Two months ago, Bynum was called for a flagrant 2 against Michael Beasley.

Two seasons ago, Bynum committed a flagrant foul on Ben Wallace, sending him to the hospital with a broken rib. I don't know if it was a flagrant 1 or 2.

Both fouls were just like the foul on Sunday. Bynum jumps and drives his forearm/elbow into an airborne shooter. You can find all three on youTube.

Los Angeles Lakers' Andrew Bynum suspended 5 games for J.J. Barea foul, fined $25K - ESPN Los Angeles

Got it right...five games it is plus a $25,000 fine. And the NBA only fined for taking off the shirt. I would have been shocked if they added games on for it. All and all he'll lose out on $702,272.

I hope if it gets donated to charity, that he doesn't get the tax benefit.

When a player receives a technical foul, ejection, suspension (1/90th of his annual salary per game) or other fine, the money is split evenly between the league and Players Association. Each then donates its share to a charity or charities of their choosing.
