Heat’s Chris Andersen suspended for Game 6 for shoving Pacers’ Tyler Hansbrough

Posted May 31, 2013
Miami Heat forward Chris Andersen has been suspended one game without pay and has had his flagrant one from Game 5 upgraded to a flagrant two, the league announced on Friday. This isn’t a surprise. Anyone watching when Andersen first leveled Tyler Hansbrough with a forearm, and then got face to face with him before shoving him again was incredulous that he was allowed to stay in the game at the time.
