Should Amare and Diaw Get Suspended?

The Suns countered by saying that Duncan and Bruce Bowen were guilty of a similar leaving-the-bench offense in Game 4's first half when San Antonio's Francisco Elson fell on the Suns' James Jones after a dunk. That play was also reviewed, but Jackson -- while conceding that Duncan "should not have been on the playing court" -- said that the league determined there was "no cause for the suspension rule" to be applied because the Elson-Jones tangle was not deemed to be an altercation.

I think the "not deemed to be an altercation" response in regards to Duncan being on the floor is crap. If "rules are rules" then Duncan/Elson should've been suspended too. I also want to know why they never did anything to Bruce Bowen. Its ok to kick guys in the achilles and in the nuts? That's a great message to send. I hope the Suns use this as fuel and win the series somehow.
