Antonio and Ron aren't the same.


It's a known fact in sports arena people have drinks. It's also known that for some...they find courage after a few sips. Their heckling game gets better when they want to harass the opposing team. All athletes are aware of this, call me what you will. Than every so often that line gets crossed, we remember what happened last year when a heckler in the stands was running his mouth like he was beyond getting touched. I'm sure he has images of Ron Artest lunging towards him every now and again. Overall that was a melee I feel was more of letting your pride have it's way with you...and only you.
In this case dealing with the Knicks power forward and ironically enough Player's Association president Antonio Davis. He saw a heckler violating his wife's personal space. He made his way into the stands to make sure everything was kosher. The NBA is "investigating" to determine what they'll do next. Antonio was ejected from the rest of the game. Me personally...yeah, i'd do the same. If i'm the visiting team and the hostile home crowd starts to approach my family...bless your heart.
