Then you’re wrong.
Watch this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3RDYD0EUBzY
and then check any dictionary’s definition of “bolting” and “walking”.
The only violent aspect of what Stoudemire did was the strength with which his
coach grabbed him.
But how about answering the basic questions?
How is this any different from the Dave
Schultz scenario you described?
How are what Horry did and what Stoudemire
did equal?
Why shouldn’t Stern have suspended Duncan for the earlier
incident, if there is no leeway in these things and there are no excuses for
stepping onto the court?
Why shouldn’t Stern have interpreted
the Horry incident in a way that would not have required suspensions (as he did
with Duncan) since
that option was available under the rules?
How does this ruling, which rewarded Horry’s
on court violence, make future on court violence less likely?
