NBAers get Spanked, Literally

May 17, 2010 - Los Angeles, California, U.S. - Phoenix Suns forward Grant Hill (33) argues with official Jason Phillips (23) after a foul in the second half of game one of a Western Conference Final Playoff basketball game as the Lakers beat the Suns 128-107 at the Staples Center on Monday, May 17, 2010 in Los Angeles.
You would think that it would take something extreme to rile up 2009 NBA Sportsmanship Award winner, Grant Hill, of the Pheonix Suns. However, last night in a preseason game between the Suns and the Toronto Raptors, Hill flipped his switch when Raptor Reggie Evans slapped his butt just a little too hard. Hill returned the favor by spanking Evans. The two were then ejected from the game.

As idiotic as this appears, it gets worse, because Hill, and Evans, are facing fines for their behavior. Hill's coach even warned him prior to the incident to not get riled up by Evans in order to save Hill some money in a meaningless presseason game.

Its hard to appear as a tough guy when you are ejected for a spanking. Good luck living this joke down.
