OT: Joel Przybilla gets one-game ban

[Haakzilla]

...good ole Joel!

NEW YORK -- Milwaukee Bucks center Joel Przybilla has been suspended one game without pay for throwing a basketball that hit a referee during a game against the Los Angeles Clippers.

Stu Jackson, the NBA's executive vice president for basketball operations, announced the suspension Sunday.

The incident occurred with 1:36 remaining in the fourth quarter of Milwaukee's 111-85 loss to the Clippers on Saturday night.

The 7-foot-1 center will serve his suspension Tuesday when the Bucks host the Indiana Pacers.

I'm kind of glad Leonard isn't learning from Joel... the last thing Leonard needs is to act like a great dane puppy with distemper.

Przybilla is the best role model that Leonard and his smart aleck smile could ever possibly have.

Look, just because he's a 12-year-old doesn't mean you can call him a smart aleck.

It's not because he is 12. It's because he looks 7.

LOL! Indeed!!

Yeah, that was one dangerous mean throw there. That poor ref might get half a bruise from the way it gently brushed his calf.

I still can't believe Joel is getting under $1 million salary. I thought veterans get around $1.3 million + as minimum. I checked espn and hes getting under $1 million. Can that be possible?

 

[jlprk]

If you're going to get suspended, you should at least hit him in the face.

Joel never was known as a shooter.
