 Wow. Was the security fast! Second fan attacks bench of grizzlies and arrested two. First fan was a girl I believe. 

 They were sitting front row. What a wild scene.

That's pretty strange.  A woman who was seated in the 2nd row hopped over the first row to the floor and was immediately brought down on the court during play, and then pulled off the floor by a handful of security people.  Hard to know what her intent was as she was grabbed and tackled immediately.  As she was pulled off, someone else got into it with security from where the first woman originally was.

So was the story that she was going after one of the players?

I've heard it's in protest for Glen Taylor and his Chicken Farms?

Best bet is that there was going to be some type of protest rather than an attack.

The title of this thread is pretty funny given the circumstances. “Insane fan”. Why do we always assume someone is insane when they rush the floor. It seems like she was very sane and wanted to make a point. I’m not really advocating her position because I don’t know anything about it, I’m just chuckling at the thread title.

There was no attack on the Grizzlies. It was two women protesting. Just like the one who glued her hands to the court. You should really change the title of the thread.

Quoting Nick from the now locked Ime thread:

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

Bad, but not as bad as the Yankees fans throwing beer cans and water bottles at Guardians outfielders ... after a Yankees WIN, mind you!

Yes during a regular season game in April.  And again it was Cleveland.  But this is happening more and more frequently, which is why I didn't go into a full down meltdown over Kyrie flipping the bird in game 1.  Fan behavior is out of control (and obviously not all, or even most, fans, but some for sure).
