From the start of the game (Utah Jazz vs. Sacramento Kings), I noticed the fans taking a serious delight in taunting Sacramento’s Ron Artest. It was especially vicious stuff like, “Go beat your wife” and even, “Go feed your dogs!” The guy on the top right of the photo above is twirling his finger making the common gesture for INSANE.

In the second half it seemed to get to him. He got into a couple of shoving situations with Matt Harpring, and pretty soon I was just keeping the focus on him non-stop. Just in case.

At this point he scored and was fouled and started pounding his fist to the crowd. Lots of reaction there. But then he fouled Andrei Kirilenko and was thrown out of the game with his second technical foul. Look at the reaction of the Jazz fans as he walks to the locker room:
