Just saw the elbow he threw at Miller. Definitely a dirty shot and in the throat area too. He should have gotten more than 2 games.
He has been targeted for flagarent fouls on more than one occasion and those players havent been suspended. I think the suspension is ridiculous. I like it when players show some intensity and make it a point to show other players that they are not going to take any $hit.
It is hard to fail, but it is worse never to have tried to succeed.

It would have been different if he had pulled down a rebound or was going for a loose ball and swung an elbow to create space, but to just throw a forearm into another players throat is dirty. If you want to show intensity and protect your goal a clean hard foul while making a play on the ball is effective.

Its not like he actually swung his elbow violently and hit the guy, he kind of just put it out there and let him run into it... [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Basketball is a game where, if reffed right Kobe , should never have to hack anyone in the throat with an elbow. It ain't like he is an excited high school kid, he does this for a living. "I got tired of the drillman not bolting to suit me so I left a coupla rocks hangin' for him" - the game should never be allowed to get this sloppy.

I was listening to the ESPN Radio yesterday and they aired an interview with Bryant and he never showed any remorse, said that he would do it again, with or without the suspension. He also concentrated his entire effort of the interview to tell the reporter that he had been clotheslined once in the lane, no foul being called and no suspension, and that he felt the league had singled him out for this one infraction.
