It appears the Indiana Pacers will pay a heavy price for Friday's embarrassing melee.
Ron Artest has been suspended for the season, while teammates Stephen Jackson received a 30-game suspension, and Jermaine O'Neal, a 25-game suspension, ESPN.com's Marc Stein and Insider Chad Ford have learned.
"The penalties issued today deal only with one aspect of this incident -- that of player misconduct. The actions of the players involved wildly exceeded the professionalism and self control that should rarely be accepted from NBA players," commissioner David Stern said in a statement Sunday.

Well, he will have plenty of time to promote his rap CD  . He deserved this. Hopefully, he'll have time to think about his actions in the past. Maybe, some anger management classes??

Soror, Ron Ron definitely falls into the azzclown category. I hope that he does get some anger management classes. He's a talent and needs to get his mess under control.
I would have liked to see Big Ben get more than six games, because he was the instigator, according to some. But the Pacers' season is down the toilet. Wonder if Reggie Miller will finally hang it up.
