Good thing he just hit a guy instead of deflating the basketball. That would have been double.

Agreed - wonder if the league will step in and add any discipline.

I mean, it's not like knocking a guy out in the middle of the street does anything to the integrity of the game, right? 2.5% of the season seems appropriate.

That hit could have killed that dude but smoke a lil weed and it's a problem.

Especially if his head hit the pavement cause it looked like he got knocked out.

apparently Okafor has asked the Sixers for a bodyguard, which the team will provide.

Does the bodyguard protect the heckler b/c each video shows Okafor going after the people?

Okafor should provide his own bodyguard.  The guy decides to get a fake id and go drinking and knocking people out and the Sixers are supposed to provide a guy to monitor that? 
Of course the Sixers would want to, but it seems backwards to me.

It's not like they're really paying any players, they might just put the guy on a vet min contract

He doesn't want to spend that money he got.

Lets not kid ourselves here guys, this suspension isn't about the fighting nor the drinking. Its actually the punishment that the Front Office deals out when they win games.
