That was because of Artest actions attacking fans.

Well gee whiz. I guess the that justifies all the bottle, chair, and ice hurling I saw and the punches I saw thrown by fans. It was all self defense.

And here I thought they were just being sore losers after their team got their asses handed to them on nationaly TV.

BTW, I have been watching basketball for more than 30 years. Have seen thousands of games. I have seen one...one... player lay on the scorers table. Some of you act like someone lying on the scorers table during the game is normal. It was a statement of I am in control and will do as I wish. It really angered the fans.

Not defending the fans but Artest was way over the top.

You are skewing the sequence of events here. Artest, and others, went into the stands before any of these were thrown.
