O'Neal was suspended for three games without pay and fined $15,000 on top of it. fine-fe- st Miller was fined $7,500 and suspended for one game. Oakley was also suspended for two games and fined $10,000. Oakley's latest incident gave him six flagrant-fou- l points one over the limit which carries an extra game suspension, which is why he was suspended for two games. The NBA came down harder on O'Neal because he instigated the fight, although he was fouled flagrantly. A writer for the L.A. Times argues for stiffer penalties when someone fouls O'Neal. Even the NBA referees admitted to the L.A. Times that it is very difficult to officiate Shaq. "We really can't get into the judgment of it all," said Dan Crawford, the lead official of crew. Saturday night's three-ma- n "Very difficult man to referee, though. I can tell you that." Shaq should take it as a compliment that every time he gets the ball, he gets fouled. It shows that anyone who guards can't stop him from scoring. No one else in the league, even Michael Jordan, can say that. Perhaps that is due to the fact that Jordan shoots better than 50 percent from the foul line, but even still, it is a compliment. Should there be special rules regarding Shaquille O'Neal? Every player should be treated equally. There is no question about that. But Shaq's situation might get the wheels turning. An intentional foul rule could be used like in high school and the NCAA. That might remedy the situation. But the best remedy lies within Shaq. Shoot 80 percent from the foul line, and they're not going to foul you as often. Look at Karl Mal-on- e he went from a 50 percent free throw shooter his first year in the league, to a near 80 percent free throw shooter. Defenders have stopped fouling him and tried to play him straight up. O'Neal's fight was an for the league and players. But is also served me with a good, old laugh.
