I think Bynum's flagrant will get taken away. That foul looked bad live but when they showed the replay he was definitely going for the ball but just accidentally knocked Birdman's headband off on the way.
Everyone seems to be making a huge deal out of the trip so maybe I am wrong but I just don't see it. I think it should be a flagrant foul but I really don't see how its grounds for a suspension. It was definitely an intentional foul to stop Kobe from getting to the bucket but those happen all the time when a defender gets beat. I know its a different sport but offensive players trip blatantly trip defensive players all the time in the NFL even though its against the rules/a personal foul. If people are making a big deal out of it because Jones had a few other incidents then that would make more sense to me, I didn't see any of the 1st half/some of the 2nd.
Not a fan of Phil Jackson, he is such a little bitch in the post game press conferences all the time. I really hope he never wins another title.
