Note to Self: Never Call Glen Davis, "Chubs"


Remember when you were a kid and someone decided to make jokes at the expense of the fat kid in gym? Well, I have feeling that Celtics reserve forward Glen Davis went through that and still has some deep-seeded stuff that he might need to talk to a psychiatrist about.

That might be the only explanation for his swearing at a opposing fan during the Celtics-Pistons affair on Wednesday Night.

We get more from CSN New England:

The NBA is announced Thursday that Glen Davis was fined $25,000 for inappropriate comments he made to fan during Boston's 92-86 loss at Detroit.

The fine is a bit steep, but it could have been a lot worse for Davis and the Celtics.

In addition to a fine, the league could have suspended him.

In the second half of Wednesday's loss at Detroit, a Pistons fan named Scott Zack kept referring to Davis as "fat boy" and "chubs."

During a break in play, Davis turned to the fan, who was seated a few rows behind the C's bench, and yelled a suggestive obscenity.

Moments after the incident, Palace security officials approached Zack to investigate the matter.
The Pistons fan in the story, Scott Zack has since apologized on his Twitter page for this situation and regrets saying these remarks to Davis.

Also CSN New England, the fine is a little steep? $25,000 dollars is alot of money for yelling an obscensity at a fan. The last time I checked, it might be the highest fine for a player to incur for just an obscenity not directed at another player.

I will say this though, "The NBA Swear Jar" was already big before this (mainly from Rasheed Wallace) but damn, it can now afford to sent it's kid to college.

UPDATE-Here is the alleged video of Glen Davis telling that fan to "please him orally"

Video is NSFW
