Mike Breen Quote

Uh, that's what triggered the big brawl in the stands. You saw what just triggered the entire incident. Artest, with a foul that he should've let go. He fouled Wallace from behind, but Wallace overreacted to that foul. Err—It became such a dangerous situation. There you see Stephen Jackson in there taking shot, at the stands. And granted, it's very difficult, when you're a player, and the fans come at you, either physically or verbally, but you have to restrain yourself. You just can't respond to it! There are so many bottles and cups thrown—there's Artest, after what Jim Gray reported. And he saw there was no security around at the time, and it was too late.
