Don't touch the players. How hard is it to comprehend that fact, don't touch the players. It's pretty lame that our 'fan' got all this outrage and a lifetime ban and yet this rich owner gets a one year ban.

Also this stuff happens all the time. Hell Shaq of all people would dive into stands to save a ball, its part of the game. Its the ****ing finals for crying out loud!

Premeditated racism? Is that like “Pre Crime?”

If one is concerned over safety, there’s a solution for it already; don’t buy court side seats. Perhaps the nba should get rid of them?

The reason why this isn’t talked about in the same way as the Jazz incident is:

1. This was a quick altercation between a player and fan triggered not by race but by his diving into the crowd over a loose ball. Different from the Utah incident, which resembled a slow burning candle where fans wouldn’t stop harassing players and it was reasonably proven to have been racially motivated.
2. Golden State’s crowd doesn’t have a reputation and history for saying racist things. Ours does. Getting overly defensive about it suggests guilt or admission of having observed overt racism at games (imo). Furthermore, our fans do need to tone it down. How many more years are we going to boo former players for touching the ball? Must we boo every call that goes against us despite being the correct calls? I’m all about creating a fun atmosphere but our crowd does embarrass itself by antagonizing visiting teams with our napoleonic complex.

Trying to conflate these two incidents and insinuating there’s a double standard is really grasping at straws here. There are plenty of incidents of hypocrisy to point at, but this case isn’t one of them.

Golden state has now suspended the fan for one year, slapped him with a $500,000 dollar fine, and is apologizing publicly. Maybe we should ask our fan if he’d rather be slapped with a $500,000 dollar fine instead?

I think the fan in GS was part owner of the warriors which would mean he is rich as **** which explains the 500,000

Mark Stevens isn’t a bad guy, just made a stupid mistake. He apologized publicly and privately for his actions. Accepted his penalty without complaint. No racist undertones for any of this.

Shane Kiesel was an ***. He acted like an *** and then failed to own up to it. I’m still not sure that it was racist, but it was certainly offensive and over the line. Maybe it was racist. I thought it seemed more homophobic tbh. I still think part of the severity of the situation was due to Westbrook’s visceral reaction. With that said, I still think the lifetime ban was justified.

My only question is why can Drake pull similar ******** without any penalty? His antics certainly cross lines as well. I think it’s hilarious for any Raptors player or fan to call foul when they won’t say **** about Drake.

I agree that was more reckless than you will usually ever see. But he still had a shot at saving the ball and he is playing in a finals game so I'm fine with what he did.
Also don't think the little shove that did absolutely no harm (and wasn't intended to do harm imo) was a big deal.

I’d love for the Raptors to figuratively smack Drake. He’s way out of line. Again, the game isn’t about him. Yet he makes every home raptors game about himself. He acts like a complete fool out there touching players and coaches. I thought he should’ve been suspended after he touched the coach a few games ago.

As I’ve stated throughout this thread, the NBA needs to seriously crack down on bad fan behavior. It’s just out of control. A ticket doesn’t license you to touch players, coaches, and say whatever **** you want. I honestly think it’s a detriment to the league.
