NBAPA certainly would fight it with everything they had.
In any case, this one's going back to Denver 2-2 despite 51 points on 19/29 shooting from Jokic. Booker and Durant were almost as good themselves tonight. [Reply]

Yes. Series over if they do. Likely a different story if it were in regular season. I still like Denver in this series. IF they suspend him, I'm out dough. [Reply]

He shouldn't and he won't. If anything, the owner should be barred from sitting courtside like the Warriors' idiot owner who shoved Lowry in 2019. Don't get involved in the play, it isn't that hard. [Reply]

Owner didn't want to release the ball so that Denver couldn't get a fast break basket and then completely flopped to draw a technical after confronting Jokic. Nothing is gonna happen to Jokic. [Reply]

yeah that's my point, owner initiated first and is clearly at fault [Reply]

Regardless whether the owner/fan is being an idiot you can’t go into a crowd and start shoving people. That could have escalated real quick.
If this was the regular season he would definitely be suspended. [Reply]

If a fan is not releasing the ball and confronting you, sure you can. He's not getting suspended for that "shove" and I don't know why anybody would think differently. [Reply]

Regular season he definitely is getting suspended. It is no different than what Davante Adams did. He is lucky thee owner is super rich and seemed ok if that was a regular fan charges would be pressed and lawsuit happening.
