Bell Suspended for Game 6

Raja Bell of the Phoenix Suns has been suspended for game 6 of the Suns-Lakers series for clotheslining Kobe Bryant during game 5.

He feels that the suspension is unfair because of the physical contact and punishment he received during game 5 and during the series.

He and Kobe go back and don't like eachother one bit.

Bell said about Kobe "I have no respect for him. He is a pompous, arrogant individual."

It is going to be difficult for the Suns to win without Bell, their best defender and one of their best 3 point shooters, especially considering their short bench.
