It’s time for something to be done about Mario Chalmers (videos)

Can someone please tell Mario Chalmers that he plays in the NBA and that he is not a member of the WWE.

Throwing flying elbows to the necks of some of the best players in the Basketball is just not acceptable and it needs to stop.

How the league has handled these situations just makes it worse.  What he did on Friday night to Dirk Nowitzki deserved far more than a one game suspension, especially since it was a second offense.

The worst part of these situations is how Chalmers acts after he delivers his patented forearm shiver.   He throws his arms up in disgust and acts like He didn’t nothing wrong.

It’s one thing, if something like this happens just once but since Chalmers has already done it twice 10 games it is clear that he has bad intentions.

The first occurrence happened while the Miami was playing The Clippers and he connected with Blake Griffins throat.

Since the league has done little to correct this injustice, LeBron James and Dwyane Wade need to be the ones who make sure it never happens again.  They are supposed to be the team leaders.  If they don’t handle it in-house they will be the ones that teams focus their retaliations on.  If you have a guy taking malicious shots at other team’s stars, then you can only expect other teams to do the same thing to you.  Especially if Chalmers continues to do his best impersonation of Tito Santana with his flying forearm.
