		<description><![CDATA[I cannot they suspended Stackhouse.  This is totally uncalled for and such a disgrace to the league, team fans, everyone...The refs did not see this as even a flagrant 2, and Shaq has nailed several of our players in the face, including Stackhouse.Why punish a whole team, city, and all of the fans for one man&#039;s controversial mistake.  He was only trying to motivate his team and play hard, that&#039;s it.  If they think it is worth a penalty, why not fine him instead of punishing everyone, including NBA fans?  This is a total disgrace, and the NBA is only hurting their own product.How a team can have three conversial suspensions in the playoffs is beyond me.  There was a guy on the Nuggets grabbing Kamin&#039;s undershorts, and he wasn&#039;t even suspended.  These suspensions are being tossed out like candy, and it is really rediculuous, to say the least. Something needs to be done about this nonsense, and they virtually tie everyone&#039;s hands...maybe congress needs to get involved...MLB has a steroid problem and the NBA has a suspension problem...LOL!P.S. You can send comments to the NBA also..http://www.nba.com/webAction?actionId=surveyInitialize&amp;target=/email_us/email_form_041027.jsp&amp;surveyId=1152]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I wouldn&#039;t worry too much about Sacramento.  I am sure they will find a way to blow it.  At Dallas games you can pass out Tyra Banks masks.  Or, you could do the &quot;white out&quot; thing with white t-shirts, but make sure they say TIME OUT in big letters so that Webber can read them.  Just as long as someone beats the Lakers, I don&#039;t care.  The Lakers are synonymous with the Yankees.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Thanks for posting the clarification.  The key is the rim, brother.  Tell Stu to clarify the rules and make anything that doesn&#039;t hit the rim a pass.Champions don&#039;t think much about who they play in which round because they know they can take all comers.  (Of course business men care about getting the best matchups on the best TV slots, so we&#039;ll give you that one)GO MAVS!!!!!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[You don&#039;t need a specific rule that passing to yourself off the backboard is illegal.  The backboard is inbounds.  Passing to yourself off the backboard is the same thing as passing to yourself at midcourt.I guess the only question is if you manage to do it while still only taking your two steps (disclaimer - I didn&#039;t see the replay of Kobe&#039;s pass, so I don&#039;t know if he did).  If you only take the two steps you&#039;re allowed before a shot and you catch the ball in the air like an alley-oop, I&#039;m not sure what the ruling would be.  You haven&#039;t moved any more than you are allowed.  The only advantage you&#039;ve possibly gained is fooling the defense.]]></description>
