They were fighting for position, fighting for position doesnt entail throwing an elbow to somebodies throat beach.
Artest was trying to do the right thing and not bury that twink like he wanted to
LOL waterbug? did you see that waterbug in game one? LOL you are right though fisher does outweigh him but its all fat ![Lips sealed :-X](http://www.getbig.com/boards/Smileys/classic/lipsrsealed.gif)
Well at least we agree on the fighting for position part. That's in large part why I didn't think it was a dirty play. Artest was trying to push Kobe out of the lane. I don't think Kobe was trying to elbow Artest in the neck, AND . . . the league said it was an elbow to the chest.
I think there is a big difference between an elbow like Howard's, where the play was over and he was clearly trying to clock the guy in the head, and an elbow that catches someone during a fight for position.
I called him a waterbug because he is tiny and runs around like Barry Sanders.

Fish can't keep up with him.
Fisher fat? Oh come on dude. That guy drives some iron:
