A Malicious Night


Oh we've seen fights break out in sports. Many times. But have you seen fights between players and fans? Not so much. And that's exactly what happened in Malice At The Palace; the historic encounter between the Indiana Pacers & Detroit Pistons in the National Basketball Association (NBA).

What makes Untold: Malice At the Palace stand out is that it doesn't just focus on the occasion; it goes right back to how the players started out; such as Jermaine O'Neal; who endured a tough childhood and journey to the NBA. It then touches on the intense rivalry at that time between  the Pacers; regarded as the best team in the NBA; and the Pistons; the defending champions who seemed unbeatable at that time.

What I also like about the documentary is its graphic attention to detail; multiple camera angles covered the occasion; and it even goes to show who started the stands riot in the first pace; a beer-throwing fan that hit Artest that sparked the all-out frenzy. These aspects are what make the documentary one of the best you will ever watch.
