Not nearly to the extent of what players do today. Players do it to rub it in the guy's face who he just beat, that's bad sportsmanship and should not be tolerated. Remember the TO incident in Dallas?

If someone up there wanted a piece of the action, they could certainly get to it. The lower bowl in most stadiums are bigger than a lot of NBA arenas.

Artest was trash before this incident. I'm not saying the fans didn't provoke a lot of it, but Artest had the chance to walk away.
