bdub77 ![]() So what really happened that day? Let's just for a moment speculate shall we? We have the bodyguard moving around 10:15, p.m. distracting the police making it easier for the drink throwers to move into their places. The bodyguard later vanished, never checking into a hospital. The A-team gets in the entry and exitway. They were refurbishing the floors that week, which allowed unknown workmen access to the building. They move quickly into position just minutes before the fateful drink throw. The spotter on the radio talking to the other two fans has the best overall view, the God spot. B-Team one thrower and one spotter with radio gear and access to the building, moves into the lower floor of the building. The third team, the C-Team moves into the line of fans behind the police escort, where the thrower and the spotter are first spotted by the late Dominic Klaus in the watch tower of the stadium. They have the best position of all. LeBron is close and on a flat low trajectory. Part of this team is a coordinator who has flashed security credentials at people. Probably 2-3 more men are in the crowd on the left side. Three drink throwers. Three spotters. The triangulation of fire that had been discussed two months before. They have walked the stadium. They know every inch. They have calibrated their sight. They have practiced on moving targets. They are ready. Lebron's security detail motorcade makes its way down the corridor. It's gonna be a turkey shoot. They don't shoot him coming up the corridor, which is the easiest shot for a single shot from the arena. They wait. They wait until he gets in the killing zone, between three drinks. LeBron makes the final way out of the arena, slowing down to some 2 miles an hour. The throwers across the left side tighten, taking their aim, waiting for the radio to say "Green! Green!" or "Abort! Abort!". The first throw rings out with a crunch of ice and soda, it misses them completely. Frame 161, LeBron stops waiving as he hears something. His bodyguard's head turns slightly to the left. Frame 193, the second drink hits LeBron in the back. Frame 225, LeBron turns, you can see that he's obviously been hit. The third throw, frame 232, takes LeBron in the back again pulling him downward and forward. The bodyguard, you'll notice shows no signs at all of being hit. He is visibly agitated. He is turning here now, frame 238 the fourth throw. It misses LeBron and takes the bodyguard in the shin. This is the throw that proves there were two throwers. The bodyguard yells out "My God! They are going to kill us all." Somewhere around this time another throw that misses the entourage completely, strikes another policeman down under the corridor. LeBron stops. The sixth and final throw, frame 313 takes LeBron in the head from the front. This is the key shot. LeBron going back and to his left. Shot from the front and right. Totally inconstant with the shot from the stands. So what happens then? Pandemonium. |

It's a mystery wrapped in a riddle inside an enigma! The farkin' throwers don't even know! |

| IAmRight Throwing basketballs at Wade's head when he turns around, throwing beers on LeBron...congrats on being sub-human filth, Boston fans (I can use plural because it took at least two of them to do both acts)! Miami fan: "Good game, good effort!" to his team after a loss. Boston fan: *throws beer at opponent after a loss* Congrats especially on throwing away all the good karma that many of the fans had built up by chanting "Let's go Celtics" for the final 3 minutes of the game as a send-off for Game 7. |

The fan simply dropped his beer at the mere sight of such greatness walking by. Your muscle control too will suffer when bestowed with such a presence. Nothing to see here. |

Will you start wearing appropriately-fitting underwear after this series is over, or are we going to have to put up with this bullshiat out of you on the Sports tab for the Finals, too? |

Imagine throwing a beer on a guy who's 6'8, 250 and much faster than you in any other situation. You're a pussy, beer throwing Celtic fan. |

Please feel free to point out anything I said that was over the line. I was even nice enough to point out that many more fans had their own "Good game, good effort" moment that was nice to see before that happened. you have pee hands: Imagine throwing a beer on a guy who's 6'8, 250 and much faster than you in any other situation.

Should have thrown the beer at the Celtics for wilting under the Heat's pressure. Bad job bad effort. But knowing the Celtics history they never take the easy way. I'm hoping Miami puts balloons in the ceiling rafters in anticipation of a Heat win. |

This. I've been watching with my wife. She liked the chanting at the end for the Celtics, but said dumping a drink Lebron was not cool. This is not how you make fans Boston. //her favorite player is Ray Allan's mom with her sparkly shirts. |

| IAmRight Devo: She liked the chanting at the end for the Celtics, It made me angry because I was thinking "dammit they're doing the right thing." But seeing the ball throw on replay and the beer toss restored my opinion of Boston fans! /I'd still rather they win than the Thunder //unless the parade runs over David Stern and Clay Bennett in OKC, then I'd be okay with a Thunder win |

If only, at the time, LeBron was headed toward a waterproofed room with running water from an overhead source by which he could wash his skin. I mean, he wouldn't use it right away (gotta have those post-game interviews), but maybe it'd give him an idea. Maybe include supplies of surfactant and a container with which to store dirty clothes. Maybe also a personalized & locked storage area he could access with a spare set of clothing. What would we call such a place? Maybe name it after those personalized storage areas, so. . . "personalized storage area room"? |

Feel bad for the guy who makes more money than any one of us ever will combined. What, he doesn't shower after the game anyways? Probably not. And people who pigeon hole an entire city for one person's actions are about as stupid as the internet is old. The only person who should give a shiat is Lebron. And I'm sure he's not online today complaining on internet message boards. |

Link You know, it's only on Fark where people aren't outraged at such a disgraceful act. I think I know why nobody come to Fark to talk basketball. |

I like it when the best players in the league get all red assed and take it to another level. Jordan did that all the time. It was like he was so insulted that you would step on the court thinking you even had a chance that he would just murderize you. That's what LeBron looked like last night. |

Go ahead and bring out Pierce's signature wheelchair. Because LeBron isn't going to shoot 75% on back to back nights. That is where I am. Celtics cant play much worse and LeBron cant play much better. That doesnt mean the C's will win next game but it isnt going to be a blowout. Should be fun. |

Fallout Boy: Link You know, it's only on Fark where people aren't outraged at such a disgraceful act. I think I know why nobody come to Fark to talk basketball. Or fans of any sport have come to expect these actions from Boston and Philly fans, so we're not exactly outraged after so many of these events. |

And immediately afterward, Rajon Rondo was hit up with a T. |

IAmRight: Throwing basketballs at Wade's head when he turns around Give me a break. The guy was looking at Wade, then looked at the ref, then tossed the ball as Wade walked away. He wasn't even really looking at Wade when he tossed it. And, when it hits Wade, the guy cringes with an "oh my god, I didn't mean to do it" look. It's not like he wound up and threw it at him. It was even less than KG's ball toss to Battier. |
