Artest speaks out: It just ain't fair!
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
INDIANAPOLIS — Indiana Pacers forward Ron Artest said Tuesday he wishes he hadn’t gotten into a fight with fans but feels his season-ending suspension was too harsh.
“I don’t think it was fair — that many games,” Artest said in an interview with NBC’s “Today” show. “I respect (NBA Commissioner) David Stern’s decisions, but I don’t think I should have been out for the whole season.”
It was Artest’s first national interview since he was suspended for charging into the stands and fighting with fans late in Friday night’s game against the Detroit Pistons in Auburn Hills, a Detroit suburb. The suspension amounts to 72 games in an 82-game season, and means he will lose about $5 million.
