History, intent, and biases unfortunately play a factor - it's really up to the ref's/league's discretion like technicals. Sheed got a technical for staring at a ref, Tim Duncan got ejected for laughing on the bench, Dwight got called for a FT violation for taking to long to shoot, and etc. Nash was calm and is a class act so the refs aren't going to call him for pulling a Rondo

nashs wasn't NEAR as bad as turks

play was suspended, and they were walking calmly and talking and nash put his hand on his shoulder

i actually made a joke about it in the rockets game thread because i assumed someone would make a thread about this

What a load of hog wash. This indimidating stuff is crap. Rondo was joking with the ref which was backed up by the referee himself. If you suspend Rondo for joking with a referee and touching him then you have to suspend Nash who was actually complaining to the ref and touched him. Neither deserves it, but that's the letter of the law.

If the nba calls Nash will he not answer the calls for two days and show no responsibility
Stop being so disrespectful.

Eh nothing is going to happen. The leaugue will hide behind the failure to cooperate part, and to be fair that part is on Rondo, he should have talked to the league.

There is a Rondo quote saying he did and that he doesn't understand how they came to that conclusion

I havent seen footage of the Rondo bump but why didnt he appeal? Seems like an open shut case (and no Im not being sarcastic). If the ref agreed with him it seems like a no brainer. Didnt Wade appeal even though it was obvious he kicked the guy?

They literally announced the suspension 1-2 hours before the game (after a 2 day layoff), not much time to appeal. Plus lets not pretend that Stu Jackson isn't the worst emplyee employed by the NBA.

I like Rondo, but he has a bad attitude. The NBA makes decisions based on history A good example would be MWP. When he fouls someone he has better chance to get suspended over other players. Nash wouldn't hurt a fly.

Nash didn't touch him in an intimidating manner.... I've seen many players touch refs before in a normal way and it's not an issue.

Remember Kobe getting suspended twice for "unnatural basketball acts" twice a few seasons ago and Lebron doing the same exact thing in the playoffs that year with not a single **** word said from anyone.

I wish someone around here would dig that up. It was like mirror images, same exact plays.


Kobe was swinging his arms into his defenders after he shot. He actually injured more than one person and deserved the suspension. I don't recall Lebrons, but Kobe's was definitely fair



I don't know what's up with the embed, but here's Lebron's. Like I said, it's the exact same thing Kobe got suspended for.

Wade and LeBron could probably punch a ref and it wouldn't even be a T lol.

paul pierce actually punched a ref and didnt get a t, so you're hurting your own argument
