    I thought it was going to be way worse.

    ...Paul suspended for two games. I'm good with it that he was not unscathed.

    Paul and Rondo should have got equal number of games. I don’t think Paul had a lesser role in causing the fight than Rondo.

    BI getting the most out of all players was expected. I thought BI would have got 5 games and CP3/Rondo got 3 games each

    Me, too. At least 5 for BI I thought. CP3 and Rondo should have been equal.

    It’s costing CP3 a lot more money than the other two combined, so there’s that.

    We will miss Rondo for sure, but hopefully we can win without him. Lonzo to the rescue!

    Definitely expected worse. The media was piling on as usual. Rondo and Paul should have been equal but overall we got off light here.

    I think it being a first real offense helped Ingram out.

    if you had asked me before the game that I could left hook CP3 in the face for 3 games, I would have immediately went into the visitors locker room and done it before the game even started.

    If someone did spit in my face, i would go at him MUCH harder than Paul did. Guy is soft... i would honestly go Artest on Rondo.

    3 games is less than I expected, especially if he spat at Paul's direction.

    With that said, Paul should have been suspended 3 games too.

    No Paul fan but he came back furiously swinging at him with multiple players holding him back and his arms. Unless Rondo's a great boxer Paul would overwhelm him I think.

    Rondo would deck Paul under 30 seconds, trust me ;)

    Like wanting to land a barrage of punches after Rondo threw the left? He was restrained by multiple guys while trying to throw. Ehh but you might be right. He just looks to be the stronger guy.

    CP3 may be a p****, but Rondo screwed up here. Spitting on people is a no bueno. Rondo is a dirtbag for that.

    Spitting on p****** is standard procedure.

    EDIT: clever but inappropriate. Added spoiler for you. - TIME
