Just my opinion...
The penalty was too harsh. Yes, he shoved him. But that shove could do absolutely zero damage. It was classless and unnecessary, but not worthy of the fine AND ban this postseason AND ban ALL of next season.
I think he should been fined by the NBA, banned for this postseason, banned for any Raptors or Kyle Lowry team for next year, and he should have had to make a donation to Lowry's foundation. If he didn't apologize publicly, he should also be banned for all of next year.
The penalty does nothing productive. It's all punitive. They should have found a way to turn into something positive instead of just hammering a guy who made a mistake in a very bang bang scenario.
Players punch, shove, push, kick, trip, cuss, throw tantrums during games and they aren't banned sometimes at all. An owner got caught up in the moment when a player literally jumps on his lady friend's lap full speed.
A little too harsh in my opinion.
