Ron Artest and Jim Gray.
always happens when Jim Gray is around.
If you get hit by a beer you don't have the right to go an assault someone.
It's not self defense.
If some guy comes up and punches you and then runs away...if you go after him and beat his ass...you are also guilty of assault. It's not self defense if he isn't attacking you.
Artest should have waited for security and then pressed charges...he became guilty when he went into the stands when he wasn't being threatened.

You can press charges but not assault. I guess Artests's emotion got to him with the confortation with Wallace and everything.
"Oh man, are you alright?"
"Gimme back my meds!"
Interesting how those camera dudes get right in on the action....

It's called zooming in from far away.
JB go to any boards where the majority are morons and dont' know anything is HIGHlarious. I.E Yahoo, And1, ESPN etc.
whottt demonstrates proof of the Shakespearian Monkey theorem.
Exactly right. In fact, this kind of stuff was not unheard of in the NBA in the 50s and early 60s.
If you want to go back even farther, basketball courts were actually surrounded by chain-link meshes (hence the term "cages"), which lead to some pretty nasty stuff:
LinkWhen introduced, the cage made pro basketball a rough sport as players engaged in hockey-style body checks against the wire. Frenzied fans would stick hatpins and lit cigars through the cage and into opposing player's flesh.
Who threw the chair? A player throwing it at fans? Or fans at Artest?
Whoa! Tinsley came back out of the tunnel with a dustpan ( the kind with the long handle and scoop) and was ready to chuck it at someone.
I wonder if he will get supsendned or fined. Maybe 5 game suspension. With a 25000 fine. We should have a Vbookie thread on this.
Dang man if Willie and co. Showed up with there buff selves Pacers and Pistons wouldn't stand a chance.
All I know is that one guy got some good shots in on Fred Jones...
But Jermaine O'Neal delivered the mother er of all punches. I have to give that fan credit for shaking it off as quickly as he did...because he got laid the out.
Fans weren't the only ones throwing sucker punches...
and that was after he got popped by Artest. That shot by JO had ta hurt!
NBA players have never been known for being good fighters. Remember Darryl Dawkins vs. Maurice Lucas?
O'Neal's punch was somewhat embarrassing, given that he nearly tore his ACL falling down while he was delivering it.
somewhere, GW is proud.![]()
I think the guy in the brown suit that punched the fans might be Anthony Johnson after all...he has hair on the sides of his head as does the guy in the brown suit teeing off on that one fan...Person doesn't.
I don't at all understand anyone saying "I would have react that way" in regards to Artest. (I'm not just talking to you, Marie, like 20 people have said it)
Lol Kori i know you werent just talking about me. But seriously i think in that situation everyone has lost their cool. I am in no way a fan of Ron Artest. I am dissapointed and get more and more upset the more i see that tape.
I do agree Ron Artest does have issues. But I dont know, i can see why he reacted the way he did. It is sad that innocent fans got in the way. He did overreact but i think many others would have as well. It's not just this happened only because its Ron Artest.
The entire situation on the whole is just horrible and sad. That old lady and the two little boys faces say it all. This is a total travesty. I know people are celebrating and laughing over this but its not joking matter. I cant believe how some supposed fans are handling this situation.
How are people in San Antonio reacting over this? We got people out here talking about the NBA should have more of this excitement. WTF?!?!?!
If that were true, talk about your poetic justice.
