    While the ruling by NBA vice president of basketball operations Stu Jackson showed the league accepted Davis' argument that he believed his wife was in trouble during Wednesday's game, it also made clear that entering the stands would not be tolerated, no matter the cir stances.

    "We have made it plain to our players and our fans that players may not enter the spectator stands, no matter the provocation, and that violations of this policy will be treated with the utmost seriousness," Jackson said in a statement.

    "We have concluded, however, that Antonio's actions were the result of his belief that his family members required his immediate assistance, and have taken those mitigating cir stances into account in setting the length of the suspension."

    Just as I hoped. Well done NBA.

    I can tell you right now that Rasho's family would have a difficult time sitting in most sections of the ATT.

    They can come and sit in the Terrace Club with me!



    Charles Barkley on TNT just asked "why would Antonio's wife be jumping up and down at a Knicks/Bulls game".
    He said she should be banned for that.



    There is a thread for that Charles!

    Where are all the s that defended Antonio now when more facts and video come out.

    Skank, ass wife starting and she's the victim. Now we have foreign dudes calling Axelrod the full of alcohol guy. Axelrod said there would be NO lawsuits of any kind if all AD did was apologize to him, Davis said no and Axelrod said he's going to donate all settlements to charity to prove its not about the money. Which is totally believable because it really makes his dad the politican look good.


    Davis and all of you defending him.

    "Axelrod, 22, is the son of David Axelrod, a big-wheel Democratic consultant who has worked with Sens. Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, and Chicago Mayor Richard Daley. Davis, 37, bolted into the stands of Chicago's United Center to confront Michael Axelrod, who he claimed was intoxicated and putting his hands on his wife." New York Daily News

    "Once the ref blows his whistle, I yell out, 'That's a terrible call' and then I start booing with everybody else," Axelrod told The News. "She gets in my face and says, 'These are his kids. Shut your goddamn mouth,'" said Axelrod, recalling that she pointed toward two young children sitting directly in front of him. "She has her finger on me, on my cheek. She was digging her finger in. I thought she might start scratching me," Axelrod said. "I say, 'Get your hands off me. Don't touch me, I'm trying to watch the game.'" New York Daily News

    "He said she then started rubbing his cheek and mocking him, saying, "'I'm not touching you. It's okay baby.'" "A minute goes by. I don't know what to do. I felt like hitting her, but you can't - she's a woman," Axelrod said. When another fan told Davis to shut up and sit down, she went after him, giving Axelrod a chance to motion to security guards for help." New York Daily News

    "I turned back and Antonio Davis was standing right there," said Axelrod, a graduate of Beloit College in Wisconsin, who works for his father's firm. He insisted he was not drunk, claiming, "I never drink at basketball games. I'm a huge basketball fan. That's why I go." New York Daily News

    "A source sitting a few seats away from Kendra Davis told the Sun-Times she escalated the situation. ''I didn't hear any profanity,'' said the source, who asked for anonymity. ''I didn't see anyone touch her. There was nothing going on until she got up out of her seat. There was nothing that was disruptive to the people in the area until that point.'' Chicago Sun-Times

    "The source also said Kendra Davis reacted angrily when another fan, sitting in the row immediately behind her, told her to sit down. ''She leaned over and was pointing her finger in his face,'' the source said. ''He never got out of his seat. He did say, 'Don't put your hands in my face.' He was composed but stern. At that point, here comes A.D. walking up, and I'm thinking, 'Not smart.' Security was already there.'' Chicago Sun-Times

    "The source said the man sitting in the row behind Kendra Davis didn't appear to be intoxicated." Chicago Sun-Times

    Even if my wife was being an ass to someone else, and everything was her fault, I'd still defend her.......

    You know, I just barely saw the video, and I can't understand how everyone is saying he was calm and cool. I saw him being angry, tense and in an attack posture, definately poised and ready to fight. That situation was one wrong word, errant drop of beer, or mistaken movement away from getting ugly.

    As a citizen and state employee of Texas, if I violate State statutes that I KNOW about to "save" my wife, then I am subject to the consequences of said action. TONE needs to nut up, as well as the es on this rant, and deal with the consequences.

    We call if life...

    Have a great game, TONE...

    Hmmm, your too protective to let a skinny balding white guy get verbally abused by your wife that you have to run your ass up there and make sure you get there before security? Would you trust your wife going to a game with your kids by herself? Lemme guess, do you keep her from talking to guys and making male friends too?


    that, he was protecting his wife from getting tossed out by security.

    And yes, you are a . ing re ed: Anyone who can defend AD. See also anyone who blames Bartman on the Cubs failure.


    "mistaken movement away from getting ugly."

    Uhh, you meand like Antonio Dumbass charging into the stands? Guarandamntee you if AD was the fan and that was Axelrod charging to save his wife AD wouldn't have been as cool as Axelrod was about the situation.

    Like i said before, Soccer fans would pick on a gal like her in a heartbeat if it meant getting the opposing team star getting tossed for a few games. You WILL start to see this more and more IMO unless the penalties are equal to the actions. You think those Jazz diehards wouldn't have picked on Jordan's mistress or Mrs. Casino if it meant they could get him tossed for a couple games? Like steroids in baseball if the penalty's hard enough, no one will do it.

    Dude, its not about his wife. It is about him. Weather or not his wife was in danger doesnt matter. He thought that she was in danger, so he went up. And as a husband he did the right thing. But, Stern also did the right thing in suspending him.

    I am not saying AD shouldnt get in trouble. I am just saying that as a husband he did the right thing when he thought his wife was in danger.

    Who knows if she was being harrased or not. That is not the point. The point is, AD put his wife above his job.

    Family>Career, every time.

    This is the part I don't understand:

    Mo Taylor said AD had been watching them go at it for a while. Why didn't he alert security then if he was worried about his wife? Why wait until he perceives her getting pushed?

    Something about this doesn't seem right IMO...

    So maybe Mrs. Davis was the one causing trouble afterall ....


    Davis' wife faces battery charge for traffic incident
    Associated Press


    NAPERVILLE, Ill. -- The wife of New York Knicks forward Antonio Davis has been charged with misdemeanor battery for a traffic incident that occurred in October.

    Last month, Kendra Davis had a verbal altercation with a fan at a Knicks-Bulls game at the United Center that prompted her husband to run into the stands to check on the situation. He received a five-game suspension.

    A Minooka, Ill., woman claims that Davis ran a stop sign in October and tossed coffee at her through the driver's side window when confronted, police said.

    Davis, who lives in Naperville, told officers she threw the coffee because the woman used a racial slur, police said. The other woman has denied that to police.

    Sounds like trouble finds its way to her.

    I heard on several radio sports talk shows that this woman is a real piece of work, that she causes trouble everywhere she goes and always has. According to what they said, she seems to think she's the queen of something (besides Antonio's heart) and that she can do and say anything to anyone anytime anywhere she wants and expects to get away with it. The really sad thing, to me, besides the fact that she apparently caused her husband to get in trouble and get himself suspended...is that she is teaching her children this behavior.
