Watching in disbelief,lol. For 1 I couldnt believe Ben would get upset at that foul in the 1st place, then watch in amazement at what broke out.

That Pacer team actually might have been the best team in the NBA and 1 last chance for Reggie to get a ring, but the aftermath all but sealed the fate of the Pacers that season, as well as wreck havoc for the next several years for the Pacers, when Bird decided to clean house and get rid of actual better players by trading them for average to below average players.

It took some time but Bird did rebuild the team, that Indiana people could appreciate and root for. Unfortunately this year injuries have decimated us, but I will say the guys play hard, and in the end we might actually be better for it. I think it will probably make Coach Vogel a better coach in the long run, and help some guys who lacked confidence, as much as it sucks watching what could have been a very good season even without Lance.

I was at home at an old apartment with a girl I was messing around with briefly. I turned on Sportscenter or ESPNNews and saw it in amazement.

I was 13 and doing my homework. Just so happened to turn to this game in the fourth quarter because there was nothing better to watch.

Jamal Tinsley and that dustpan man lmao. Never forget the single greatest part of that whole mess.


Either that or the night that one guy's face died after Jermaine O'Neal got done with it. He can tell his kids he almost died that night if O'Neal doesn't slip in the middle of that swing.

Jermaines slide punch would have made for an epic meme, lol

I was watching from home in utter disbelief. The most chaotic, disturbing and overblown - in the since that the media used it to paint the league and players as "thugs" - moment in NBA history. That Pacers team was loaded to make a deep playoff run, but all that was ruined by the stupidity of Ron Artest.

Crazier thing is how that 1 thread had almost 700 posts! That's like the size of a weekly game thread on this site, and that thread was just for that 1 game/moment.

This raises a great point, think about how massive the thing was when it happened in '04. Imagine what it would be like in 2014.

We'd probably have all kinds of blogs and thinkpieces dedicated to it, one million memes would pop up, it would be crazy.

And it'd be trending on twitter for days lol. People posting screenshots of the entire incident, identifying every single member of the crowd during the stuff and all that.
