I don't condone what Smart did, but from his reaction when he got up, his head turned right to the guy, the fan must have said something very inappropriate.
looked like a tantrum to me. he is pissed cause his game is drawing fouls. when he doesn't get the call he bitches. he was pissed and looking for any reason to explode

Look at the replay...the fan said something to him that sparked this, we will never know what he said. The fan is a court side fan paying big bucks for those seat. Again, not condoning the reaction, but do you really think a player would do that to a fan without being provoked????
I know you don't condone it, so I'm not insinuating that you do; but frankly, it doesn't matter what he said. As an athlete, you are not only held to a higher standard, but also under a microscope. Can't let emotions get the best of him, which is exactly what happened. Composure, and professionalism. As much as it handcuffs them (probably unfairly), it's not only what they sign up for, but players shoving fans are just never going to be acceptable (in any capacity).
He could have said anything from calling him cheap for committing the foul and rubbing the loss in, to an outright offensive statement, like bigotry. And honestly, it doesn't matter. Can't be out of control like that.
This may be the first and last time I ever utter these words...
I wanna know what Doug Gottlieb has to say about it.
