Re: Should Wade get suspended
Naw, I don't think Wade should be suspended. Let players handle their business on the court.

Re: Should Wade get suspended
Anyone else find it disturbing that Miller and Kerr were SO quick to say unintentional? Why did they both spit it out so fast...almost like they are told to do that. I can't think of why else they would be so eager to say it was unintentional. If I was an announcer I would want to talk about this with my colleague. Maybe ask him why he jumped and extended his elbow, etc.
There is really no other explanation other then they are told to not talk about it. Second, it seems extremely likely they are also told to say not intentional and be protective of the officials or a specific team. Maybe both. I just can't think of why else they would act like that.
And then you think of if it happened to Lebron. What would they have done? I'm not certain on this but it seems like they would have talked about it much more AND probably said it was intentional. It just seems like that is what would have happened.
I wonder if I visited Miller and Kerr and was jogging down the side walk and spotted them if I did a jumping elbow towards their head if they thought it was intentional?

Lets give Wade a chance. It's not like he has a history of this kind of play.

Wade hit him with the Tito Santana flying forearm.
I heard mofos saying they made Kobe/ Made Kobe say, "Ok so, make another Kobe"

To be fair my initial reaction to the hit was a lot different than the announcers thoughts process of it. That's all imma say.

Re: Should Wade get suspended
It was either intentional or reckless. Inexcusable either way. Today's sports environment is very protective over people's heads and justifiably so. To say, "back in the day" or "David West -this-" is irrelevant. He deserves a game.
That's hilarious and co

That play happens all the damn time. Sticking out an elbow on the screen is the most common "foul" in basketball.

You're easily killed. Most people are calling for a game and using Wade's past history of cheap shots as an example. It's actually been a reasonable thread, especially for the GB

You sound more naive than the people that are trying to say Wade had no intention in elbowing Stephenson. West was very clearly going after Mario's shoulder. You want to guess why?
