This Shawne Williams cat must be some sort of pest, because for the second time in less than a month he was in the middle of some trouble. Last time he got into it with Ron Artest, this time with Hawks forward Marvin Williams. Here’s a video of the Marvin Williams-Shawne Williams fight from Friday night in Atlanta:
Marvin was immediately ejected and then Shawne was sent off as well after refs reviewed the play. Both players should expect suspensions from the league for throwing punches (if you can call them that), and Marvin’s suspension might be slightly harsher. As for our suspicion that Shawne is a pest, that’s exactly what Hawks forward Al Horford said “Marvin is a great guy. Shawne really had to get under his skin for Marvin to react like that, or do something to him.” The good news is the Hawks won, the bad news is that it happened so late you wish Marvin could have just let it go.
