Hard to draw the line. After all, you're in an away game, a hostile crowd, a hostile environment, an opponent who is your rival historically and a fan base that isn't new to the controversy scene. I'm sure Big Baby isn't the only one to have been heckled this way and neither is he the only one to have lashed back but if I blame the fan, then I'm putting the excuse on the fan for Baby's poor performance..He needs to tune those fat taunts out and focus on the game. and lets face it...the guy is called Big Baby for a reason...hes not exactly KG thin or Rondo thin..

It seems silly he'd even let it bother him. Dude, you're not fat. Why let something from the past bother you?

Plus nothing wrong even if he was big sized. Shaq is big sized, Perkins isn't exactly lean either..Big sized men have their place in the league and so theres no reason for him to be bothered by something such as size...its a whole different thing if it was about maybe his parents or something like that.

How about this: we start "heckling" David Stern as "kermit the frog." Yes, he does look like him. And, while we are at it, let's heckle Mrs Stern as "Miss Piggy." Never seen her, so that may not be accurate. Fair or unfair, name calling, or "heckling" is wrong.

But if you get rid of heckling, you'd get rid of fans. Like it or not, a lot of people like to hoot and hollar when they're at a sporting event. Heckling is here to stay.

Never seen her, so that may not be accurate. Fair or unfair, name calling, or "heckling" is wrong. i've wanted to do this and actually have on several occasions. not david stern in particular but i do do this to people that talk (censored) all the time. i find it entertaining mainly because i'm a disturbed individual with a great sense of humor? KG does this all the time too. People talk (censored) to him he just does it about 900 times louder right back. It's funny as hell. Larry Bird was a master at doing this with his actions. People would talk smack to him he wouldn't say a word as he'd drop shot after shot in your face. Same thing but different approach. STern is a control freak just trying to "protect" the integrity of the league. Unfortunately he is a gigantic hypocrit sometimes. Leave Baby alone. The issue is closed i'm sure as far as baby is concerned but the league has to do their thing to make it whatever.
