Now, how is this a just decision? Yes, Peeler aimed for the head, and he should have gotten a "punishment". However, Garnett, with his "inner calm" should have let the incident go (the elbowing in the gut 20 seconds earlier) rather than instigate the blow to the head with his elbow to the chest.
Many other players do similar (if not more damaging) blows to one another and are not fined, never mind suspended.
Kings are going to come out pissed off....and you can bet BJ will do everything he can to be back in the lineup for Wednesday's game.

CTHU at KG not showing that inner calm. Remember, I'm just the messenger, LOL.
The Peeler decision doesn't seem just, but remember, the NBA is a league of stars and I have a feeling (putting on my conspiracy hat here) that David Stern didn't want to deprive the viewing audience of the new league MVP for a pivotal Game 7.
