Re: Kobe Bryant nails Jaric in face, suspended 1 game
[QUOTE=Cool]How can you say that? When Lebron almost took off D-Wades neck they dont review it or do anything. But Kobe accidentally comes down on somebody because he is trying to draw a foul. They need to suspend both to look consistent. Cause right now they look like immature babies who dont know what the hell there doing.[/QUOTE]
Perhaps if the Heat had contacted the league about Lebron's clothesline then he would have received a suspension.

What does that have to do with anything? I dont get it.
Re: Kobe Bryant nails Jaric in face, suspended 1 game
I don't think kobe is trying to injure anybody by doing this. I think it's just a stupid way to try and draw a foul. This did work once you know. He did that same arm fling thing against the jazz at the end of a game and the ref was too busy looking at kobe's feet (to see if he was shooting a 3 or a 2) that he really thought kobe got fouled. If this doesn't teach kobe to stop doing it though, nothing will.

[QUOTE]"I haven't seen the replay, but if you ask me what I thought about the play when it happened, [B]I don't think he did it intentionally, and I don't think players should be suspended for things that happen unintentionally[/B]," Jaric told ESPN.com.

Been posted once already, but this bears repeating. The guy he hit - a fellow pro basketball player and not some Internet prosecutor - [B]doesn't[/B] think Kobe meant to hit him in the face, [B]doesn't [/B]think he should be suspended, and [B]does [/B]think all Kobe was trying to do was draw a foul. I guess that's "Marko Logic" for you.
Re: Kobe Bryant nails Jaric in face, suspended 1 game
Do yall think the Kobe Raja Bell feud has anything to do with this.

of course he would say these things because he does not want to sound bitter on TV but deep inside he was cursing kobe.
Re: Kobe Bryant nails Jaric in face, suspended 1 game
Thats NBA league decision the most dirty and unethical of professional sports in the USA compare to other professional league. Why?
the league hates Kobe so much, but how about those three blind mice, how come they dont get suspended and get fined any of those refs. when they fixed games. Games should be review on each game and make sure to penalized refs who fixed games... Anyways who told those referees to fixed games maybe the league itself.
and counting the other way around I havent heard the NBA suspended or penalized anyone who hit Kobe intentionally, its always Kobe who gets the hit if he retaliates. Its very unfair and unethical of the league.
Re: Kobe Bryant nails Jaric in face, suspended 1 game
in all fairness to Stern and Stu Jackson, i think Kobe deserves to be suspended for that arm motion after a block shot.. intentional or not, it's just a dangerous play, and Kobe should know better...especially since he has been suspended before for the same action..
the problem is, I think it's a natural reaction from Kobe.. it probably didn't even cross his mind that he will hit Jaric.. he just did it to draw the foul...
but please stop with this Kobe is a dirty player... if he is such a dirty player, then why Manu or Jaric both said Kobe didn't do it to intentionally.. and both time both player said that Kobe apologize for the "accidental" hit..
Re: Kobe Bryant nails Jaric in face, suspended 1 game
Konex makes a thread about Kobe and moments later he gets suspended, this dude is my favorite Laker fan by far!! [IMG]http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w5/NashIsBest/smileyrofl2.gif[/IMG]
Re: Kobe Bryant nails Jaric in face, suspended 1 game
This exactly what Phil said about the suspenision.
[QUOTE]But Jackson stands by his decision.
"I'm not in the business of reading players' minds, I'm simply evaluating the play as a basketball play," Jackson told The Associated Press. "And when you take a shot and follow through, followed by driving an arm back in an aggressive manner that strikes a defender in his face, that's what we evaluated to be a non-acceptable play."
Lakers coach Phil Jackson weighed in on the suspension and defended Bryant.
"If they're going to make a call, even if they're wrong, they'll still be consistent," Jackson said.
He added, "I think I'm going to have to put about 50 clips of Kobe shooting his shot and his arms going out like that so the judger of this deed of Kobe's sees that he does this a lot," Jackson said. [B]"It's not an unnatural basketball motion."[/B][/QUOTE]
