For the second time this season, a player was ejected for his involvement in an incident with the Suns' Lou Amundson. And for the second time this season, the resulting penalty is a two-game suspension.

Denver's Nene received his suspension for head-butting and then elbowing Amundson to the floor, during the fourth quarter of the Nuggets' loss to the Suns on Monday. The offense didn't seem as severe as when Zach Randolph punched Amundson in the face, but the report from the commissioner's office said that Nene made contact with an official, which could have gotten him an additional game.

You can see it for yourself in the following video clip, at about the 1:30 mark. What do you think, was two games for this too many, too few, or just right?
