It isn’t the politically correct thing to say, but I wish the players could confront the fans man to man and whatever happened during the confrontation people would look the other way.
Fans are getting out of pocket and in some instances need their asses beat.
With his recent outburst at hecklers in Utah, Russell Westbrook ignited a long-overdue discussion of how fans interact with players during games. The Jazz even recently banned a fan who repeatedly called Westbrook “boy” last year.
Unfortunately, that wasn’t an isolated case of that racist language being used toward a player.
Pistons Blake Griffin confronted a fan in Minnesota in December.
You can watch the video of how close Blake was to breaking the guy’s jaw for calling him boy.
