C******s 发帖数: 813 | 1 Will Paul George be suspended for step onto court during tussle
With 19 seconds remaining in the first half Thursday night, Indiana Pacers
guard George Hill and Atlanta Hawks reserve Mike Scott got into a staring-
then-shoving contest.
Their actions drew a technical foul on each, but in the heat of their
showdown, Pacers star Paul George and Rasual Butler -- who were both not in
the game -- made small steps onto the court. They remained near the bench.
According to NBA rules: "During an altercation, all players not
participating in the game must remain in the immediate vicinity of their
bench. Violators will be suspended, without pay, for a minimum of one game
and fined up to $50,000."
The Pacers beat the Hawks 95-88, forcing a Game 7 in Indianapolis on
Saturday night.
The most famous implementation of this rule was in 2007 when the Phoenix
Suns' Amare Stoudemire and Boris Diaw were suspended after moving toward an
altercation between the Spurs' Robert Horry and Phoenix's Steve Nash in Game
4. San Antonio won Game 5 and closed out the series in Game 6.
"The rule with respect to leaving the bench area during an altercation is
very clear," said NBA executive vice president of basketball operations Stu
Jackson at the time. "Historically, if you break it, you will get suspended,
regardless of what the circumstances are."
"This is a very unfortunate incident but the rule is the rule. It's not a
matter of fairness. It's a matter of correctness, and this is the right
decision." | J********9 发帖数: 36508 | 2 希伯特雄起
