A fan comes out of the stands and ON the court and runs the officiating down? The official should be reporting that; not the fan. Fans coming out on the floor during a game are a security problem.

I don't have to wait and get the fan's side of the story on this one, if what you said is true. Fans have no business being out on the court at any time, and especially so if they're yapping at officials while they're out there.
