Honestly, I'm not sure.
I can't lie, my "give-crap-about-the-NBA" meter took a pretty big hit after that game. Horry only got 2 games for that hit, while Amar'e and Diaw each got a game just for trying to check on Nash.
Duncan and Bowen both left the bench earlier in that very same game and absolutely nothing happened to them. NBA said they had no choice but to suspend Stoudemire and Diaw because "it's the rule"... yet they were apparently a-ok with ignoring Duncan and Bowen.
It's been like 15 years and I still get mad whenever I think about it.
