    Me too. I've ripped Nene more times than I can count. My nickname for him is "doughboy".

    I'm not trying to bust anybody ... Carl Herrera is fine. I'm just trying to pass this along since others do it as well.

    I still can't believe the idiot did that.

    I'm curious to see if you guys think 2 games is fair. I honestly thought he'd get one (and deserved one). 2 seems a little harsh to me, but if Nene wouldn't have put himself in that position the NBA wouldn't have been able to do anything.

    And to clarify, I'm not a conspiracy theorist on this one. There are some Nugs fans saying this proves the NBA hates us. Those people are stupid.

    Considering intent, that is what got Doughboy 2 games. If it's a non-basketball play, Stern gets severe. All teams have their segment of "stupid" fans who think nearly everything that happens against their team is conspiratorial. Rockets have more than their share.

    I don't think NeNe is a dirty player.

    Didn't Zach Randolph punch Amundson in the face a few weeks back? I think it's possible that Amundson instigates stuff like this. If he didn't, NeNe definitely deserves the suspension.

    But, if Amundson is the cause of incidents like this, I can't imagine what the next assault will be.

    The nuggets have fake tough guys?!?!?!?!?

    The nuggets have nothing but fake ass wannabe.

    Carmelo "backpaddling" Anthony
    "headbutt" Nene
    Kenyon Martin. Okay so I can't think of a clever nick name, but could this guy try any harder to look tough?
    And whats up JR Smith. I don't know him personally, but the dude looks high and the fake toughness of the whole team is rubbing off on him too.

    Careful. Cancer jokes aren't particularly funny to a lot of posters around here, me being one of them.

    Is there a video of this online? ESPN only have footage of Nene throwing an elbow and Amundson flopping.

    Good point. The intent probably got him the extra game.

    Ask Corey Maggette and T-mac if they think Kenyon Martin just tries to be tough.

    Kenyon, JR and Melo all annoy the hell out of me with their Thuggets mentality.

    Refresh my memory if you don't mind. I don't remember an incidents between Kmart and Maggette or Tslack.

    No way, a power forward picking on a couple of shooting guards. He must be tough as they come. :rolleyes:
