You do not know the rules then…the rule states,
“Violent acts of any nature on the court will not be tolerated. Players involved in altercations will be ejected, fined and/or suspended.
Officials have been instructed to eject a player who throws a punch, whether or not it connects, or an elbow which makes contact above shoulder level. If elbow contact is shoulder level or below, it shall be left to the discretion of the official as to whether the player is ejected. Even if a punch or an elbow goes undetected by the officials during the game, but is detected during a review of a videotape, that player will be penalized.”

Maybe learn yourself some NBA rules pl0x?
Please man…anyone can google NBA rules. If you look at the play closely, Rondo threw the elbow up in defense b/c Hinrich started to charge at him. Case closed. This incident happened in the first round. No more discussion over this. OKAY?! rofl
