What does that have to do with anything?

...went INTO THE STANDS after the WRONG guy, punched numerous people in the face, including a towel boy, and you don't think he should be suspended? Remember, the pacers ran into the crowd first, not the pistons. Stephen Jackson and Ron Artest should be fined and suspsended just like Big Ben (who overreacted, hardcore).

Artest went after someone who THREW A FULL CUP at his FACE. I consider that self-defense.

As far as forfeiting games, please. Larry Brown, two weeks off hip surgery, was running around trying to make announcements for people to stop, Rasheed of all people was trying to break it up, and even Ben was trying to stop it after Artest the crazy ran into the stands. They have no control over the thousands that were there to see the game.

Well, good for them. The forfeiting is about the fans. Show that the TEAM gets hurt by YOUR actions, and maybe there won't be any more events like this.
