So Mello is a coward for running and a thug for throwing a punch??????? The "running" didn't make him a coward IMO, but not punching someone who is in your face then throwing a haymaker around people is CHEAP!!!!

You can't look like a woman (see Chris Henry) and be a thug. That's just the way it is. Carmello looks like a girl and fights like one.

15 game checks for Melo is a pretty large amount...

Come on hes a little girl for running away!!!!!:walk: :walk:

My take on defending your teammates. Let's say Spindoc (he started this thread) and I were on the same team and he was fouled hard and a scuffle ensued. I would not run up slap someone and run for the other side of the court. If I want to be loyal to my teammate and I got involved, we would either walk out together or be carried out together. To me that would be loyalty. He can't declare it a loyal action in my book.

He also had the opportunity to fight and waited until people were between him and others before he threw the punch.

No way do I agree with that. 15 games for your top scorer in a competitve conference can make or break your season.

Hats off to my new favorite NBA coach George Karl for nailing Isaiah the way he should be nailed.

For us, not for him.

Wow...they are ALMOST jeopardizing the Nuggets season because their top-scorer, who happens to be a very well known face in the NBA and enshrined on a ton of kids walls, pulled the stunt he did in the middle of a game...way to bring down the hammer on that kind of stuff NBA! :rolleyes:

Nate Robinson was the reason the entire fight occurred in the first place. I'm shocked that Thomas didn't get any suspension. It was fairly obvious that he ordered the hit and was trying to start something.

I'm pretty sure he wasn't the only reson. He was the one that got pushed and TACKELED anyway, I think he was defending his teammates. I think all the suspensions were about right except for J.R. Smith, he retaliated and kept on fighting I think he should've had around 12 or 13 games.

15 games is more than fair.

For us, not for him.

It's 17% of the season. In baseball that would be 29 games. Football it would be 3. Chris Henry missed 3 games and the Bengals could have used him. What if Jeter was suspended 30 games if he charged the mound and clocked someone? Pedro threw 97 at someone's head, ran, and missed 3 starts top. 3 games out of 162. Do you still think 15 games is not a big deal?

 

He makes 80 million over 5 years. Thats 410 games. 195k a game

 

195,000x15 is............A Lot of money to anyone. $2,926,829

 

Still not a big deal?

This is one of the most unfair suspensions ever. I can't recall one that was even close to being as harsh for a punch. A punch refered to as "an open handed slap."
