The NBA needs to come up with something that will help keep the players more seperated from the fans.. I know players are taunted a lot. When my boyfriend and I went to a Cubs game he & his friend were yelling things at a Florida player...but they were all joke comments like "Get a haircut- you have the money. It's ok though I'll still keep you on my fantasy team" But they weren't throwing things. Ad the guy they were yelling things at was laughing. I'm just saying if I had been Artest and someone had thrown something at me I may have had a hard time just sitting there and pretending it didn't happen...and I'm not even an angry person. I don't think that these fans should be able to sue the players involved. They were begging for it. They were taunting him to get a reaction. And they got one.

see that is where you are wrong. The players have every right to sue. The guy that got hit by Artest did not even throw the cup of beer at Artest, and he was only 19 years old. And how about the old lady that got pushed onto the court by the fight, and then got piled on like she was the QB in a football game? Now I can understand the fans that were thwoing punches at the players, they shouldn't be able to sue, and they aren't...they are getting sued. But the innocent people should have every right to sue. So you are so wrong when you say the fans have no right to sue!
