Oh, please. If James made that shot, for good reason, he might have gone happy crazy, too. Being a Celtic has nothing to do with it. Besides, the kid shouldn't have been standing on the court in the first place. That's why they're called "seats."

In fact, Elizabeth, it would have been a lot funnier if Davis plowed over a little old lady who can afford two courtside seats costing over $80,000 a year. She would have probably told her gigolo to e-mail the NBA.

Maybe they should do away with "courtside seats" if your safety could be compromised…

Yes, Glen shouldn't shoved the kid. But he's a Celtic, that the only thing they know to do – shove people. Kids, opponents, little old ladies…

I hate Giant Infant with a passion, but that was a heat-of-the-moment, adrenaline-pumping incident. Davis probably couldn't even recall it happening when asked. Only in America.

i'm not feeling bad for anyone who has courtside seats to an nba playoff game.

Pretty funny. I noticed it immediately after Davis made that shot. I was watching from a sports bar, and I told somebody who was sitting by me, "Just wait, that kid's father is going to make a self-serving stink about it." And sure enough, there he is, seeking his few minutes of fame and/or a small cash settlement.

How much do you want to bet that the kid himself was thinking, "Man, that was so cool." He'll remember that moment in a fond way until the day he dies.

Fathers. Can't live with 'em, can't live without 'em.
