This is pretty wild. Just before halftime of Monday's Warriors-Jazz game, a ballsy fan sitting behind Golden State's basket blows a loud whistle right as Mehmet Okur strips the ball from Ronny Turiaf. Thinking a ref has just called a foul, nearly everyone on the court stops playing. Psyche!

The public address announcer warned the crowd against unauthorized whistles but Kyle Korver's uncontested dunk stood.

Can you imagine if this had happened late in the fourth quarter of a close game?

Like I said before. At the next collective bargaining agreement, they are going to have to change some things. A lot of this crap going on the NBA is getting a little out of line. This is right up there with the Blazers having 6 men on the court.

I always wondered why more fans didn't do that. Did he get arrested or merely ejected or not even ejected?
