one fan that threw the beer, he was a moron yea... the reason the other people started throwing **** was because of how pacers came out throwing punches at whoever they saw. if artest could've kept his cool none of that would've happened, I'm not saying the fan was right to throw the beer. On the other hand artest shouldnt have fouled wallace so hard when they're up by 15 and 40 seconds to go

the pistons are the bad boys, but the pacers are the ones who are known for being little punks. i already hated artest, but that foul with 45 seconds to go was completely unnecessary. if artest was a better man, he woulda just let him make the shot, and this whole thing would've never happened.

after watching the it on sportscenter, both fans and players should be blamed for this. fans for throwing drinks, food, chairs, and other stuf. players for going into the stands.

this does change the old saying, "I went to a fight and a basketball game broke out"

i dunno, in my opinion, the players should never go into the stands, never, no matter what, so i feel more blame should be placed on the players. i'm not condoning what the fans did, but honestly, fans throw stuff in lots of games. it's gonna be interesting to see the fallout. who's ready for christmas day? :p

I just watched this on Sportscenter. I think that they fans should be held responsible. Just because fans through stuff at all these games is irrelevant. It isn't allowed at the stadiums but they don't enforce so fans get away with. I don't think that the players should have to put up with getting drenched with beer everytime they go through the tunnel. I would be ****ed as well. I don't think what they did was right either but I think it falls on the fans to not act like @$$holes.

I see, them large windows that they use in hockey, to keep the puck out of the stands, may be used in the nba. At least in Detroit it should be. Hopefully them fans didn't ruin it for others. I'm concerned that "NO FANS ALOUD" within 3-5 rows by the players.

I agree. I think Artest will get 15+ games and for the two idiots that ran onto the court and got pummeled by Artest and O'neill, they got what they deserved.

I disagree. The foul wasn't even a "hard foul" by Artest. Besides, even if it was, that's no reason for Wallace to react like that (but I probably would have called him some really obscene stuff if I was Wallace) Wallace threw his armband at Artest after he was just chillin on the scorers table. Artest didn't do anything. Who's escalating the situation?

The fan took a chance at throwin that cup of beer at Artest. He didn't think Artest would have the balls to go up into the stands. He probably did it to feel cool infront of his friends. He then sucker punched Artest TWICE in the back of the head. That moron and all these others need to be banned from the Pistons games and all other sports events at the Auburn Hills Arena for LIFE.

All the fans who got their ass beat got what they deserved. ESPECIALLY that dude that got knocked the fudge out by O'Neal on the court floor. What the heck was he doing on the court floor? All him and his buddy were doin' is asking for trouble. Too bad he got a sore FACE instead. He deserved it.

And btw why don't stadiums put some kind of nice tarp with the team logo on the entrance/exit the players go through? It protects everyone from getting drenched with coke bottles, popcorn and all the crap they threw down at them

do you know what it is like down on the court while they're playing? i've seen a lakers game before.. wow those guys talk so much **** i've never heard before.. and no that foul was highly unnecessary and i'm sure that ugly ass artest mouthed off to Wallace, and Wallace should have never pushed/shoved him.

he should have knoced his ass to the ground.

Yeah the fans acted like retards, but a professional sports player has NO BUSINESS going up into the stands to start beating people. Artest is a ****ing idiot and I hope he gets suspended till he learns some respect and not to be a punk ass ******.

As I was just watching on ESPN, the police officer summed it up best.

"... If something is thrown, whether it be a cup, bottle, or a chair, a person has the right to retailiate to that."

I just can't believe the fans, even when the Pacers were heading to the locker room. :no:

    • Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Telltale Games, the studio known for its episodic games from the 2000s, had a surprise appearance at the Summer Game Fest showcase today. The studio has gone through a collapse, an acquisition, and a revival but has largely gone silent in recent years. Today's sudden announcement was for the popular The Wolf Among Us series, with news about the sequel and a remaster dropping. Set after the events of the 2013-released title, the sequel will bring back Biby Wolf for a new adventure in Fabletown. This town of fairy tale characters is becoming unstable, with Snow White not being able to keep order as before. "When a brutal series of crimes threatens to fracture the fragile balance holding Fabletown together, Bigby Wolf, sheriff of Fabletown, finds himself drawn into a dangerous conspiracy that reaches deep into the city’s criminal underworld," says the studio. "As suspicion spreads across the city and powerful forces work against him, Bigby must uncover the truth and decide what kind of sheriff - and what kind of wolf - he is willing to become." At the same time, Telltale also announced The Wolf Among Us Remastered, bringing back the classic with a fresh coat of paint. This will include all five episodes from the original game plus over an hour of extra content that will offer behind-the-scenes videos, cast interviews, image galleries, and deleted scenes. The remaster will also have updated visuals and improved UI elements and accessibility features, alongside upgrades to the animations, audio, and frame rates. Telltale has been working on this project for almost a decade now, but if the new release schedule holds, fans will be able to jump into The Wolf Among Us 2 sometime in 2027. As for The Wolf Among Us Remastered, this is slated to release during this holiday season.

    • Alien Isolation 2 will bring a new protagonist and setting, watch the reveal trailer here by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Only a few weeks ago, Sega and Creative Assembly dropped a teaser for a new Alien Isolation. Today at Summer Game Fest, Alien: Isolation 2 was officially announced with a new trailer while also confirming a whole lot of information about the setting of this survival horror project. Check out the reveal trailer above. Leaving behind the Sevastopol space station, the sequel will take players to a remote colony world. With a Xenomorph (or more) on the loose, players will be navigating both the surface of the weather-ravaged planet as well as "the claustrophobic confines of the Weyland-Yutani outpost of Kurosaki Station." Interestingly, Creative Assembly is leaving behind Amanda Ripley, the daughter of Alien's Ellen Ripley, as the protagonist too. While it hasn't confirmed a name yet, players will be taking the role of a new character for this new adventure. The setting is also being described as a new hunting ground for the Alien. This will have players improvising and developing new tools to aid in their survival and escape, all to avoid "cinema’s deadliest killer." "It has been over a decade since we created the original Alien: Isolation and I am so excited to show everyone the first glimpse of the sequel," says Al Hope, Creative Director at Creative Assembly. "Our dedicated Survival team at Creative Assembly has been working hard to create a new, evolved Isolation experience continuing the legacy of the Alien franchise, making the eponymous killer smarter, the environment harsher and the chance of survival slimmer." Promising the same deadly tension from the original from over a decade ago, Alien: Isolation 2 is in development for PC, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PlayStation 5. A release date has not been announced yet.
