Kevin Garnett elbowed Q-Rich in Game 1. UPDATE: KG suspended one game

[D-Rose]

I think it's pretty ironic that KG is so sensitive to a little trash talk (if that's what Q was doing) when KG talks more of it than anyone in the league.

[Grey Dawn]

wow.theres still little girls over here making outrageous claims calling KG a ***** and a girl and scared and all this nonsense? ISH has reached an all time high for trolls and haters. Way to go Jeff. A once great website for basketball talk has turned into this. congrats!

It all started b/c of Q. And only an idiot refuses to see that. Pierce was down, KG was checking over him, and Q came over there like an in-bred idiot with no respect, standing over Pierce and talkin nonsense, so KG defended his teammate, just like he was supposed to do.

You guys are ****ing idiots, and I'll leave it at that.

You, my friend, are the idiot. With your senseless defending where your only tactic is calling people names.

It was unquestioningly an intentional elbow to the face (and then running away like the sissy he is). And no, no one was holding him, he wasn't trying to flail around to free himself and made incidental contact. It was a deliberate cheap shot. Just watch the replay (without 'Celt fan' vision). Automatic suspension. End of story.

eh, just saw the replay on espnnews....doubt any suspension occurs. thanks for getting my hopes up a-hole. jk

One player in the league is allowed to throw elbows to the face with no repercussions by Stern and Stu Jackson:

Wow, that 2nd elbow from LeBron was brutal.

Looks like KG shouldnt be the only one suspended. I knew Haslem threw a punch/elbow of his own, but no one here was talking about it. Haslem hitting Big Baby, with a ref RIGHT THERE. lol. Defend that, haters.

Remember that one guy yesterday, he was this poster from Dallas who was a Boston fan, and he gave up on his team when down 12 at the half of game one, then he came back once Boston got a clear lead and started talking shit?

I remember that guy.
He was a bitch. He reminded me alot of KG.

Garnett should be suspended. But honestly I don't know if I feel like reading 'the league is out against the celtics' bs for the entire summer and beyond. This is the Celtics last year at the top and I'm pretty sure if he gets suspended and the Heat win this series, the whining will never stop ala Spurs/Suns.

I don't believe in favoritism either, by the rules Garnett should be suspended, and stop getting away with cheap shots all the time. Tough call.

KG has officially been suspended for Game 2

Whatever. We'll still get Game 2.

[Big Bang Theory]

Didn't expect a suspension or find it necessary but if that's what it takes to nudge KG towards some respect, then fine.

[NewYorkUSCtrojan]

LOL - Gay-G and Pauley Pierce both been exposed. Their image will always be remember as the NBA's PUSS! Bunch of Fake Thugs!!
