The Electrifyer

Sure. It's called self-defense and assault. A cup of beer is not going to kill you. Artest was.

Just because it is something you also would do in the situation would not make it right. Just because a guy threw a drink at Artest and he has a huge temper, he is allowed to just pummel away at the guy without punishment?

Man, when you guys were watching this live, could you even believe what happened? I remember seeing the shoving incident first and I was pretty interested in the game, finally. Then a sock or something was thrown at Artest and I was like "hmmm... thats never happened before". But when Artest went into the stands and the whole thing just escalated bigger and bigger, I was in an unbelievable shock at what was happening. I could barely believe myself watching all this. Especially when Artest wnet back to the bench and I thought it was over, he still nails a couple fans in the jaw. The whole thing was surreal and I guess shocked is my main reaction to all of this right now. No wait... entertained is another main reaction too.

I think so. Christmas Day, if Detroit is winning like Indiana was last night, they will be having all sorts of stuff thrown at them.

I love the quote on this site about Jim Grey: http://www.insidehoops.com/nba_rumors.shtml "ESPN's Jim Grey spoke at midnight, ET on ESPN about the incident. His voice was quivering. He sounded extremely shaken up."

Wart: Those pics are priceless.

He should have yelled "DEEEEEEETROIT BAAAAAAASKETBAAAAALL" and seen if anyone responded.

Isn't there also a rule in the NBA where you cannot go past half court during an NBA fight? Shouldn't that mean both rosters have all their players suspended?!

The funniest part about that was that the fan just got up and immediately got hit.

This torrent website usually has full NBA games available for download: http://bt.davkanet.com/ I'm sure they will be uploading this game in a few days.

Well, I don't think the Piston CEO would blame any Piston for it. They also showed another angle of the guy who hit Artest with the beer. Right when Artest got near him enough to attack him, you could see the guy's face change from laughing to saying "HO-LY SHIT!" and instantly frightened for his life. That was hilarious to watch.

BTW... there was also this Mav's game on TV that I am currently watching the highlights of. Now my question is wtf are those jerseys they are wearing? Are they retro are just retarded?

People on the Detroit news, like Bill Laimbeer and George Baha are saying season long suspensions for Artest because the NBA will consider his past history as well. If that does happen, I guess Artest will have all the time in the world to promote his CD now.

I was talking about the guy who tryed to constrain Artest from behind from hitting the guy in the black shirt. He was wearing a hat too and started hitting Artest from behind until Palace staff pulled him off and Jackson came over to pound on him.

When that guy was being restrained, Stephen Jackson came from behind and gave him some CRAZY hits. BTW... the next game between the two will be Christmas day in Indiana.

Jermaine O'Neal will be punished. There was one scene they just showed where O'Neal came right by the bench after the fan in the white Piston's jersey who was jawing at Artest and punched him square in the jaw. He landed probably the best hit by any of those players. The guy got knocked down HARD and laid down for a while.

Anyway you can get it on your computer? Nope, sorry, I don't have that capability. I'm sure something as big as this will be posted on the internet though.

Doesn't get into trouble? The guy went right after 3 or 4 fans. No matter what was thrown or said to him, he will be getting in trouble for that. Same go for "Action" Jackson.

I am glad I taped the whole thing. Who were those last two idiot fans who went after Artest? Did they really think they're fat bellies could take on Artest?

Half of the Indiana roster is now going to be suspended. They're next opponents will be very lucky.

And Artest now really has earned the #91.

Indy vs. Detroit = NEW RIVALRY IN NBA!

Anybody see Lebron James' dunk late in the second quarter vs. the Bobcats? That boy almost jumped out of my TV.

Ray Allen is sick.

I blame it on you mocking Bill Walton. He has unleashed a a severe stomach ache and is "throwing it down" on you in an effort to teach you a lesson.
