Rondo will be suspended for at least one game for the flagrant on the prince. We all know the King and the Prince are NBA royalty, so I suspect the suspension most assuredly. Not a good look that that clown Stern was in the stands as well. I for one vote for Barbosa to start PG>

In another note, the Fakers are getting it handed to them by the Mavs IN LA so the night isn't a total waste!  ;D

It was ruled a flagrant 1, I doubt he gets suspended.

I missed what Rondo did. No idea on whether he'll get a suspension or not ... but if he does, I would go with Jason Terry.

Barbosa is strictly a pick and roll player as a PG. Bad fit as a starter (too limited as a floor general and passer/playmaker) but usable as a backup PG ... when Barbosa can be the main offensive option on the floor and the guy you want to have the ball in his hands the majority of the time. 

Jason Terry may not be anything special as a passer / decision maker but he is more well rounded than Barbosa and better suited to being the lead guard. He'll do a better job of keeping others involved. A capable setup guard.

No way he gets suspended, it wasn't that bad at all after watching the replays.

He won't be suspended, it was a fairly benign flagrant 1. Just the usual fine and flagrant points accumulated.

Wade calling it dirty was funny, he does that sort of crap at least 4 or 5 times a year.

I just don't see any scenario where that's deemed suspension worthy.  Maybe if the exact same thing happened when Wade was in the air, but he wasn't.  It was a dirty play, but there wasn't a lot of force applied.

Yeah. No way was this suspension worthy.
