Message: [QUOTE="Orangutan, post: 3217159, member: 4946"] I think 10 games seems like a reasonable punishment. I'll give credit to the league here. The party I think deserves criticism is the Sparks. It would have been perfectly easy to take a stand and not re-sign her. Taking morals out of the equation, re-signing her and getting to play her for 24 out of 34 games helps them win basketball games. I wish that we lived in a world where credible domestic violence allegations would result in a free agent being radioactive, but we're not there yet. Howard is a different case because she is not facing charge, or at least not yet. I don't have an opinion on what the Storm or the league should do. I will say that if the screenshots of texts Howard's wife posted are legit, they display manipulative behavior that fits with my (non-expert) understanding of classic abuser behavior. [/QUOTE]
