The NBA suspended Boston Celtics guard Ray Allen this afternoon for elbowing Anderson Varejao in the groin Sunday in the Cavs' 107-76 win. He will not play tonight when the Celtics take on the 76ers in Philadelphia. The suspension will cost Allen $158,000.

The incident took place with 5:05 left in the third quarter after a free throw. The players locked arms and Varejao appeared to toss Allen to the ground as Varejao tried to get free. Allen responded by throwing the elbow. Both players received technical fouls at the time.

"It was a dirty play. He threw me to the ground," Allen said Sunday. "I'm not going to lie, I'll always stand up for myself and anyone on this team."

Varejao felt the same way.

"He doesn't like Brazilians or maybe he doesn't like my hair," Varejao said. "You don't hit a man in his [groin]."

Varejao received the standard $1,000 fine for the technical foul.

Lakers fans doing it subconsciously now.

No, Varejao shouldn't have been suspended, they got tied up, Ray Ray overreacted, no other punishment necessary. Dude got the technical, enough punishment($1000.00).

50% of the time, it's always the second guy that gets in trouble, every time.

But yeah, I don't see any reason why Varejao should be suspended or anything.

Ray knows better, but I know it's got to be frustrating when a bum like Varejo just keeps at it. I wish something similar (not to the groin though) wouldhave happened to Sasha maybe last year in the Finals

andys that guy you love to have on your team but hate to play against.

He always does stuff like that. It seems like every time I watch a Cavs game I see him get tangled up with someone and then throw his hands up like it wascompletely accidental. He likes to instigate and then act like he didn't do anything. I don't think he should get suspended but one of these timessomeone's gonna deck him.
