Garnett Was Suspended for This? WTF?!?!

I didn't catch the Celtics game on Saturday so I am a little behind the curve in finding out about the "incident" involving Kevin Garnett and Andrew Bogut.  I am pretty sure I never would have heard about it had KG not been suspended for this garbage.  Are you kidding me?  This happens all the time during an NBA game.  Shaq just leveled Rodney Stuckey and he only got fined.  That was a REALLY hard foul and a hell of a lot worse than what KG did. Compare this to the KG video above and they're not even close.  I guess Shaq got the fine for arguing with the refs and not for the actual foul.  Wow.   

 

There has to be something more to this or the league is just getting really soft.  Maybe this is a way for them to get back at KG for taunting Jose Calderon a few games back.  They must have seen the replay and got pissed about how much attention it was receiving through blogs and YouTube.

The higher ups in the NBA offices need to relax a bit or they are going to change the aggressiveness of the game for the worst.  Everyone will start easing up on defense because they will be worried about a suspension or fine for just a hard foul.  Sometimes tempers flare, trash talk heats up and scuffles ensue.  This wasn't even a "fight" between KG and Bogut since there was barely any contact.  WTF?  The NBA just needs to take a bong hit and chill, yo!
