Do we get to count it twice if we get pulled over for speeding on our way to a game?
What's this "we" stuff?

I can't see them giving him 10 games for being lazy. Realisitically there is a chance the level of contact is flagrant 1 (or in a different situation a hard foul) if he had bothered to leave his feet and swing his arm at the ball/arms of the shooter. It also looks bad because of the situation and size disparity.

My best guess is 3-5 games and some cash for being lazy and stupid.

If you're talking about Bynum's foul, they already handed him a five game suspension and a $25,000 for taking off the jersey...in fact I posted the article just a few posts before yours.

I don't think I'd characterize the foul as being lazy. That's too generous. Lazy defense leads to different contact, he led with his elbow into the shooter's chest.

Maybe he was embarrassed about being schooled.
