.  Yeah, that one guy shouldn't have thrown the beer, but did they really expect the fans to sit there and not protect themselves when trained professional athletes are running into the stands and hitting random dudes? Jackson and O'Neal were just attacking dudes totally unprovoked.  JO hit that dude with the sliding dragon punch and almost took the poor kids head off and it didn't even look like he did anything.

Like I'm gonna see little ol' Jamal Tinsley try to come at me with a dustpan and not throw my popcorn on him... come on now

Edit: I'll admit it was a poor showing by the fans, but those commentators made it sound like the dudes from the Pacers were not at fault at all

If you're gonna instigate a fight, you better be ready to get hit. I don't care what it is, they shouldn't be throwing anything at all. The Pacers should've reacted differently, but bottom line: if there's an action, there's gonna be a reaction.

I remember watching this live too and my reaction being

 

[filly413]

I thought tupac was gonna give Ron the duffle bag and tell him to handle his

 

[blondsoccerplyr]

The end of the Indiana Pacers.

[rawse]

So... where was the security when all this went down?

 

[mrgrapes85]

[alchemist iq]

I was on the couch watching that game, so epic. "Its still cold in the D"

[brandon3000]

Jermaine's Sliding Dragon....

this was funny and all but theres a clip of these kids that got seperated from their parents/guardian that were crying and thats when I realized the gravity of the situation...








Conclussion: Detroit gets it POPPIN!!!!

 

[thehype]

The Pacers pulled mad cards that day. Fans thinkin' they were safe in stands FOH.

I remember watchin this live too. My dad was so disappointed

"Too many bloodcleet tugs inna di league now" /HisJamaicanAccent

 

[fedexciter]

i dont know what world some of u live in, but where im from if youre man enough to throw beer in someones face youre man enough to get your %$# kicked

 

[mister negative]

I forgot to mention son said them dudes on the court didnt do anything... except the fact that they were ON THE DAMN COURT!

They deserved to get stomped out...

You wanna play with the big boys then you gotta be ready to catch haymakers...

Silly homers...

all that testosterone

 

[spsfinest212]

These fans are dumb as hell though they needed to get smacked. How are you going to throw beer on a headbusta like Ron Artest and you weigh 115lbs.?

It wasn't him it was the dude next to him with the hat...

 

[Betonblck]

What was my man with the Detroit jersey thinking that walked up to Ron Artest talking trash?

I'm thinking, is he serious, this outta shape small dude is gonna challenge Artest? A dude that runs and lifts weights for a living.

Other than boxers, pro basketball players are the last dudes I wanna challenge to a fight.  You see how hard LeBron dunked on James Johnson the other day.  Imagine your head being the rim.

someone needs to make a falcon punch Gif out of this.

 

[757bred]

This joint was epic.  I was pissed that Artest was suspended the entire season.  I understand the logic though, Stern had to send a message.  
What ever happened to dude that threw the beer?  I can't remember if he got jailtime or not.
