Nope, not trying to get attention at all, eh Mary?


Thus the reason they will probably look to trade him for 10 cents on the dollar. I think everyone agrees what he did was horrible but that was outside the basketball court.



Character matters. Plain and simple. It's one thing for a guy who is already under contract to have some trouble, but to ink a guy immediately after he committed a seemingly savage violent crime? That makes no sense whatsoever.

NEW YORK -- Indiana Pacers draft pick Lance Stephenson, after pushing his girlfriend down a flight of stairs, grabbed her and hit her head on the bottom step, prosecutors said Monday.

I understand that you enjoy taking the 'alternative' view on this message board from time to time, but at this point you really haven't provided much more than "Oh, since he's a criminal now, he'll be cheap...Let's get him!". That, and of course falsely reporting that Jrich has two DUI's within a two month time frame while with Phoenix.

Didn't see the full story on ESPN before, looks like it's more serious than orginally reported. Well guess that takes care of that.

No one will touch himi until they know whether or not he will do time for what he did. He'll have a court case, which is sure to affect his head and his play. I understand the concept of buying $0.10 on the $1, but there is a reason they are valued so low.
