- redscofield, on 05/15/2008, -0/+4i'm also in dallas... i saw Dirk the other day... spending his off-season at Blue Fish with family and friends...
i wish i would have seen him on TNT playing...
I am a laker fan for life, however, and can't wait for kobe to get his next ring... - incubusbeatsall, on 05/15/2008, -0/+2Now all those sports fans on digg that don't normally follow sports can totally be up to date with... sports!

lol... dont get much of good sports often :) - hybridcreation, on 05/15/2008, -1/+12He shouldn't have even been ejected. It was just a hard foul.
- cawpin, on 05/15/2008, -0/+4Yep, there is nothing flagrant about that foul. It was a little man hitting a big man and the little man lost. It sucks that he cut his eye but there was nothing malicious or intentional about the hit.
- hybridcreation, on 05/15/2008, -0/+1Turiaf's arm coming down right as Price was falling is what made it look worse than it really was. Made it looked like he pushed him, when he was just trying to block his shot.

- Skitzzo, on 05/15/2008, -4/+3Seriously, what the hell is this doing on the FP? It's a blog post (and a crappy one at that) about something that happened days ago. I could MAYBE see this hitting the front page if it were from a sports news source but this is ridiculous.
- seanmanseanman, on 05/15/2008, -1/+1News that is 3 days old is not news, or frontpage worthy. Sports section is lulz.
- SnuKs, on 05/15/2008, -0/+5Flagrant 2 was a bit excessive. It was a hard foul, but what do you expect when you have a smaller guy like Price collide with a bigger one in midair? The gash above his eye is probably the reason they called it. Everything thing was cool after wards too when Ronny gave Price dabs and apologized before shooting the free throws.
- ScottoGato, on 05/15/2008, -0/+4This shouldn't even be considered a flagrant foul. He went for the ball, but the ball was moving and he brought his arm down. This is the result when a small guard tries to go to the rim where there are power forwards and centers. The game has lost all of its physical play. If these guys don't want to get thrown around on the ground, don't leave your feet when you have big 7 foot, 250 pound guys ready to knock your ***** down.
- satanatnmtedu, on 05/15/2008, -0/+4If they didn't suspend Posey for grabbing Lebron around the neck on a layup, they weren't going to suspend anyone else for lesser fouls.

- hybridcreation, on 05/15/2008, -1/+3Not geeky enough for you? Miss the Digg of yesterday? Well, that's what happens when your secret little site becomes one of the most popular on the Internet. Adapt or don't....but bitching will get you nowhere.
- BridgeBurner, on 05/15/2008, -1/+3I didn't see a flagrant foul. I saw numb nut Price jump up in the air, the two of them collided and Price fell on his ass. I didn't see any intentional action by Turiaf that made Price end up on the floor crying like a little bitch.
- yammy1688, on 05/15/2008, -0/+1This was a ***** call.
- upick, on 05/16/2008, -0/+2common that look hard but not a flagrant!
