Does anyone know when the league will make a ruling on this?

Today around 4 or 5 eastern is the typical timeframe. They like to give a team at least one day's notice.

based on watching what occurred, it looked very intentional.  The puffing out of the chest makes an claims of unintentional look pretty bogus.  

figuring it'll be a 1 game suspension.  Hoping the C's use this as more fuel to come out fired up next game.  If the rest of the team actually shows up and performs to their capabilities, they can win game 2.  it won't be easy but Dooling and Bradley have got to step into the breach at PG.

I don't think it was that intentional and saw the foot tangleup.  He should have walked away not towards the ref.  I think an intentional bump would have been a lot harder with a dropped shoulder for more impact.   Puffed out chest or no, a dropped shoulder is how to bump someone hard and he didn't do that.

Rondo incident was  "NBA ROADRAGE"

His careless actions and emotions got the best of him .  Simular how accidents occur when angered drivers lose it, then  tailgate to get their point across.

Following somebody around on their heels while mad is a recipe for disaster in a tense situation.

Rondo deserves punishment of a suspension , for nothing else but putting his team in this situation and letting them down in so "MANY WAYS" and being "STUPID"

Yes Rondo wears the "DUNCE HAT" for this display of non professional outburst.

Maybe he should watch a tape CP3 lead his team back without getting thrown out of the game.

Called keeping a COOL HEAD.

Angelic, always cool, never whining Chris Paul:

Enough with the double standards and candy coated idealization of CP3 and others.
