  • only Melo got 15 games.
  • I'm sure CNN will get it right eventually.

    Meanwhile a fan issues a taunt, throws no punches and the NBA wants them banned for life.

    Still not good enough. Should have been more.

    And I have Melo on my fantasy team image
    So basically my kid won't be able to go to college, but at least I'll have a set where the three most expensive cards are of a player I despise ~ CDsNuts

    This will be little more than an unpaid vacation for these guys, with the amount of money they make it is
    not going to hurt much at all.

    I think each one suspended should be required to write a personal letter of apology (wording approved by
    the NBA) and to read it in person before the start of the next game they play in after the suspension.

    Sound corny? Perhaps, but I bet you they would be very reluctant to do this which is why it
    should be done.

    I'm surprised none of the punks pulled a gun and started "shooting in the air"

    6th longest suspension in nba history. Jermaine Oneal only got 15 games for his part in the pistons fans/pacers brawl... He clocked like 5 fans and almost killed a fat guy... The suspension was actually longer than most expected most expected 10 at most. Im sure he will appeal and get it lowered.
