Wow you people are so uptight.

I don't know if I'm gonna boo... it's really no big deal at all.

On the one hand, he was sorry, and went to the hospital to apologize.

On the other hand he still seriously injured one of our players with a careless and foolish swipe and deserves some slack for it.

I can see reasons for and against boo-ing, and I won't hold anything against someone who does either.

in a perfect world, booing every single player on the opposing team every time they touched the ball regardless of what they've done would be the way to go. what's stupid is booing your own players. how the hell is that gonna help your team.

I see no reason to boo him. TJ had his problems before Horford. And also, I was noticing the other day how no one boos John Salmons. That guy deserves some static.
