Agreed....it would be tough to really do something like that. Only rule I know that comes remotely close, and it is just a penalty and not suspension per se, isAzubuike24;1724842 wrote:Olynyk should've gotten the same suspension as J.R., but you can't change the severity of a suspension because of when the injury happened and how long the injured player missed. If a pitcher throws at a batter in baseball and ends his season, do you suspend the pitcher the whole year instead of a standard 5 games? It was a shitty play but an even shittier break for the Cavs.
In hockey you can, or at least used to, get a double minor if you drew blood in a high sticking incident

Maybe, but 1 game is a joke. It needs to be 5 minimum.Azubuike24;1724842 wrote:Olynyk should've gotten the same suspension as J.R., but you can't change the severity of a suspension because of when the injury happened and how long the injured player missed.

If I was a basketball player and saw Kendrick Perkins coming to set a pick on me, I'd probably just fall down. Pretend I was dead maybe. Isn't that what you do with bears?Heretic;1724815 wrote:Kendrick Perkins just read that and realized he was completely erect.

He's a big dude and he really doesn't give a fuck.

There is no way that Smith's backwhip was premeditated. It wasn't retaliatory either. I remember in a JV game I hit 3 bombs in a row and while jogging back on defense, this skinny prick shoves me for no reason. By instinct, I round housed the guy to the face. The ref saw the whole thing and threw his ass out of the game...and did nothing to me.thavoice;1724813 wrote:If it had happened before that incident......probably right.
but afterwards and, well, unfortunately they not only see it as the play that it was but also retaliatory and premeditated .
JR Smith had no idea that he would nail that sucker in the mug. He was looking the other way for God sake. Bad suspension.
As for K Love, I understand his frustration. His dream season is over. I would be just as pissed as he is. But I don't think Olnyk had any intent to injure there either. Shit happens.

When I was 12 I had a powerlifting contest against my oldest cat. She gave me a run for my money. Those long arms & claws. Deceptive how much a Tabby can deadlift.Heretic;1725129 wrote:Must be related to Classy, making a direct comparison from the NBA to a JV basketball game to "prove" a point.

Back in time for next season, though I'm ok with them holding him out til around Christmas or so.
Still disgusted by this whole thing. Can't wait for Olynyks first game in Cleveland.

Don't feel bad that you weren't good enough to play organized basketball in your life. People that have know exactly what I'm talking about. JR got a raw deal.Heretic;1725129 wrote:Must be related to Classy, making a direct comparison from the NBA to a JV basketball game to "prove" a point.

Remember the Chief taking out Laimbeer? Parrish got nothing as far as suspension...but JR gets 2 games.
