For anyone who says they can't fathom fighting please explain what you would do following someone, who you thought was your boy, getting inappropriate with your fiancee who lives in your house and you told him to shut the F up and he punched you in the face.  What sort of non violent responsible response do you have planned?

I think it was the dudes ride I don't think he was driving there was probably a hang up on that so they said he was driving or nobody actually ever asked because the car was parked.
If he wasn't driving a car, I'd hit him back, especially if he was my friend.  It wouldn't be self-defense, it would be either an act of rage, or me trying to teach him a lesson (most likely the latter).

The difference is, I'm not under a professional sports contract.  Davis just isn't allowed to put himself in danger of getting hurt.  If it was self-defense, that's one thing.  This obviously wasn't.

If it was a pay-back punch, he's irresponsible and should be punished.  If it was because he couldn't hold back his anger, he should still be punished and should submit himself to anger-management.

If you're having a dispute with a long-time friend that you invite back to your house afterward, you're not in a situation where you have to punch the guy in the face in order to protect yourself.  That's blatantly obvious.

Anderson Varejao    Tiago Splitter    Matt Bonner
David West    Kenyon Martin    Brad Miller
Andre Iguodala    Josh Childress    Marquis Daniels
Dwyane Wade    Leandro Barbosa
Kirk Hinrich    Toney Douglas   + the legendary Kevin McHale

Punching your friend while he is driving and possibly drunk is really dumb. being out at 4am the morning before you fly out to Cleveland for you season opener is even dumber. Breaking your hand while punching said "friend" is beyond dumb. Not a good decision by a supposed proffessional.
