May 24, 201214 yr How would the Pacers suffer? Stephenson sure, but who cares about him? He'll be lucky to hang around the league as it is. I mean it like Stern saying they intentionally sent him in the game to injure Wade or Lebron and fining them, taking draft picks, lengthy suspensions, etc. That kind of move would be similar to the bounty situation in the NFL. If they send in a goon and it is and obvious goon move I could see Stern punishing the organization.

If they send in a goon and it is and obvious goon move I could see Stern punishing the organization. Say they're down 12-15 with a minute left in the 4th. Vogel decides to empty his bench and it happens before Miami can get them out of the game. How could you say that's a goon move? It's what happens frequently in the NBA. There's no way Stern could or would do it.

It's not like Indiana can sneak their bench without the Heat having time to make changes as well. If Spo leaves them in with known bench players and they get dropped then that is on Spo. I still think Stern would send a message. This would be a blatant foul after the league sent a warning. That's grounds for whatever punishment he wants to deliver.
May 25, 201214 yr I see you DWade. You're a chump but I see you. Just straight going off!! They need about 70 from Wade and Lebron and they will get it.
May 25, 201214 yr Got my tickets and will be in attendance for Game 6 Thursday! Can't wait! I hope the Heat are there to close it out instead of forcing a game 7, either way though I am looking forward to it. NBA Playoff Basketball! :dancingpa: I bet you had fun D!!
May 25, 201214 yr When LeBron is rolling he is easily the best player in the NBA. When Wade is rolling, he is just behind LeBron though I think offensively he can be more scary because of his inside/out game. The main reason I was never worried even with the Bosh injury. You have arguably the two best players in the NBA and we are worried about Roy Hibbert and Danny Granger? Really? Though LeBron's game 4 was viewed as an "all time great" performance, Wade last night was equally as impressive though it will not get the same attention. To quote the great Gus Johnson, Wade was "coldblooded".
May 25, 201214 yr I bet you had fun D!! Awesome time man, it really was. Way better than watching a college game.
