Why on earth would someone get suspended for a regular foul? You people amaze me.
Did Jones even get a foul for his trip?
In in tonight's game, Bryant purposefully trips Carmelo, and Carmelo lands on his wrist and breaks it, should it just be a regualar foul on Bryant?

I usually hit open layups
Re: Dahntay Jones tripped Kobe Bryant
When I was watching the game, I thought Kobe just stumbled, but when I say the replay, Jones clearly stuck his foot out with the intent to trip Kobe Bryant because he can't guard the dude. I think they upgraded it today.

Yeah they upgraded it to a flagrant 1 today, I think it would have been a Flagrant 2 if they had deemed it purposeful but I guess they didn't.

The fact that they elevated it to a flagrant indicates that they deemed it purposeful. Had Bryant injured himself, it likely would have been a flagrant 2. I don't think he should be suspended for the play, and I think in this regard, the league did the right thing. I just have the sense from watching game 4 that Denver is purposefully going after Bryant to get him to pick up another technical.

I just cannot believe that the coach would suggest such actions...to get another tech on Kobe.
I believe that Jones is getting abused, he knows it, and is genuinely trying to disrupt Kobe any way he can.
This has happened to other defenders who get frustrated (ahem..Raja...ahem)
If you are right, then their coach should hang his head low.

Did the right thing? How so? This is no punishment at all. It cost them nothing in the game, and could very well cost them nothing in the future.

BINGO
They know he won't fight back, and they're taking full advantage of it. Cause if he does, they REALLY win...

Seriously not hard to understand, and he obviously won't be suspended.
Are you serious???
If someone was going full force to the rim and you take him out on a trip....That would be enough a for a flagrant. Anytime you take action on a player with the intention to harm the player should be a flagrant. I haven't seen the trip but tripping a guy to the ground and shoving him to the ground is the same thing. Accidental trips are a different story.
Seriously...is that hard to understand?

It's because he is a Nuggets fan. They are kind of wacked out of their minds right now with false hope.

Re: Dahntay Jones tripped Kobe Bryant
Like I said before, I could see a case being made for the Flagrant 1, but let's save the Flagrant 2 for the really bad stuff. I think it's good they have some room to differentiate.
The fact that Kobe has lost his cool and collected 5 T's so far in the playoffs is nobody's fault other than Kobe's. If he hadn't collected the first ones, he wouldn't need to worry now. Sux, but that's the way it is.

You're wrong. But it's cool.
It IS unnecessary contact, you idiot.

Did People miss out Dahntay Jones hitting Biyombo on the groin at the end of game 3?
