    No. Which is why these suspensions are stupid for both. Stewart didn't hit or punch anyone and LeBron inadvertent elbowed him.

    Saw a couple of other things with Stewart. Giannis got upset with him and had words with him after one of there games. He is in his second year and is getting into s*** with the top players. He may be slightly more than a scrub, S L I G H T L Y ! ! ! ! He should probably quit being a d***. Honestly, after seeing his antics with other teams, I am beginning to wonder if Lebron didn't actually do that on purpose. ????? If I was big enough, I might have pondered it myself.

    You do realize that up to half the women that are killed in the U.S., die at the hands of a husband, boyfriend or EX with these kinds of “little temper tantrum’s”. Just recently there was a video of some football player throwing a girl across a room. The guys on the court are certainly able to take care of themselves (except for dirty plays). If there are women or children at home, they might not be as lucky with an out of control temper guy like that.

    I don't think it's going to be an issue in the next game at all. Stewart has put a big spotlight on himself moving forward. Whatever latitude that he's been giving for physical play will be gone IMO. The officials are going to scrutinize every little thing he does from here on out. It's not like he's some kind of star, I think he will actually go out of his way to avoid any kind of unnecessary contact with James.

    Not to mention you mind melded with him through your TV and knew what he really was thinking in that last “episode”.

    You can see it however you want. I think he flipped out but he sure pulled up when he saw a big dude in his way. That's what it was, watch the video. He wasn't hell bent on getting to James at all cost, if he was, he would have charged right through Jordan too. That's my take, he got what he deserved intentional or not. That kid has been wilding with that rough house stuff for a minute. He tried to debo James, got popped, he flipped. Made a clown show out of the situation. His act will get a lot more attention moving forward. Blake, Giannis, Lebron...bout time somebody checked him, even though I don't think James meant to hit him in the face, he did mean to whack him though. The dude isn't some kind of victim in the situation. He might have charged James if it was only coaches in his way, might not have turned out as he expected either. I still say that mad as he was, he wanted zero parts of DeAndre Jordan.

    if stewart wants to be blacklisted from the NBA forever, then maybe he'll consider taking a cheap shot at lebron in the next meeting

    there's no reason to sit lebron that game

    I think one of either Lebron or Stewart should sit. I’d rather that Detroit give Stewart a DNP and just have him stay at the hotel. Given his irrationality on display the other day I think he’s a huge risk. He told them he was ok like three times and each time broke away to try to chase Lebron. What’s keeping that from happening again? I don’t want to risk it. I’d hope that Detroit would squash that but in a worst case scenario I would sit Lebron. It’s just not worth the chance of injury.

    He was in the heat of the moment with blood pumping out of his face. You were never irrational for a brief moment of time? Give the man a break. They are both pros and Lebron is a goat, they will play just fine

    The Lakers and Lebron would get killed in the media by sitting Lebron. Talk about a soft narrative, besides, I don't think he's all that crazy despite that show he put on. I saw a clip of him and Trez having a little incident last year, Trez stepped to him and he didn't want any smoke. I see Giannis stepping to him after a game, he didn't want any smoke face to face then either. It would be a bad look either way. It would make us look soft, and it would make Detroit look like that can’t control him.

    What does this have to do with me? And why should I give a break to a guy who said he was fine and calm and then broke away every time to chase down Lebron, not once, not twice, he actually did it 4 times? That’s not ok. Honestly I think he got off easy with 2 games suspension. I think it should have been more like 4 or 5. That’s crazy behavior. He pushed down his trainer, knocked down refs. He was out of control like I’ve hardly ever seen before. He’s too young and headstrong IMO to be put back into position to exact possible revenge. There’s a good adage- better safe than sorry that I think could apply here.

    Well thank Kermit Washington for his unfortunate crushing of Rudy T’s face. Sorry it’s not fun like that any more.

    That was a long time before any of those clips occurred, so I'm confused as to the point you are trying to make.

    Lol..hey let's point to the death of Jesse James, as the end of the gangster era. But we are making that comment during the reign of AL Capone?
