So when a player goes up to a ref after a call and places his hand on his back when talking to him, does that deserve a suspension?

I agree, hitting a player ='s 7 games.
Hitting a ref from behind ='s 1 game.
Stern does love the Celtics though.

Wade tries to use the backboard entirely too much on midrange shots lol. Its useful once in a while, but it seems like its every time

Wade didnt establish himself back in bounds before he caught that pass lol. Or is that rule different in the NBA?

So Caron broke a bone in his left hand? Didnt he play for a while with it broken before coming out? I bet some players in the NBA would still be playing with that injury depending on what bone is broken

He said post game that he played with it for a while and it wasn't bad, but he really felt it start to throb when he first came out of the game. That's when he went back for xrays.

Hmm didnt know that. Hes a big part of their team, I feel that if he would get like a pain killer shot or something before the game he could manage to play still. But idk what bone it was and what type of pain hes in so I wont question his heart.

And the team doctors may not have cleared him due to instability in the hand/wrist. If it was a small carpal bone of the wrist, maybe he could get away with it, but a broken metacarpal would lead to pain, swelling and inability to close the hand tightly.

Melo and the Knicks with a good bounce back half. Melo taking too many shots though, have to move that ball some more and knock down 3's to beat the Heat. Let's see if they can make the adjustment. 18 shots in a half is too much when you have those shooters on the floor. Good to see him stepping up though and trying to take over.

Nobody else will shoot though lol. Jr and Melo seem to be the only ones willing to pull the trigger. Novak is utterly useless unless hes spotted up wide open, cant upt the ball on the floor at all(hell you saw him stop a fast break and literally just pick up his dribble and almost travel haha) Bibby cant shoot, Fields is a slasher and has Wade on him most of the time so hes not doin anything, Baron is out hurt, Chandler is fine with just rebounding. I just dont understand who else would score if Melo and Jr dont keep shootin


Edit: Amare could help down low, but hes not really a post up type big man, and his mid range sure hasnt been fallin since his return from injury

I guess my point is that one man can't beat Miami. Even though he had 21 points he took 18 shots to get it. Miami is normally not great at guarding the 3 point line so if they can get some of those other guys going that is their best chance.
