Should Wade be suspended for this elbow in game 2?

Wade can add another hit to his list. I highly doubt he's suspended for this elbow to the head of Stephenson. David West had a questionable play as well, but his was off of a pick,compared to Wade flying at some guys head. Dirty players, compared to being tough. If Wade is suspended then the league will earn some respect. Otherwise the league that I love will be even more ridiculous.
NBA vice president Stu Jackson is reviewing several plays for possible discipline from Friday's Game 2 of the Eastern Conference finals.
Specifically, the league is believed to be reviewing an elbow Miami Heat star Dwyane Wade gave to Indiana Pacers guard Lance Stephenson in the second half of the Pacers' 97-93 win.
Wade collided with Stephenson running back on defense after turning over the ball. Stephenson crashed to the court on the play, though it was unclear whether the hit was intentional.
Several other plays are under review, including a blow the Pacers' David West gave to Mario Chalmers in the third quarter.
Neither play was called a foul during the game by officials.
It is possible the league could assess a flagrant foul, a fine or a suspension, or do nothing.
After Game 1, the league issued a retroactive flagrant foul to the Pacers' Ian Mahmini.
Earlier this season, Jackson suspended Wade retroactively for a hit on Charlotte Bobcats guard Ramon Sessions. There was no foul initially called on that play.
