Thanks kobe I agree there were hard fouls on both sides in all four games...this foul was no worse than many others for both teams a flagrant foul was called giving Shaq two freethrows and the ball back a suspension from the league is insane.

Josh a flagrant foul does not equal suspension I agree it was a flagrant foul..Shaq also got a flagrant in an earlier game...a flagrant gets you free throws and the ball back its not an automatic suspension.

yes Dave a star player was suspended...no whining here my friend..the whining has been done..just mentioning the facts that Stacks foul should not have merited a suspension ...tis isnt an automatic win pal Dallas has plenty of depth...still doesnt make it right....I'm sure Miami would feel the same way if it were one of there key players point made.

it should have been a flagrant for stack but he should not have gotten suspended. The league should have made sure that it was really a big deal to take such a key player out at a crucial point in the series. They should have done it like they do in hockey (which I'm not really a fan of) where in the last part of play you have to do a heck of a lot to get a penalty. The league should have realized that shaq didn't get hurt and doesn't need them to come in and take care of him by taking stack out for one game. It was a flagrant but it shouldn't be a suspension
FREE STACKHOUSE!

Well, here's the thing. When you're dealing with a guy as big and strong as Shaq, some things look worse than they are. I personally don't think they should suspend players for hard fouls ESPECIALLY IN THE NBA FINALS! One suspension could decide the whole series. Stackhouse is one of two guys for Dallas who have been consistent through every game of this series.(Jason Terry) And besides, Stack didn't mean any harm. Anyone knows it's hard to stop 320 pounds at full speed without a hard foul...

Shaq's fouls were not flagrant. Stack was looking to put Shaq on the ground to get him mad enough to commit his 2nd technical foul and be ejected from the game. As it turned out, Wade covered Shaq and Antoine Walker got the T, but it was a lame move by Stackhouse and he deserves the suspension.
Long time ref Dick Bavetta made the call. He's been refereeing NBA games for over 30 years and is one of the most respected officials in theleague's history, I would not question his judgement.

Shaq elbowed and pushed on the sneeky sly all the game.... I don't think that Stackhouse intend for the foul to be that flagrant, for big guys like Shaq anything less that power is useless..Shaq expects hard fouls and he gets them often..Suspension was over exaggerated...they probably were just trying to avoid Shaq retailiating on the Sunday game...Its all a bunch of bull anyway. Refs do what they want to do regardless.

kobe's heir, thats the point, he should not have tried if h couldnt just commit a clean foul. And stackhouse should have thought to himself before he commited that flagrant foul, hmm im one of only 2 players that are consistent, how would commiting this flagrant affect my teams chances. Its all his fault, and shaq is just playing the game, when he is backing people down, they ru into his elbows, and flop most of the time.

HAHA, give the big man some room, yeah he's swining his elbows butchou gotta move right? Stackhouse's foul was difinetely flagrant worthy. Especailly at the pro level. All he really had to do was rape his arms, but he got airborn an jumped into him. Shaq doesnt belong in the NBA, hed be scary *** lineman

I think it's amazing what Shaq and the Heat can get away with but when the Mavericks do any lil thing they get suspended.

Stop crying, no star player is going to be suspended unless there is a fight. It's the NBA finals you idiot.
