This may get moved, but since Denver is looming as a possible 1st round matchup, I believe it's relevant.

How does the NBA typically handle this stuff, anyone know?

What a great role model.... How can you do something like this so close to playoff time when your team is battling to even make it? A whole city is counting on you as the best player to lead them and your out getting drunk... AND DRIVING.... what an idiot

This guy is a real Jerk. I am sure he has plenty of money to have a driver take him on a night on the town. He is such a talent and will risk everything including him image (whats left of it).

:noway:

Easy guys while he has not done too many model citizen things in the past, the guy looks up to Kobe Bryant and they supposedly have a Big Brother LIttle Brother relationship. Not that this should excuse him, but he is young and people tend to make mistakes. I am sure he will live and learn.

Ok,

well Drunk driving IMO is bad because of the potential for hurting or killing others and its not something I support in the slightest.

That being said, he made a mistake, he is allowed due process. He is lukcy nobody got hurt and its best to just move on.

Don't know, blix, but I sure would like to know because he knows how to punk Odom all night long. If he's out for any of the possible games against us, that's a big break for us.

What an idiot.

Blix,
I think with all arrests. The NBA does their punishment after the legal verdict is handed down.

I dont see any thing happening from the League anytime soon....

I think Sasha is afraid more than Odom is.

Certainly not what Denver wanted coming down the wire and Lakers looming as first round opponet.
