Both have been suspended for one game. The details about the incident are sketchy. Here’s what we know:
Stackhouse complained to refs all game long that Snyder was throwing elbows that were both illegal and intentional. There was a physical confrontation after the game that didn’t last long, between 10 and 40 seconds. Mark Cuban calls it a catfight, like “the Miller Lite” girls. A witness told the Salt Lake Tribune that Snyder was knocked down and was “hit pretty hard a couple of times.” He was bleeding after the incident.
Man… how bad would it suck to get beaten up by Jerry Stackhouse? I mean, unless it’s Earl Boykins or Vince Carter, it doesn’t get any more embarrassing than that. The man has spent his entire career avoiding physical contact… to have him beat your ass on a loading dock, well… that would be no fun. I’d rather get my ass whooped by Darko.
And to make things worse, Jerry Sloan may actually murder him. Snyder was benched for a game last week after he said something to the Rockets bench. Sloan was furious about it, and glued him to the bench for the next game. No telling what he’ll do now.
