If you get suspended in the NBA, do you still get payed?

[MetalMat]

I was wondering if Artest will still be getting a pay check if he gets suspended for the rest of the year.

 

[Dedpuhl]

nope. They all lost cash.

 

[GasX]

No, kind of like when you skip English class and you don't get grade

 

[Mike2002]

Nope. He is suspended without pay.

 

[dethman]

no, and it's "paid."

 

[GprophetB]

Artest is about to get paid big when his album drops

lol

 

[Dedpuhl]

lost salary from the brawl:


Ron Artest $4,995,000
Stephen Jackson $1,700,000
Jermaine O'Neal $4,111,000
Ben Wallace $400,000
Anthony Johnson $122,222
Reggie Miller $61,111
Chauncey Billups $60,611
Derrick Coleman $50,000

He will lose about 5 million due to the suspension from what I have heard in the news.

Wow he must be p*ssed at himself! I know I would..

Not that I like reggie miller, but he definitely got the shaft.

 

[GrumpyMan]

And this doesn't count the lawsuits that are also coming soon.

Reggie left the bench during the initial fight, automatic 1 game suspension....he's hurt anyway...they will just say he's ready to go a game before he really is, so in effect he really won't miss a game at all

 

[PhoenixOrion]

He'll lose more....once the 3 fans bring in their legalese.
