I expect him to get some burn tonight.  Hopefully it will be a blowout so he and Moore can get in the game and work on learning the sets.

  • Be the posts you wish to see in the world.
This seems like a fair punishment from the team.  First warning, you get suspended and your paychecks go to charity.  Second warning will not be so pleasant. 

And yeah, expect to see at least a few minutes of Marbury tonight...I'm fine with it, Indiana isn't very good and we need to get him into the flow ASAP - this isn't just a playoff acquisition, it's a HCA chase acquisition.

Seems fair.
I bet the two game suspension is nothing compared to the "pep talk" KG has given (or will give) to Pruitt over the issue.

Yeah, I wouldn't want to be Gabe when KG calls him over.

In reality it's only about an 8 minute suspension.

  Looking at it that way, it's an awfully expensive 8 minutes.

Hopefully, he does it in private.  I don't want to see another Celtic crying on the bench.  :'(

I agree, but don't forget that his PT is liable to be cut a WHOLE lot now, especially with Marbury now in.  He will pay for that mistake for a while longer than just 2 games.

True that. And didn't somebody mention that KG had a friend or relative that was killed in a drunk driving accident? Gabe is in a world of **** right now

Malik Sealy was Garnett's best friend when they played together on the Wolves, and he was killed by a drunk driver.

...on his way home from KG's B-Day party. It's a pretty screwed up thing.

This will help with the gelling of Stephon Marbury, Gabe just helped himself lose the position that he just got about a month ago, AND he might have just lost his future for resigning with the celtics.
