Karl Malone got suspended for elboing Steve Nash in the mouth last night. To me it didnt look like he did it on purpose. He was just looking to pass after securing a rebound.

Oh well the mailman just won't deliver against Utah then!

It's not the first time he's been suspended for a stray elbow. Unfortunate timing, seeing as though he'll miss the Utah game.

This wasn't an intentional elbow like many others. He was just turning and trying to pass. I'm not surprised because the last time Malone was suspended, it was for a slight backhand against Laetner when he was with the Mavs. Cuban and his crybaby club keeps whining to the league because they're probably the softest and weakest team in the NBA. It's a shame Malone won't be able to play against the Jazz.

thats just dumb, Karl wanted to protect the ball and look for a pass then this dumbass tries to steal it....I think its quite obvious that its not that smart to walk run after the ball when a player is swinging his elbow....And Mark should STFU. suspend someone because of that? while fatass Danny Fortson breaks someones wrist and gets suspended for only 3 games? :?

The league has always been inconsistant, remember marcus camby throw a punch that didnt hit danny ferry? Camby got 5 games, then Shaq threw a punch at brad miller and missed and shaq only got 3 games :crazy:
