I'm not sure how David West can even try to justify what he was thinking when he hit Mike Miller in Sunday's game -- plain and simple, that's assault, not a hard foul. The NBA apparently agrees, announcing this afternoon that West will be suspended for tonight's game contest in Memphis. With Chris Paul and Tyson Chandler already sidelined due to injury, it shouldn't be considered an upset if O.J. Mayo and the rest of the Griz defend their home court.
Alright Mr. Stu Jackson and Mr. David Stern let's see what you are made of. Let's see what the NBA does with something that in the street would get you arrested for assault. 1 Game suspension? time to review

assault is an appropriate word for what I just saw. That deserves a fine, and at least 2 games susp.

It looks like he conked him on the head with a billy-club
that needs more than a 1 game suspension
