Also known as the "Terence Davis rule." Too soon?

Pretty dumb.
Congratulations, Adam Silver.

Ejection has no monetary penalty, unless I'm wrong.
$30k for OG is far less than Fred's single game suspension without pay

Still a dumb rule.
Google "Kermit Washington punch"
The NBA is justifiably anal about minimizing the possibility of fights breaking out.
If someone is going to throw hands, someone is going to throw hands. No fine is going to stop anyone like Kermit.

He serves the suspension once he’s physically cleared

He may actually have been trying to steady him. He looks like he thought he had his other leg and not his weight bearing one. You could see it in OG's reaction after the event happened.

So can the team clear him one game earlier than he's really ready?
Meanwhile Schroeder who provoked the whole thing gets nothing.

Not far enough. Their best friends on the team also should be suspended for the year, which according to some, would be Pascal and Trent. All two way contracts are immediately promoted to the starting line up averaging at least 35 minutes per game. And finally, the head coach is to exchange organizational roles with the team mascot.
Sometimes, you just gotta nip these things in the bud.
