    howard is suspended for the next game
    i just saw the news that howard is probably going to be suspended for the next game against sixers because he was caught elbowing dalembert in todays' game.

      Hammer Philly. W/o Howard orlando has struggled all year with zero interior offense or defense. Play the opening line immediately.

        Notice that line hasn't been released. These lines have been coming out w/in a hour of games ending. The line may lend its self to a 76ers ML. I don't think 76ers are favs even at home??

            everyone listen to houlihans and slow the hell down. wait, see, and do everything in your power to not be baited into taking the 76ers against your will.

                        Dwight Howard, who had 24 points, 24 boards and two blocks, became entangled with Philadelphia center Samuel Dalembert during Tuesday's game and struck Dalembert in the head with his elbow, earning a technical foul. Rotoworld sources at NBA TV feel confident that Howard will be suspended for Game 6, although nothing is set in stone. Sixers coach Tony DiLeo spent much of his press conference ripping Howard for the fact he's allowed to camp out in the lane, and you have to think the league will at least take a second look at the play prior to Thursday's Game 6. The Magic are currently up 3-2 in the series. Source: Orlando Sentinel

                            The 76ers are going to win game 6 anyway with or without Dwight Howard l0l.

                              He also knocked out his teammate, Courtney Lee, and Lee will miss Game 6 because of it.

                                Although it wouldn't surprise me if Howard doesn't get suspended, this series is going to go to 7 games.

                                  If Howard gets suspended then Rondo should be to. For taking down Brad Miller on purpose after he was already beat to the basket with no way to make a play on the ball. It was a cheap shot and it should have been a tech in my mind, and I wanted Boston to win.

                                    After listening to Kenny Smith and Big Chuck last night on TNT and watching the play there is NO DOUBT HE WILL GET SUSPENDED.

                                    I agree with Sports Terminator, Philly wins the game straight whether Howard plays or not.

                                        brad miller also hit glen davis on the face on game4. it was a close fist and heard nothing. just a tech and no fine. so an elbow is lesser crime for me

                                              Orlando 2-1 SU without Howard this year.

                                              The big factor is if they lose Howard and Lee can't play, those are their best 2 defenders. The lane will be gashed by Philly.

                                                brad miller bumped his shoulder into baby's face, and then davis flopped like he just got head butted by an mma fighter. millers hand didnt even make contact with baby. it looked more like an awkward altercation than something suspension worthy.

                                                swinging an elbow that high and making contact is an automatic suspension. nba will lose all credibility if its not.

                                                  Its going to be rediculous to suspend Howard for that elbow that did not connect and was not even given a flagrant. Howard has been mauled the entire series by Philly who sends body after body out there to foul him.

                                                  If they do suspend Howard, he will come back with a vengence in game 7.

                                                  corona the elbow did not connect, I've seen the replay 5 times. And it wasn't a malicious elbow it was more like a get off my freaking back elbow.

                                                      Its official, he is suspended, look at NBA.com.

                                                      I didnt see Dalembert's head move at all, in fact he didn't even stop running until the official blew the whistle.

                                                          It really doesnt affect the outcome of the series. Magic at home for a game 7 that they will be favored by 8, and a pissed off Dwight Howard. Good luck philly.

                                                            And guys, the howard and lee absenses will be built into the opening lines. The line may still move but probably because of squares thinking they are the only ones who know howard and lee will miss the game.

                                                              I didnt see Dalembert's head move at all, in fact he didn't even stop running until the official blew the whistle.
                                                              he didnt even have a chance to start running. he was busy grabbing his head in pain.



                                                              you're blind if you can't see dalemberts head snap to the right as howard makes contact.

                                                              if he missed, why did the nba suspend him?
