I was expecting worst to be honest. We got lucky.

Better than I was expecting. Thought Brandon was going to get at least five.

Rondo returns Saturday (10/27) vs Spurs, Ingram returns Monday (10/29) vs Timberwolves. Lakers will play Spurs, Suns and Nuggets during their absence. Besides the Nuggets game, I think it's quite manageable

Lebron should get 5 for sweeping Chris Paul into his arms

I was expecting 10 for Ingram at least. Paul and Rondo 3 to 5. Not sure why Rondo gets more than Paul but hey.... Paul is a spokesperson for the NBA's top advertiser so that's interesting. The spitting stuff was inconclusive at best.

Not even that upset. CP3 has deserved it for a while now with all his antics.

I expected twice as many games for both BI and Rondo.
This isn’t too bad.
Ultimately this will make the team more united and together.
Now BI should get in the gym and make 500 threes everyday he has off.

CP3 deserved more (i'd have given him 3 or even 4 since Rondo only punched him in retaliation).

Ingram should be sent to just drill 3pt shots and maybe hit the weights as well since he's getting backed down in the paint by guys 5 inches shorter than him :lol:

Man we got lucky. Especially rondo for spitting and hitting. Very happy with this. Except cp3 should have got the same punishment as rondo

Wonder how the locker room is after LBJ stating he didn't speak to any of his teammates last night

Well Rondo did just spit at arguably his best friend. Not much you can do and not much he can say in that situation.
