just sore he beat me to it. The first video I watched had AK rolling around on the floor in pain for five minutes like he just got sat on by Antoine Walker three years after his retirement before they showed the replay.

    Wow. T-Mac should just shut his mouth. Back in the day, players would get patted on the back for doing something like that; and then hit hard on the other end.

    AK had a hard time walking. They had to wheel him out of the arena, so I really don't think he was acting.

    Nice, nice.

    I hope he doesn't get suspended. That'd be bull.

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Nowitzki suspended for Kirilenko foul

    NEW YORK (Ticker) - Dallas Mavericks forward Dirk Nowitzki on Wednesday was suspended one game by the NBA for the flagrant foul which left Utah?€™s Andrei Kirilenko with a sprained right hip.

    Kirilenko was hurt in Utah?€™s 116-110 win over Dallas Monday when he was grabbed from behind by a falling Nowitzki as he went to make a layup in the first period, dragging Kirilenko to the ground and causing him to twist on his hip awkwardly.

    The Russian hobbled out of the game and will miss Utah?€™s game against Minnesota Wednesday and likely the game at Phoenix Friday.

    Nowitzki was initially assessed for a penalty one flagrant foul, but the NBA announced Wednesday that the foul has been upgraded to a penalty two, bringing a one-game suspension.

    Nowitzki will sit out Thursday?€™s game against the Houston Rockets in Dallas.

    The German is averaging 23.6 points and 8.7 rebounds per game for the Mavericks this season</div>

    That was a bit unexpected.

    Even with Dirk out, I'm pretty confident Dallas can get a win over Houston. Afterall, they are missing Yao Ming.

    I've seen worse fouls than that. I guess someone just has to speak out to get something done.

    Yeah. I'm not even a fan of Dallas (sorry, Kidd), and I'm rooting for the Mavs to blow out the Rockets.
