Richard Jefferson Lands On David Lee's Shoulders After Dunk (VIDEO)

In the third quarter of San Antonio's 118-98 victory over the Golden State Warriors on Tuesday night, a fight nearly broke out after Spurs forward Richard Jefferson dunked on David Lee. Richardson received an alley-oop pass from Tim Duncan and slammed it in. On his way down, the 30-year-old landed on Lee's shoulders. The Golden State center immediately reacted, bumped Jefferson and both players needed to be separated. Scroll down to watch the video.

That was a very funny and mischievous provocation and a great way to start a random fight. And why not? The NBA would benefit from more fights.

No more fights- leave that for the White boys in NHL and NASCAR - that is acceptable violence.

David Lee just returned from a serious infection to his arm. If not, Jefferson might have been on his back.
I always respected Jefferson, but it looked like he could have avoided this classless move.

Good pass, OK dunk and low class finish. If he did that in a pick up game the gloves would be off. Very disrespectful.

That's pretty cool. I didn't think Jefferson could dunk anymore. Heck, I thought he was still on the NBA Missing Persons list.

Richard was simply making it clear to Lee that there is no place in today's NBA for someone that looks like him, unless he has talent.

Wow, I don't see how he doesn't get suspended for that.

What if he lost his balance and fell?
He would have looked like a fool.

Dear Huff-Po,

I find this article to be lacking substance. Yes I believe that their could have been sufficient content in this story to warrant a posting, but I find that you failed to deliver it. There is no mention of anything regarding this story beyond the event that took place. No follow up on consequences, either during the game or after the game. No comment by players or coaches in post game interviews. Not even a comment by the league regarding the indecent. As a consumer of information I am greatly disappointed in the sub par reporting found in the article. I have faith that you'll learn from this, and look forward to your future efforts.
