Karl Malone was suspended and fined by the NBA for an elbow to Robinson's head near the end of the regular season. The article in the May 13 Deseret News reporting the May 12 game with San Antonio contained the following sentence:

"With 4:34 to play, Robinson hit John Stockton with an elbow that knocked the Utah guard flat and bounced his head off the floor. Stockton was momentarily dazed but stayed in the game."What is the chance of equal treatment for Robinson with his throwing an elbow? San Antonio is eliminated for this season, but I doubt they would do anything about that anyway. I suppose, though, that this applies only to a Utah team and not to others.
