Stan Van Gundy calls out David Stern & Stu Jackson
Halu Sination:
Stan Van Gundy said on Friday that he didn't necessarily disagree with the suspension to Rafer Alston, but he felt Rajon Rondo also should have been suspended for whacking Chicago's Brad Miller in the head in the closing seconds of Game 5 of the Celtics' first-round series.
The Orlando coach went as far as saying NBA executive vice president of basketball operations Stu Jackson and commissioner David Stern were the "only ones" who didn't think Rondo should have been suspended.
"I think it's clear in the rule book that that's what is called for," Van Gundy said about Alston's suspension. "The question everybody has is, 'Why when Brad Miller is going to the hoop, can you just take a swing?' You know, the only ones I think that agree that he didn't wind up and follow through were Stu Jackson and David Stern. I think everybody else, including Boston fans, know he wound up and followed through."

Don Jacob:
rondo's foul was honestly the worst foul (harmful) foul of the playoffs
dwight howard threw an air elbow and got a susp
raefer threw a love tap to houses head and got a susp
fisher committed a moving screen flagrant foul and busted HIS own head and got a susp
rondo cost a game winning shot from occuring, and knocked a 7 foot big man unconscious and got a flagrant 1
stupid very stupid.

They didn't even call flagrant during the game, if they did, Bulls probably would have won.
