all evidence points to the fact that he pretty much told his team to foul hard in the paint, which instigated the brawl. he told anthony "don't go to the basket right now" seconds before the foul took place, as seen on ESPN, hinting as if something bad was going to take place. unfortunately without any hard evidence that he asked collins to do that, he got away with it. i've hated that guy since he was a player.

Yet again the NBA dishes out light punishments.
The NBA is a jungle gym, monkey experiment that is failing. Lock them all back up in the zoo. 😛

15 games to Melo for throwing one damn punch? That's f'ing criminal and should be appealed immediately by the players union. Its 20% of the season, equal to 3 games in the NFL and 32 games in the MLB. (and of course would be 0 suspension in the NHL.)
Stern once again oversteps his bounds in an effort to be godfather by imposing his capital punishment for anything that brings negative press to his pansified league. Yes, Stu Jackson is in charge of punishment, altho is nothing less than Stern's call girl in these matters.
I would have liked to see Thomas suspended and fined - he's the one who threatened melo and no doubt encouraged this fiasco.

How is it sucker punching when someone takes a swing at someone else they're jibing with face to face? :roll: When the dude crumbled like a cookie I think Melo knew he screwed up and did the right thing by backpedaling and not pummeling scrawny Jeffries too. To question Melo's toughness is rather ignorant imo.
F**K, Melo is anchoring my fantasy team. I also have JR Smith and Camby AND Curry. I'm lucky it's only melo and jr.
That being said, I don't think 15 games is bad. A punch is a punch and I think stern is on the right track w/ the suspensions for fighting. The automatic technical foul for expressing any emotion after a foul is the biggest thing he did wrong this season. Emotion is part of the game, violence is not.
