Ernest Provetti complained that Glen Davis pushed his son so hard that the son's cap came flying off. Ernest Provetti sent an e-mail to the NBA League office in which he called Davis a "raging animal with no regard for your fans' personal safety."

Ernest Provetti backed off his statements after a public backlash ensued over the absurd complaint.
