Stern: No Plans to Adjust Bench Suspension Rule

7th June, 2007 - 10:06 pm

AP Wire -

David Stern knows there are people who still think the NBA's bench suspension rule is unfair and needs to be scrapped.

 

None, apparently, runs one of its franchises.

 

Stern said Thursday night there has been "no proposal" to change the rule, which gives a minimum one-game suspension to a player who leaves the bench during an altercation.

 

The rule and its application came under fire during the second round of the playoffs, when the Phoenix Suns lost two players -- and perhaps along with them their chance to be in the NBA finals instead of the Spurs -- before being ousted by San Antonio.

 

"We recently brought the subject up for discussion at our competition committee meetings," Stern said before Game 1 of the finals between the Spurs and Cleveland Cavaliers .

 

"There was no proposal to change it. Our teams are satisfied with the enforcement and generally felt that any other enforcement would have been quite questionable given the past enforcement."
