Cassell Suspended 

Post#1 » by JiriMania » Fri Feb 8, 2008 8:30 pm

As the Sam I Am watch continues...

Cassell was suspended for one game without pay for the foul on Rondo.

I think it was a little too harsh a penalty, but I guess Stern is cracking down.

Well, he suspended Kobe for what he did on his shot, and this was much worse. So, no suprise.

Seems harsh considering Odom only got one game w/o pay for literally tackling Ray for no reason whatsoever. :-?

I'm pretty sure a flagrant 2 is an automatic 1 game suspension so that was expected.
