Mj's weekly NBA power rankings

Ron Artest only punched one fan. I'm sick of hearing, "He went into the stands and beat the shit out of everyone!" - no he didn't. He asked the guy he thought threw it: Did you throw it? The guy said no, so Artest didn't hit him. He stuck his hand in his face. That's it. The one guy he punched RAN ONTO THE COURT AND CONFRONTED ARTEST. You can't fucking do that. It should be like football: if a fan is on the field/court, he's fair game. Hell yeah he is.

I'm going to have to watch the fight again, and see how many people he hit. I'll have to see. I was under the impression he hit a lot of people. But regardless, he was wrong for charging into the stands, regardless of whether he hit people while there or not. Plus, knocking the shit out of a fan isn't right, even if it is only one fan. It didn't look like the fan was about to hit him at all.

O'Neal decked the guy that hit Artest, therefore making him defend a teammate. His punishment should be lessened.

The dude was in the middle of nothing when O'Neal decked him. He looked more like a gangster then than he did a basketball player.
