Gonna on run on the floor? Be ready to get run into by a 7 foot athlete, pencil neck.
Oh, I agree. They are fair game as soon as they run on the floor. But he also brought the "injury" partly on himself by doing what he did. [Reply]

Exactly......
Tries to take a forearm to a rushing fan.....
Then whines that WF fans "intentionally" tried to hurt him.
**** off Kyle.... [Reply]
Yeah he's not exactly minimizing the space and trying to avoid anyone. Looks like he might be being a shithead, too. We'll see how "injured" he actually is. He may have just been pouting and hamming it up.
I'm a Caitlyn Clark fan but when she got hit in the shoulder she acted like she died. Had two people help her off the coach like she was on a gurney. Played fine the next game. [Reply]

But... he's taking a step as dumbass is running straight into him without a care in the world, of course he's going to react by putting his arms out.
It's just dumb to say "well, your split-second reaction is to blame".... no, it was the hoards of dipshit fans not paying attention.
It's pretty plain to see that he's trying to knock the kid who is taunting him right to his face as he runs by. What he did wasn't a natural movement by any stretch.
Again, that's fine if you want to do that (the taunting kid deserve to be knocked on his ass for sure) but it is also what resulted in his "injury." [Reply]

To each his own....
He was pissed they got beat....
Pissed the fans were rushing the court....
He reacted and now is saying....they did it on purpose.
Fuck him.... [Reply]

Yeah, I'd say it's a stretch that frantic fans 5 seconds after a win are out to injure an opposing player.
If a player gets injured though, that's on the court stormers.
And IMO, if someone in the hoard of court stormers gets injured by each other or an opposing player that's also on the court stormers.
In this case, maybe there was some fuck around and find out on both ends... but yeah, if I was a player in that situation, I'd also be pissed that I just lost and pissed that now there's a million fans running right at me.
And I don't like the idea of banning all court stormings, and pausing the storming long enough for players to get off the court or at least to the sidelines takes away from it... but, not sure what other solution there is so this kind of stuff doesn't happen. [Reply]
I'd love it if when students run on the floor/field, security surrounds them, not letting them leave the floor until at least their faces are recorded on camera for later consequences. You want to run out there, ok you outnumber us so it's hard to stop, but we'll be getting back to you with some kind of fine or whatever. [Reply]

You know he's already written a strongly worded letter to the competition committee by this afternoon.
