Man I'm glad none of these clowns are Pacers.

Vitor Favorani, DUI
Ray Felton, Weapons charge
Greg Oden, Domestic Battery
Marreese Speights, DUI
Ron Artest, Idiot changed name to Panda's Friend.

DUI's are stupid, but not so much so that I would exclude them from employment forever. Oden certainly looks bad, and Felton is just not a guy to acquire in any way. Artest, well. We all certainly know him.

You excluded PJ Tucker's "super" DUI.

One of those pandas better never throw a beer at him.

We did have Lance Stephenson on our team for 3 seasons and what he did was worse.

Lance was tamed during his stint with the Pacers. Immature on most times in the court and in the locker room but I am glad he did not get arrested for something. Except for that fight with a woman, which was in the early stages of his career, and that affair with a pornstar, he behaved well.

Sometimes I wonder who or what do you fans think you are watching? American Athletes (especially NBA, MLB and NFL) have never been choir boys. The humorous thing is that many ppl (fans/media) seem to judge these guys as if they live for the fans. If every player did something stupid tomorrow and it made the news would you say the same thing about them all? Did you know Paul George got a Miami stripper/prostitute pregnant. That was an idiotic thing to do. And Prostitution is illegal. Imagine during those playoffs two years back in 2012 if Paul had been arrested while the team was in MIA. I wouldnt be surprised if other current Pacers have made some bonehead moves and just didnt get caught. These are athletes; most of them have made some bad decisions at some point. As a high school basketball coach for almost ten years; Im sure of it.

I knew there was more! How'd I miss the "Super" DUI? I wonder what that involves?

Have you seen Ray Donovan?

Anyhow your statement about PG getting with a stripper/Hooker, I've had my share of "Involvements" with the occasional stripper. A few years ago I was making a lot of money and tended to spend my nights and a lot of my cash in the west Indianapolis club called "Dancers." Being a decent looking guy of 6'3'' and 240 or so helped but the large amounts of cash I was tossing around helped a lot more. I had one stripper after another tossing her phone number at me. Imagine a good looking young NBA player like PG making millions of dollars, he could drop $10k in one night and not miss it.

Finally it all reminds me of the first time I was talking to a hooker in a bar, when she went to my hotel room with me and then asked me for money, I said, "YOU'RE A HOOKER!! I just thought I was doing great with you!!"
