What made the suspensions so complicated: it wasn't as simple as Knicks players suspended for 1 game. It was spread out over 2, which is highly unusual. Instead of 1 game suspension for game 6', it was staggered to game 7

Because the NBA rules require teams to have a minimum of 8 players available. Suspending all 5 for Game 6 would have left the Knicks with only 7 players available, so they had to be spread out.

last year of Ewing being an All Star calibur center...neva the same after this year and esp after that wrist injury in Milwaukee, he was neva the same. He was moving so fluid in 97. That ECF in 97 shoulda been Knicks-Bulls. The whole year I was anticipating that series. Knicks totally wasted a golden opportunity cuz they couldn't keep their composure in Gm 5.

I remember this match, like many others. Tim Hardaway was wound up like clockwork and played great. Mourning always got too fired up and picked up stupid fouls quickly. I liked how Oakley in many games explained the guys under the basket, how hard he played. It's nice to see such a hard game in the paint. Last night I watched Nuggets vs Brooklyn. I don't remember whether at the end of the second or the beginning of the third quarter the indolence of both teams was embarrassing. During several actions on both sides, not a single basket was scored. This part of the match should go to Shaqtin' a fool.

Following of the melee's outcome in g5, the league decided suspension/s incurred during the Playoffs is to be implemented to next year's regular season instead. What a shame. Both teams should have a full lineup in g7. David Stern et al seemed helped the Bulls to reach the Finals with less challenge and resistance, even though the Bulls will imminently win anyway. Or they have enough of another Bulls-Knicks faceoff league office spoiled it -- which reminded of a local sportswriter who headlined "The NBA is run by dorks" (too bad, I no longer have the article).

@@Mark_KnightThe rule was implemented prior to the 1994/95 season; it had already been around for a few years. The reason they were spread out over two games is because suspending all 5 players at once would have left the Knicks with only 7 available players for Game 6. League rules require a minimum of 8 available players.
