    Persian Banned from NBA Games for Racial Taunting of Mutombo

    The NBA and Orlando Magic on Monday banned for the season the fan whose alleged racial slur incited Houston Rockets center Dikembe Mutombo.


    I thought there was more of a problem with white guys taunting black players in European stadiums but this Hooman Hamzehloui just got his season tickets taken away for calling Dikembe Mutombo a "monkey".

      How could he think calling someone a monkey is not bad. This story makes me sick. The only good thing is the remorse he shows and the forgiveness shown by Mutombo.

        How embarassing and shameful.

        However, if he was one of those who can't speak English well it was possible he thought it was a general insult lol

          WTH I just heard this on the news, they didnt release the guys name so I assume it was some redneck fan. But an Iranian?? Thats shameful but to his credit I thought he redeemed himself quite well. I guess he will donate $5,000 to a charity/foundation of Mutumbos choice, atleast thats what was reported on TV.
