BasketBrawl.US - The NBA Pacers/Pistons Fight

If you missed (somehow) coverage of the epic brawl between the Pacers and the Pistons, and the attendant fan riot in the stands, you can find ESPN's Sportscenter Coverage (complete with slo-mo replays and color commentary) in a RealPlayer video stream here.
  • Four players have been "indefinitely suspended" -- no word yet on the number of games. Frankly, I'd like to hear someone in authority at the NBA explain why Ron Artest shouldn't be drummed out of the league.
  • ESPN weighs in helpfully with some historical accounts of fan-player melees.
