| Garnett suspended for Game 2 | 04.18.10 at 7:50 pm ET |
The NBA has suspended Kevin Garnett for Game 2 of the Celtics playoff series with Miami Tuesday night at TD Garden.
Garnett was involved in an altercation with Miami’s Quentin Richardson near the Heat bench with 40 seconds remaining in Game 1 when he threw an elbow at Richardson’s jaw. Garnett received two technical fouls and was ejected. Richardson was also fined $25,000 by the league.
After the game, Richardson sounded off on Garnett and Paul Pierce, saying, “I don’t like them and they know it.” Richardson and Pierce have a history of bad blood.
On Sunday, Garnett called Richardson’s comments, “classless,” and said he had no regrets for how he handled the incident.

Richardson should not have even been in the area. He didn’t come over to see if Pierce was ok. He was there to start trouble. He’s a punk. Pierce school’s him every time they play and Richardson can’t do anything about it except start a incident that get’s KG a game off. KG should have kept his cool though. It really looked like the elbow was an accident. He was being pushed by the Heat players and threw his arms back to keep his balance. The entire thing was started by Richardson and his punk ass get’s a chump change fine. Nice going NBA. Maybe if the officials looked at it for another 10 minutes they would have got it right. It’s ajoke but I ain’t laughin’.
