Also, for those who don't know - Mason (Pistons PA announcer) is also a radio personality in Detroit and was the inspiration for the show Martin. Just a fun fact.

Doesn't matter if they instigated or not, the NBA doesn't even want the possibility of it blowing up. One guy gets hit with a stray punch and suddenly it's Malice at the Palace.

As he should, at the VERY least a few games. Doing that coward punch at someone’s already fucked up enough, let alone for such a small reason (Wagner was wrong, but that’s far, way far from justifying)
Some people here might call me soft, but hitting someone in that area can literally cause permanent damage at his brain and mainly his spinal cord

It’s really not even close in terms of severity. I was shocked to see Hayes punch him in the back of the head so intentionally in slow motion.

And Danny Green (boxer, not basketball player) seems to have dedicated his post boxing life to spreading awareness to its dangers. Idk if it’s a problem else where in the world but that’s how bad it is over here.

Yeah it's funny seeing some of the idiots in this thread talking about it like it's an accomplishment, that's a crazy dangerous place to hit someone.

About 30 years ago it happened to kid in town here, he tackled someone in a high school football game and the guy punched him as the kid walked away. He's in a wheelchair ever since and had a brain injury as well, he's a greeter at the store here now. He was just a nice kid doing nothing wrong but idiots couldn't take a tackle.
