lol a drunk belligerent Oakley put his hands on other men COUNTLESS times. Imagine that was your pops or uncle working security yall would still have this foolish stance???? Yall are grown men now not boys get over the fanaticism of Oakley. He was wrong point blank period. Dolan even tried to bury the hatchet with him and Oakley still mad, he’s a hater and he can go. Oak even hating and throwing shade on Patrick Ewing. Oak is not it.

Look I love me some oak and I don’t care if people come for me but from this clip alone, this falls on oak. You can’t just act and react any way you want bc of who you are bc truth be told, even down to the end, if this was anyone else, this would have ended totally different. And love him or not, which I do, a spade is a spade and not one of them security guys/ladies were aggressive or rude to the slightest for him not only to mush a guy in his face with his finger but then get aggressive with the other one after. This was poor all the way around

If Oakley doesn't panic we win a chip. Paint parted like the Red Sea down in Houston and Charles couldn't take advantage cause he's not a true baller.
