Mo Bamba Suspended 4 Games, Suggs 1 Game

[Howard Mass]

I hate that Jalen Suggs got suspended as he was just trying to break up the fight. The Nature of the takedown likely contributed.

Suggs was getting into a rhythm and hopefully he stays on track when he returns Tuesday.

LOL Bamba is such a tool

Now wait until security guard sues him

Bamba was well within his rights to go after Rivers. You can't invade someone's personal space in America. Yelling from the bench is free speech.

Rivers coming off the court to confront someone is a bigger issue.

Bamba was not in his right to confront Rivers in the hallways after the game. That is childish and petty.

Bamba was entirely entitled to jaw back at Rivers and share technicals...anything else is further penalties.

Pretty simple. You don't "get to" do anything because of how the mean kid made you feel.

It's not about feelings when someone is standing over you being aggressive. Getting your feelings hurt is what Rivers was dealing with when he was heckled.

Suggs can't even break up a fight right.

[Blue_and_Whte]

Bamba won’t play a few games and Suggs will miss a random game.. So nothings really changed.
I can’t decide which is funnier..Bamba acting hard or Rivers acting hard. Both should STFU and focus on their meddling careers. It also wouldn’t hurt to learn how to fight… geez. At leas Suggs connected on something.

What Killian Hayes did was worse, so it's a horse**** suspension length for that reason. Suggs should appeal, I feel like the union should have his back on it. But it's only one game so maybe it's not worth the effort.

The league thinks it is a massive difference when a player leaves the bench and attacks a player on the court more than two players on the court scuffling.

It was the opposite. Rivers left the court.

Hate to see Suggs miss a game yet can understand why.

Outside of that. Oh Bamba my bamba, a few years late to show any kind of toughness like that. At this phase I think that hurts his value far more then helping it.

Might get a late 1st rounder or early 2nd rounder for him.

Hope so. Means a team values him enough to give him a chance. I don't want to see any player we have do bad elsewhere. At the same time. His attitude and getting into a fight makes me think he is closer to a flame that flickers wildly before the wind snuffs it out, then a spark that is about to ignite a fire.

Edit : Unless there are rules against it. I think if we have a 1st on the table right now we should have already made the trade. Just my humble opinion. I don't think a better phone call is going to come then that.

Bamba threw the first punch. Big difference.

That’s probably why Rivers got 3 games. Outside of that he was just defending himself.

Bamba easily could have just stood up and got in his face. Maybe exchange some shoves. Shared a double T and the game goes on. Happens frequently. He’s the far bigger person and he had his teammates right beside him. Why he felt the need to go on the attack I don’t know.

I've never seen a player leave the court to stand over someone on the bench.

LOL at desparate attemps to defend Bamba

Like... dude pick up somebody near your size. It's even more funny that once they were on the floor, it's Rivers who had upper hand in that fight.
But knowing Bamba is mental midget who was bullied by guards on court in past , that shouldn't be that suprising.

Hopefully that clown played last min for Magic. top 59 protected pick and ticket to see bad movie ? I'm all for that type of trade.

[drsd]

... and ticket to see bad movie ? I'm all for that type of trade.

Plan 9 from Outer Space (1957)
The Wicker Man (2006)
Howard the Duck (1986)
Masters of the Universe (1987)
The Toxic Avenger (1984)

There are a bunch of tickets I would accept in your proposed Bamba trade!


EDIT: I would even consider Dirty Dancing (1987) or Grease 2 (1982)
