Not sure why that late timeout bothered Howard so much and he was out of line for taking it that far, but knowing Wisconsin I wouldn't be surprised if there was other stuff in play too.  Chippy games, dirty play, and general d-bagery seems to follow them like a shadow yet they have a way of coming out looking good or getting away with it.  

Idk, Howard got butthurt because Wisconsin called a timeout when Howard had his guys pressing down 15 with under a minute left. This stuff follows Wisconsin for sure, but this one is 100% on Juwan Howard for being a raging d-bag imo. Hope he pays dearly for it.

These can both be correct.  In my mind anyway

In all seriousness, does he get fired? 

I really can’t see him getting fired. Should he? Debatable with fair points on both sides. Could he for cause? Absolutely. I just can’t see them going all the way, but I could definitely see him getting shut down for the rest of the year.

He's certainly not a first time offender when it comes to post-game incidents and it should carry a significant penalty.

I don't think he gets fired either although it  would be interesting to see what would happen if he wasn't a Michigan alum.

“Juwan Howard has not apologized for anything that happened,” tweeted Michael Cohen of the Detroit Free Press. “Said he was upset about Wisconsin calling a timeout late in the game. He expressed that frustration to Greg Gard. Howard said Gard touched him during the postgame line and he felt the need to defend himself.”

I mean Greg Gard is like Andre the Giant and poor Juwan a clone of Pee Wee Herman.  I can't stop laughing!

Didn’t he say something like that last time when he went after Turgeon?

that’s a funny answer from him because He is like twice the size of Gard, but also because he didn’t hit Gard and also because he threw the punch way after he was separated from Gard.

There isn't justification for what Howard did. At the same time, there is no reason for Gard to have been pushing Howard's arm. It's odd that these things follow certain teams. You could follow this up the chain. Coaches should control their players, the Big 1.o should control their coaches and the level of physicality allow in games. While this wasn't directly related to physicality, I'm a little impressed most players have kept their composure in most games this season.
