He thought they were just annoying fans, without noticing they were a) really tall and b) had a gigantic golden trophy with them.
The San Antonio Spurs had a pair of Aussie bros, Patty Mills and Aron Baynes. We now know that they are running around Australia with the Larry O'Brien Trophy, wreaking havoc.
An Australian Rules Football reporter was doing a live standup in Melbourne when the pair bumrushed his shot, causing him to shove Mills away, unaware that he was shoving an NBA player with a shoulder injury (via CougCenter)
The reporter, Julian De Stoop, explained he thought they were fans of Collingwood F.C., the team whose training ground he was standing outside of. For his part, Baynes had fun with the shove:
@FOXSportsNews hope you got #Lazzas good side! @Patty_Mills said the hit from @JDESTOOP80_FOX will keep em out another couple months
— Aron Baynes (@aronbaynes) July 15, 2014
Mills and Baynes are doing a series of appearances down under with the trophy. While the Stanley Cup makes the international rounds every year, it seems like the Spurs Trophy Tour -- Manu Ginobili took it to Argentina -- is the first time the trophy's ever been out of North America.
