That guy should be banned from ever attending a game again. He is a potential threat to the safety of the refs and possibly the players on the oppossing team. What an a-hole

He literally walked right down the stairs and through security. THEN CLIMBS OVER THE BENCH.

That is pretty incredible.

There really is nothing stopping people from getting on the court. Actually surprised it doesnt happen more like in baseball.

I have a problem with security just walking him off, tackle him and kick his ass on the ground.

What a fucking idiot. That is something you never want to see. Nobody at the time knows who the dude is and anything and everything could happen in that situation.

It was his brother? It was a clean play, they had their hands straight up, just unfortunate he got hit in the eye.

Guess his family is just stupid, as he walked into the locker room you could see him yelling "fucking bullshit"

Clearly it was a dirty play... Jeff Xavier tried hurting the guys elbow with his face... then he's got the nerve to start bitchin cuz hes cryin blood. Prov was winning at the time and can arguably have been the games turning point that let marquette back in the game

It was Jeff Xaviers brother. after he came on the floor xavier went nuts himself. i was watching live and was pretty weird. the announcers didn't stop talking about it the rest of the game either. at least he called timeout

What makes him a scumbag thug? He had baggy jeans and a a big jacket on?

I don't mind him doing that. He clearly wasn't out thier to cause problems. He wasn't running to avoid security. He was just pissed that his brother got hurt and walked onto the floor. He clearly was caught up in the moment and wasn't thinking clear.

I'm not saying it was OK but I put this more on the security. He clearly wasn't a danger and if their had been some security he would have never even touched the court.

I don't approve of it but I don't think it was a big deal. I also don't think scumbag thug is a good word for this situation.

I think if you want a scumbag thug go watch Stephen Jackson in the Ron Artest thing. Thats a scumbag thug.

i like how he was trying to call a timeout. he walks out making a t with his hands saying "time out time out time out". I don't think the crowd is allowed any timeouts...

also, why didn't they get a technical? i thought if a player or fan does something to disrupt the game they got a technical?

was stupid but agree with gimmedat...guy was extremely non-threatening...never acted aggressively, clearly he wasn't thinking straight but it's not as if he ran onto the floor throwing haymakers. Should he have done it? No...but it probably looked worse to him and he was expectedly upset. They probably should have awarded a tech though.
