As I expected...

We all know what D Stern's initials stand for. :wink:

Wonder what the results would have been if it was Sheed instead of KG?

Anyway, this series has been as fun as our series with Philly but I think both will end in 6.

I'm happy seeing no suspensions.

If the Hawks do the unthinkable and win this series that's what will be remembered, not KG getting suspended.

I'm not surprised, really. If the refs had interpreted that KG tried to elbow one of them, he would have been ejected on the spot.

Because he didn't throw a headbutt. He put his head up against KG and got in his face and KG overreacted to the minimal contact making it look like a headbutt and probably trying to draw a technical.

Why would you guys really care whether Crapchulia gets suspended or not?

Because he's a man, he's tough, and he will stand up to softies like Kevin Garnett. We all fear him.

Has Stern commented on this? I'm interested in finding out why he followed the letter of the law with Phoenix last season but did not with Marvin/Perk/KG

Stern is being really lenient this year. There were no suspensions for Haywoods hit on james, or the near faceplant that kidd gave to Pargo.
