Some dudes get really freaked out when they see their own blood. I am fairly sure that's what happened there.

The league is afraid of a player going crazy and endangering refs, staff, and fans.

These suspensions were completely predictable.


Makes sense always be the one to punch someone and if you get punched walk to the locker room

Terrible decision. LBJ should have got at least 2 games, if not 3. He threw the first punch, he started it all. Anyone else would have got more.

If I'm Stewart I'm looking for a chance to injure Lebron on Sunday. Enough is enough. Lebron needs to apologize or he should face the consequences. The league will not teach him a lesson, so the players have to.

100% not with Stewart here, and don’t condone either his actions or Bron’s initial swing. Both deserve suspensions, but I feel that Bron at least got off light. To me both should have been in the 2-3 game range, and it looks bad for the guy who swung to get just a single game after the F2, which is essentially the standard for someone who gets any type of F2. That wasn’t directly provoked & appeared to be a frustration lash-out.

I do have 2 lingering thoughts after watching the Jomboy breakdown:
1. What did Bron say, or not say, after the initial incident? It really seemed like he crossed some type of line from Stewart’s perspective with his response, or lack of response. I don’t want to theorise and start something, but if there’s a view that shows Brons face good enough to lip read I’d be super keen to know.

2. The initial call was a loose ball foul on Stewart & technical foul on Bron? That type of contact goes happens (& almost always goes uncalled) in two out of three rebounding contests. Was it just Brons reaction that made the ref call it a loose ball first? So he could justify the tech if Bron complained?

I definitely expect Stewart to either end bron's career or his life judging by the way he reacted. It was easy for the Wizards' players to bring guns to the locker room. Therefore, I wouldn't be surprised if Stewart brings one to the game and just shoots bron mid game.
So many people who attain the heights of power in this culture—celebrities, for instance—have to make a show of false humility and modesty, as if they got as far as they did by accident and not by ego or ambition.

But the question still remains what bron could have said "objectively" that would justify that kind of severe reaction by Stewart. Unless he was talking about some family member's death or a still born baby etc. I just don't see what would make that kind of reaction acceptable.
The pistons' staff seemed to dismiss what Stewart was telling them, so it most likely wasn't something along those lines.

Highly doubt anything happens in the next matchup. Those fines would really hurt Stewart's pockets at that point.

Stewart will probably get pretty physical with him and maybe even a few rough fouls but nothing crazy.

Not at all, you can call it revenge or deterrence. Sounds like you like to "turn the other cheek". Not me. You hurt me, I'm coming after you and make you regret. People learn and don't do it again.

They were absolutely 100% correct. The suspensions were appropriate.

And you can tell because the only rebuttal to posts like these are homophobic drivel.

They were absolutely 100% wrong on every point and the suspensions are a joke. Nobody gets 1 game for throwing a punch. Artest got 7 games for elbowing harden in similar fashion. A wind up and connect. Catering to Lebron like they always do. Also nothing about my comment was homophobic. Get over yourself :roll:

I mean, to take this terrible analogy a step further if a stranger had his elbow on my ribs and was trying to push me over I'd totally punch them in the face.

But no. If I'm mad about something seeing blood wouldn't make me much more upset.

The fine is ridiculous. They basically fined him an entire years worth of pay (after taxes). If anything suspend him 20 games. I really disagree with that.

And why's that? Jokic got suspended one game for his hit on Morris, and every bit of that hit was intentional. Did you think that to be unfair as well?

Meanwhile, LeBron's hit was intentional only in that he intentionally wanted to deliver a blow to get him off of him, not intentionally pop him in the face in that manner.

Finally, Stewart was completely out of line. Reminded me of a high schooler throwing a temper-tantrum and being restrained by teachers none stop with his persistent rage boiling over.

Correction: LeBron threw the ONLY punch.

So if punching a guy gets a one game suspension but reacting gets you two, might as well punch him back.

Great precedent set.
