for those of you that didnt see it, darius songaila was suspended for "punching" lebron in the face.
i was watching it and PLEASE!
i've seen harder hits with a no call, much less suspension.
whats more, it was OBVIOUSLY not intentional.
i think this is one of the stupidest moves i've seen, particularly in light of KGs non suspension for a more deliberate, and harder hit.
the only leg they have to stand on here is that the tap landed on lebron's face. lebron totally overreacted when it happened and so did the announcers (well, one of em). the guy kept talking about how bad of a punch it was, and i seriously thought it was a joke.
i'd like to know what you guys thought of that, cause i'm floored. if it was the other way around, and lebron had accidentally tapped Darius Songwhothehellisthisguya on the cheek, i am certain there is NO WAY he would be suspended. i call BALONEY BEANS!

JVG said the same thing- that the call was BS, and if it was the exact same play with the palces of Lebron and Songalia witch, no way Lebron would ahve been suspended.
I watched the play a bunch. And it was really hard for me to tell exactly what happened. Lebron definately had that arm hooked, and may have hooked it right into his own face. Or maybe Songalia extended his arm at the very end of that tangle up and caught lebron in the face. I never really made up my mind on how intentional it was. But it definately was not a punch.
Though, the washington coach said there was no way that was intentional, and i don't think he was feeding us bull.
