I like Melo, but I think the league needs to send a clear message that type of behavior won't be tolerated. People go to games with their kids and they don't wanna see that. It sends the wrong message.

yes. his "after-the initial-outburst-punch" was not caused by adrenalin rush. A mental process was already involved.

Its not justified. I am not a big Denver fan nor a Knicks fan. But if Anthony was suspended 15 days, I think Nate Robinson & Isaiah Thomas must be suspended longer. They started it all.
They should make a movie:
THE BRAWL:
Isaiah Thomas is "The Producers",
Robinson is "The Ant Bully"
Collins is "The Assassin"
James is the "The Bench Warmer"
Anthony is "The Crow"
JR Smith is "The Incredible"
Karl is "The Good Shepherd"
Larry Brown is "The Godfather"
Stern is "The Apocalypse"

Totally justified, when it happened, I thought he'd get 20, but Stern took it easy on him.
Things had calmed down and the fight was basically over when Anthony decided to throw a sucker punch. That just ignited things again.
wtf was Anthony thinking anyway? Did he not think anyone would notice?
I have to admit, it was funny seeing him run away from Nate Robinson at mid-court after he threw his punch... LOL.. hey Carmelo, I thought you were a man! You're 6'8", Robinson's 5'9"...

i think of it substitute into easy that he have been given suspended for 15 video games by using fact he did no longer ought to punch the dude. it particularly is how i could have did it gave him 15 video games postponing for the punch, and 5 greater video games for working like slightly lady after he did it.

I think its harsh but David Stern seems wanted to give a stern warning to all NBA player that the consequences will be dire if this ever happens again.
