Jamal Murray needs to be suspended (Update: fined $100K, no suspension)

Had the refs done their jobs and threw him out of the game, I believe he might have evaded a suspension. But since they didn't, it probably will happen. Then again, they've been eerily silent about Pat Bev since Thursday night.

Did Anthony Edwards get suspended for throwing a chair and hitting 2 women last year?

Ban from rest of 2024 playoffs win or lose this series. If anyone here has had the misfortune of playing basketball with pos who throw something like a shirt onto the court causing you to slip off of it and sprain / tear your mcl and ankle …. Then you know the deal. This is as dirty as it gets in basketball the only goal here is to injure a player. I’ve seen it before and it’s happened to me.

Inexcusable absolutely inexcusable

Never suspend someone in the playoffs for something so trivial.

i think the NBA will do the right thing as Minnesota has this wrapped up anyway.

Let’s see what the nba does. Nba rigged if they don’t. Suspending murray, guarantees a win for the wolves. Well, murray or not, i think they get swept anyways.

That deserves a game suspension. You absolutely can't be throwing items onto the floor during live play.

Adam knows Nuggets are cooked completely if he does it. He wants the revenue of a longer series.

Logically, this should be a clear cut call.

Give him a couple to start next year along with a warning that next time he's out of the playoffs completely. No need to alter the series over this in such a way.

Besides, at this point I'm pretty sure making him play the Wolves twice more in Minnesota is gonna be way worse than any suspension.

Suspend him from what?

Shouldn't be suspended but should've been a tech

NBA has a big problem for the balance of these playoffs if they don’t suspend Murray for 1 game. It will be open season for other players

He could easily have caused a serious injury. I don't recall ever seeing a player throwing something out on the floor during live play. It was right in the middle of the action too. Silver can't set a precedent that the punishment for an action like this is a fine.

It’s not just about the potential danger; it's fundamentally about maintaining law and order. Whether it's hazardous or not, we absolutely cannot condone people throwing objects at eachother.

dolphinatik · Post #96 » by **dolphinatik** » Tue May 7, 2024 11:34 am

Lets not wait for an career ending injury before we consider this dangerous. this is absolutely dangerous and aa player stepped on it. Could have been a knee or ankle easy. I dont see what the discussion is , has to be suspended at least two.

A big fine = no punishment. This was incredibly dangerous.

I get it and agree to an extent, but I do think a big enough fine is definitely a punishment. My problem is that a suspension is punishing more than just Murray and even the organization. It punishes everyone, including non-Nuggets fans who want to see both teams are their best. I just don't care for suspensions especially in the playoffs.

This is a stupid take.

What if a Wolves player had slipped on that? How does that not punish everyone based on your logic? GTFO here with that ****.

Trivial??

How?!

Any number of players could have been injured by landing/slipping on that heat pack. Then how trivial is it if someone blows a knee and misses months?

Embiid should've been suspended, but wasn't....so we'll see.
