Will Jason Richardson or Stephen Jackson be suspended?
Question:Game 5 of the Dallas Mavericks vs. Golden State Warriors seemed to further expose one major problem with the GSWs. The players still don't know how to handle ghost calls, aggressive fouls, and now fans of the opponents team.
Stephen Jackson was tossed late in the game, marking the second time in this series a GSW is ejected for "taunting" an official by way of clapping in their general direction. Whether you agree with the call, or not, after the first call on Davis, Jackson should have known better. This was also the second time Stephen Jackson has been ejected in this series. Will the NBA hand him a suspension?
Jason Richardson launched into the second row, landing on a fan, alegedly stating "Push me again, (expletive), and I'll beat your ***." A shoving match between Richardson and the fan then ensued. This seems like a more likely suspendable offense.
If either of these players are suspended, how does that change the outcome of Game 6 and possibly Game 7?

I heard that they are not going to do anything to Stephen Jackson, he may be fined. I am not sure about the incident with JRich, which in my opinion is highly uncalled for. My thing is, you know what your job is, do it. Fans are going to be loud and rowdy, that is what they are supposed to do. The pro's have to know how to handle themselves. Jackson should have learned from the Baron Davis incident, but... If the the GSW misses either of those players, there will be a big problem for them to pull off a win. JRich is a pretty good shooter and they need in him in this series.For those hating on the Mavs because of the ref's calls, that is uncalled for. What about the GSW player (I can think of which one it was) that ran over Devin Harris, did you see that, with no call. The MAVS won yesterday fair and square as did GSW when they won, dam* give credit where it is due. The GSW fans are quick to point the finger at everyone except for themselves when their team loses. When and if the MAVS lose, I am sure that we will have the team to blame, not the refs.
I love this game.

The NBA will not suspend Jackson but is still investigating the Jason Richardson incident.What does the coach make you do at the first day of basketball tryouts ..?
Neither should be suspended. And how come I didn't see this J-Rich thing?And what about that punk, Terry, bodyslamming Davis? Why wasn't he ejected?
Jackson was ejected for no reason. How did he suddenly get two technicals?
The Mavs only win when the refs help them out.
Fans of the Mavs? Is that waht those sitting-on-their-hands, pastel-wearing, whining-like-babies, player-taunting cowfolk are called?
s-jax no suspension.. his coach said he would fine him personally
as for j-rich.. that fan supposedly held him so he couldn't get back up court.. then made a complaint to an nba official after the game
my opinion? nothing will happen
