Code:11/21/04The NBA came down hard with the suspensions for Friday's Ind-Det brawl thatinvolved players going into the stands and punches being exchanged betweenplayers and fans. Ron Artest (Ind) was suspended for the rest of the season(72 games). Stephen Jackson (Ind) was suspended for 30 games. JermaineO'Neal (Ind) was suspended for 25 games. Those total suspensions are uppedby 1 game as they do not include Saturday's Ind-Orl game. The PlayersAssociation has already stated that they will appeal those 3 suspensions andan arbitrator may eventually reduce the length of those suspensions. All 3threw punches at fans and Artest and Jackson went into the stands. AnthonyJohnson (Ind) was suspended 6 games - he was the player in street clotheswho punched a fan on the court right after Artest and the fan had aconfrontation. His suspension will not start until he is physically able toplay. Ben Wallace (Det) was suspended for 6 games for his two handed shove to Artest's face during the game and for throwing a towel at Artest after the players had been separated. Elden Campbell (Det), Chauncey Billups (Det), Derrick Coleman (Det), and Reggie Miller (Ind) were suspended for 1 game for leaving the bench during the on court altercation between Wallace and Artest. Artest, Jackson, and O'Neal will be listed on a suspended list so Indiana will be able to sign players for their spots while the players are suspended (and, thus, exceed the 15 player roster maximum).Commissioner David Stern: "The penalties issued today deal only with one aspect of this incident that of player misconduct. The actions of the players involved wildly exceeded the professionalism and self-control that should fairly be expected from NBA players. We must affirm that the NBA will strive to exemplify the best that can be offered by professional sports, and not allow our sport to be debased by what seem to be declining expectations for behavior of fans and athletes alike."Stern: "To watch the out-of-control fans in the stands was disgusting. It doesn't excuse our players from going into the stands."
Unbelievable. I remember when I saw that the guy who started he whole thing was suspended for less than a week while the scapegoat was suspended for the entire season.

This had me 3/13/95The NBA has cleared Richard Dumas (Pho) to resume playing in theleague. Dumas had been suspended without pay by the league forviolating the league's anti-drug policy. Phoenix has 7 daysto activate Dumas, else he becomes a free agent. [Don't lookfor Phoenix to activate him.]3/14/95Apparently Phoenix has done a complete 180 on the Richard Dumassituation. Despite comments in that past that Dumas would neverplay for Phoenix again, Phoenix activated Dumas from the suspendedlist and he played 2 minutes and scored 4 points in last night'sgame vs Detroit. To make room for Dumas, Phoenix placed WaymanTisdale on IR with a strained left rib.And this1/5/95Golden State suspended Latrell Sprewell for one game for missing practice.12/29/94New Jersey fined Kenny Anderson $500 for missing Wednesday's practice.12/26/94Minnesota suspended Isaiah Rider for Monday's game vs LA Clippers forviolating team rules.
