The NBA came down hard on the juvenile behavior displayed at the Detroit Pistons/Indiana Pacers game, suspending nine players without pay.
The combined pay that will be forfeit will be over $10 million. I hope the teams donate this money to charity.
The “children” who were most directly responsible for this behavior will sit out a combined 143 games.
It’s not enough.
Now there should be civil and criminal prosecutions of both players and fans. The Auburn Hills police department has copies of the brawl that the networks filmed and are working on building cases. The sooner the better!
That had better be the last melee like this in the NBA.
