Rafer Alston arrested for DWI

Yet another NBA player with a DWI. Wonder if it will cost him any games this season. Doesn't seem like NBA players are getting the hint with the 2 game suspensions.

Well now that the Rockets acquired Ron Artest, I'm sure his maturity and experience will rub off on the rest of the guys including Rafer. :)

Lol, because a Jazz fan started this thread has nothing to do with
rafer's substance abuse problems. It sounds as though Reefer
should have been arresred for being a drunk. He plays like he's
hungover 85% of the time - perhaps if he can curtail his illegal
activities he can reduce his trash meter to only 70% of the
time.

I will reserve judgment until I find reports that say he was actually drunk. There is a difference between drinking and driving and driving drunk.

I apologize for my obviously homeristic approach to this thread.

Can't you just hear the bias in my voice.

since it worked last year, and he didn't get traded, guess he thought he should try it again. He loves playing for the Rockets

This is brilliant.
See, he knows the Artest deal is right around the corner. Thus, his way of making Ron Ron feel welcome is to prove that other players on the team have legal problems, too.
This is an act of unity!
