Did Ron Artest Punch The Wrong Guy During Malice At The Palace?

RON ARTEST IS AWESOME BECAUSE HE HAD RESPECT FOR THE WAY BEN MOVED HIM AFTER HE FOULED BEN I UNDERSTAND WHY HE RUSHED THAT FAN THOUGH

Yeah he punched the wrong guy. Ben Wallace was the person who really wanted to fight him. But he wanted no parts of big ben

Yeah he may have went after the weak fan but he didn't want no part of Ben Wallace

You really want to throw debris at Ron Artest...the craziest guy in the sports...EVER!

Wowwwww! I did not know this.

Only thing Artest did slightly wrong was that there only like :45 seconds left in the game and your up 15, so you don’t have to hard foul. Other than that, he was actually pretty calm all things considered till the beer smoked him.

He certainly didn't want any of Ben Wallace.

Shut up you hit the person that hit you no matter who told who to do it

He got the right guy!😂😂😂😂

He punched the smallest dude.lols He was picking.lols

Actually he didn't punch the right guy. Otherwise he would've punched Ben Wallace who had just hit him in his chest almost knocking him down. Instead Artest goes after the little short pudgey guy with the hot dog & beer in his hand because he didn't want the smoke with Big Ben.

Artest justifying his actions. Unbelievable. He was scum back then and he still is today.

Somebody help Byron Scott here! His shoulders are tired carrying Artest’s water!

Ben Wallace was theee right guy. You just didn’t want that pressure

I always wanted to know why he Ron arrest when after the wrong guy 😂😂😂

When you get pissed, you don’t think straight.

The game of basketball changed forever because of a $50 bet

Fucking wild

I hate this MF.

If you make a bunch of money felony assault battery comes with no legal ramifications, 2 tier justice system at its best

Smart guy😂

What if He missed

Did people confess about the $50 bet? Why would anyone snitch on that??

Sounds about right. In this country, if you pay someone to murder someone, you're still charged with murder even if you didn't actually do it.

You know.... After everything that happened Ron Artest talking about, "Yeah, i got the right guy!" No... he didnt. See, this all started when Ben Wallace felt like the hard foul, that Artest commited, was unnecessary, and he let Artest know it, by putting hands on Artest, by pushing his head back. Artest... didnt want any part of Wallace, so he ran off to lay down on the scorers table.... with his tail tucked between his legs! So... after all that, he got hit with a bottle, that a fan threw. Now... I'm not saying, that the fan was right by doing that. However.... i look at it like this: If Artest, was such a big, bad, "Tough Guy," why didnt he put hands back on Ben Wallace? I'll tell you why. Because, Ben Wallace would have folded Artest... like a chair! And, Artest knew it. Now... here's my theory on it. If Artest would have have at least tried to retaliate in a physical manner against Wallace... That whole Riot wouldn't have happened in the first place! But, Artest.... in my opinion, was already pissed off, that Ben Wallace "Punked" him, and instead of handling that deal... He went up into the stands... to BULLY a fan, simply because... he KNEW he could! Again... I'm not saying it was right, or ok for that fan to throw a bottle at Artest... it wasnt. But, Artest could have let security handle that fan. And... wbile I'm talking about the whole, big, unnecessary, fight... Jermaine O'Neal, really had absolutely no business punching that FAT GUY, that stepped on the court towards him, and everyone else... simply because, at NO POINT was that fat, out of shape fan ANY threat to him WHATSOEVER! Come on now! Aint nobody got any guns in there... except for the police, and security! All that BULLSHIT probably cost Indiana a legitimate chance... to win an NBA Title. Steven Jackson... also, had absolutely no business going up into those stands also. Listen... Ron Artest, is a big, strong, guy, and could certainly handle himself against 99 percent of those drunk, out of shape, screaming, shit talkimg fans anyway! I understand the... "Im gonna have my boys back! "I'm gonna stick up for my teammates! All Jackson needed to do was simply try to grab Artest away from seriously hurting someone. Again, in my opinion... this WHOLE deal... got started because of Ron Artest... period. And, he's lucky... that the NBA allowed him to continue playing after all of that. He's had a long history of being a pain in the ass, MENTAL CASE! Great basketball player... but... at times, a lousy human being. This is just my take on it.

Yep he did! The guy who threw it was the one who grabbed him at the back while Ron punching the poor a** guy on a black shirt lol.

You buck on the fans but not the pistons you layed down test ion dig that

he was pissed with the little people. but back pedal and dont even do or say anything against ben wallace 😂😂

Fr

The better: “Oh no way you hit him!!!”
Ron Artest: I’m bout to do the same thing, he ain’t gettin’ that money, trust… 💀

Artest should have been madder at Wallace for going at his throat but he had a better chance going after these guys...

so diddy was the right guy

Yes of course....

Ron Artest is straight up from outta Queens

Ron, get it through your thick skull.
You shouldn't have attacked ANYONE.

Made YOU more wrong than anyone else in that arena.

LMFAOOOOOOO

I attacked the wrong guy😂😂😂😂😂😂

And then the legend of Captain Jack was born. Haymakers galore

THE BOTTOM LINE IS THAT HE WANTED NO PARTS OF BEN WALLACE!! HITS A NERD IN THE STANDS....🤣😂😅😅🤣🤣😂

Imagine you're a 5'6 guy probably weighing 150lbs and you see 6'7 Ron Artest charging at you probably feels like the the Hulk is coming for you lol

Ron Artest- wtf
Meta Worldpeace-wth

But Artest bitch ass didn’t want NOTHING to do with Big Ben.

Funny how you didnt attack ben wallace but attack a guy you knew you could prob beat. Ben would of broke you in half

Did that guy not get a fat paycheck

JoE GREEN DIDN'T GET THAT$50 LOL

Play dumb games🤷🏾‍♂️

This is a crazy twist to the story

Yeah, he attacked the wrong guy and he and the NBA paid dearly.

Much respect. He's clearly a changed man. A legend in my eyes. And I'm 2k he's my main go to player

The fact someone had to tell him that after me cry he know damn well he thought that was the person who hit him at that moment 😂

…

So he wasn't pissed about Ben Wallace pushing him down like a rag doll?
