As I mentioned on the game thread, Mark Williams will miss the game with the Wizards on Monday.

Two for Jose and one for Mark is what I predicted. Luckily we got the Wiz next.

Just Google it.
Here's the "fight" for those who missed it. I can understand a fine but not a suspension. Williams did swing but half of what Alvarado got doesn't sit right. If Alvarado has a 3 game suspension then it would make more sense.
Thankfully it's vs the Wiz and he should be rested for the Cavs game on Wednesday.

This is really stupid. I cannot believe the “get outta here” shove warranted a suspension. Jose grabbed his shirt and was coming at him. Mark was backing up and trying to push him away. What else could he have possibly done in that situation? He is being mocked as being weak as it is. Suspensions like this actually encourage fighting because it looks like a suspension is coming regardless, so you might as well get your licks in.

Only 2 reports I saw were facebook posts by generic basketball sites. If that had actually happened, it would be all over the ESPNs and Athletics of the world.

I agree. Sounds like a Pels fan intending to mock Williams.
LOL Mark is not weak just because he did not care much about Alvadoros. Get away, annoying fly. Mark rocks. If he was mad at that little guy, we would have seen a different reaction. Enjoy the unpaid leave, Mark.

The fact that Avocado runs straight to the locker room shows that he got what he wanted. He knew he got them both thrown out.
