Marcus Haislip\'s Punch

Yesterday, Turkish Basketball League\'s(TBL) top two teams played, Efes Pilsen vs. Fenerbah? ?ker. In the third period of the match, maybe the biggest fight of Turkish basketball history broke out. It was different from the notorious Pacers-Pistons brawl, as this occured just on the court, not in the stands :P .

But Marcus Haislip(you know this guy from Tennessee, who played for Milwaukee and Indiana for short periods) threw the best punch I\'ve ever seen on basketball court(OK, second best after Jermaine O\'Neal\'s one to a fan in Pacers-Pistons brawl) to Mirsad Trkcan(you can also remember him, he had played 2 seasons in NBA with Knicks and Bucks). He just found where he wants to punch. After retiring, he may well continue his career as a professional boxer.

By the way, both of the players were ejected. I believe they will be punished for up to 6-7 matches.

He should deffinetly try boxing after basketball!

I\'m surprised that dude was still standing after THAT punch.:blink: He got nailed.

that was one hell of a punch

It woulda been crazy if someone pulled a Mike Tyson and tried to bite off someone\'s ear.

If he threw a punch like that in the NBA he\'d be looking at a 20 game suspension.
