Nene Suspended Two Games

[Mainstreet]

Nene was suspended two games for head-butting Amundson and making contact with an official. See article from USA Today.

Nene was ejected with 7:25 left in the fourth quarter of Denver's 118-115 loss to the Phoenix Suns on Monday night, after head-butting the Suns' Louis Amundson. After the ejection, Nene made contact with a game official, Jackson said.

If Amundson didn't have some control, he could have taken Nene apart. I've watched Amundson all season and he is one player I wouldn't want to fight. Nene likes to pretend he is a tough guy,

Yeah, idk about Lou. It seems off the court he's a beach cruiser riding chill guy. Then on the court he's like this whole other thing. He's kind of crazy...

And the Nuggets happened to play the Mavs on Friday.

Yep, his suspension may actually hurt us, although the Nuggets did beat New Orleans without him tonight.

I thought they were also missing Chandler and Peja.

I think a lot of it has to do with Nene making contact with an official.
You just don't do that.

It was much more the official making contact with him. Nenê was complaining when the official made the contact ala Crawford.

BS suspension. Even higher when compared with Posey 1 game suspension for thrown the ball in the ref or Nate/CP3 incident in the same NY x NOH game.

The single ejection would be fair enought.
