Kind of surprising. Did Cleavland suspend Lebron when he had his speeding trouble?

funny **** 1 game lol i was scared of the reported 10 games seen from different places. lol Minnesota is their first opponent. Anyone else see their first 4 games Minnesota, New Jersey, Cleveland, and Toronto the worst teams in the NBA and they are the worst in the NBA.

There goes our shot at starting 4-0.

Lame, whatever, hopefully now this can go squarely in the rear view mirror as we speed off into the future, but I'm sure someone will continue to pick it up and hitchhike it along as Tyreke's career continues to accelerate.

Eh, I'll take it, it's only a game and we'll move. Don't we start out with the T-Wolves anyways?

Even with tyreke being out the 1st game i would be surprised if we lose. Twolves are a total wreck its going to be hard to imagine that team winning 20 games.

Not surprising. One game is very fair.

But I would like to think that without the emergence of the video of Evans' reckless driving (more publicity), there will be no suspension. I mean, without the re-interest now of the Evans' reckless driving back in late-May, most people would have forgotten the whole thing in general.

Right now I'm wondering, who asked for the video? (someone needed to properly ask for the video from the CHP to be open to the public).

And the Sacramento Bee were the first media outlet/newspaper who released the video in their website. Hmmmmmmmm...

I wouldn't be surprised if she was the person who requested the tape.

From what I seen, she is anti-Evans from the start.

She's anti-Kings. She never misses an opportunity to jump on Kobe's **** and praise the Lakers. It's makes me violently ill to read her crap.

Thank you ICMTM for a real world perspective.

And to the "source" of this idiocy, can we start some kiind of campaign to get rid of that dyke?

I'm sorry, I;m not predigous or really like that, but she really chaps my hide big time. Besides being a complete idiot about sports and spouting stupidity constantly, now whe's outright trying to personally destroy the Sacramento sports scene.

The new version of that idiot Graswich. He probably gave her the pictures of the editor with his mistress that he had to keep his job all those years.

Meh...no big deal. The NBA does what the NBA does and it's not going to ruin the season. I suspect that this has more to do with the fact that there was a reckless driving count that went along with the speeding. The NBA does have essentially automatic suspensions for convictions (or guilty/non-contest pleas) for offenses at the level of reckless driving. So this news shouldn't be a surprise.

If you want her gone my first piece of advice would be to not call her a dyke. That sort of immaturity is the sort of thing she complains about, not being taken serious and the like, for being a woman in a man's world (sports writing). You're just proving her point. Also the word is prejudiced.

Incidentally, while blaming her may make some people convinced she is a Kings hater feel better it won't actually accomplish anything. Any one of a thousand different people could have requested the video's release, assuming it's Voison maybe is giving her too much credit.

Got off easy. What he did was not only dangerous and reckless but incredibly selfish by putting others in danger as well. Hopefully he's learned his lesson.
