Smooth Operator.
Parker has looked hesitant and confused at the end of the last two games. Don't know what's wrong.
Blair losing his mind, Dalembert choking on the FTs and that stupid Marion hook shot was a terrible 90 second finish. Marion needs to know his friggin place. He's a good player but jesus...stop with the wild ****. You're not the matrix anymore.
I think Dejuan will be fined but not suspended. Nene was suspended for a hard game foul.
Was Dejuan's act worse?

In other news, Miami got to play a .500 team and almost broke a sweat.
But after some of the Mavs fans were gawking after game 3, it sure is nice to have them realize it's tied up and Spurs got home court again.

Muy makes an appearance then disappears again REAL quick.
What a dumb play by Blair, dude did a great job getting his team back in the game then basically undid it all with the kick to the head.

Nene was suspended for the headbutt. If a psudeo-headbutt gets you suspended, I would have to imagine kicking a guy in the head on purpose would get you suspended.

Miami is going to steam roll through the East. Everyone in the West will beat up on each other sadly.
JET did a nut shot in '06 to Finley while on the ground and got suspended. I imagine Blair will get the same.
I would expect Blair to miss a game

Oh yeah, got my plays messed up with the elbow to James's neck. Ignore that part.
Either way, headbutt or kick? Is the latter a suspension too?
For the record I honestly believe that Blair's kick was unintentional. Dude was playing with emotion. Unfortunately for him it got the best of him.

I think it is.
The headbutt wasn't that big a deal and Nene is a much more important player than Blair. They want a tight control on the playoffs. Kick to the head is worse than that little scrap.

Doesn't compute.
If he is playing with too much emotion, he kicked intentionally, but instantly regretted it because it was dumb. Like when Bowen kicked Ray Allen.

No way man! No way

What players don't get emotional? You can't just blame it on emotion when the other 99% can keep their emotions in check.

I agree with this, but it's pretty hard to tell. Either way, it was incredibly stupid.

He did it in a fit of emotion and it looked like he realized even as he started the motion that he shouldn't, but it was still intentional. Maybe the word you're looking for is premeditated. It was not premeditated.
Personally, I don't think it was bad enough for a suspension. I don't know how the rules deal with it, but they tend to be pretty serious about blows to the head and neck. In this case, Splitter wasn't even looking at him, so it wasn't a fight or confrontation. That may make it worse.

DeJuan really let Bruce Bowen down with that weak ass face kick.
This wasn't intentional either, just emotion.
J/K, the kick is an excuse to post this.

Gotta think it's intentional....the foot moved faster when it touched his head....no idea what NBA does about fine or suspension but I don't know how you say it was unintentional
Tony Allen suspended for a kick that was more of a basketball play than Blair's

I don't think it was bad enough for suspension. Especially given the players history. But F em. I say kick his no knees a** out of the series!
On another note I just realized Boris has hit two big shots in a row, I guess the first was nullified after Vince's 3 but it's good to see him hitting some clutch shots.
Wade suspended for this kick.

Diaw was on tonight.
Matt Bonner put up a 5-Trillion.
Don't see a lot of those in the playoffs. Congrats, Coach B!

Meltdown Muy giving the Spurs some good mojo.
Spurs played better in game 3 loss than in game 4 win. Thank God the bench finally showed. Manu, Bo, and Patty outscored 5 starters handily.
This series is far from over as long as Spurs play keep away from K Leonard on the offensive end.

Six Spurs in double figures. Absolute no-shows by Marco, Coach B and young Lionel Richie.

I rooted for Blair a lot as a spur, he did a lot of good things, but he also did a lot of bonehead things. Today was the extreme of both I think.
Of course the kick wasn't a huge brawl type of boneheaded move, but it was very costly. No way around that. You don't let the refs have to make a tough choice, you probably won't like it.

Can't forget the incredible performance by Boris "The Cream Shake" Diaw. 17 points, 4 boards, 4 assists including a three with 30 seconds left to go up three.
Dear Boris,
Many thanks.
