the tweets don't sound overly biased.
at least if the cops one is true, there should be something official recorded.

Someone asked Bonnell. Of course he doesn't know.

Whether he did it or not. Getting drafted by us and living around all of these local college fans with so much angst is going to get annoying.

I really hope he keeps his nose clean and this is a fake rumor.

if this rumor is true, let this be a lesson to anyone who discounts character and past behavior issues when it comes to wanting a player for the hornets.

if this rumor is false, let this be a lesson to anyone who believe everything they read on twitter. shame on you.

either way, there is a lesson to be learned here, right?

I been said it that we shouldn't draft this fool so close to his problems but nobody listens to ole Catch. This is just the first of many. Next it will be drunk driving or domestic violence in like another month or so. Lol smh

The lesson to be learned is not to draft a player with character issues in his hometown. Players like this need to be away from the people that can hold them back. Cho wouldn't know tho. He prolly never stepped foot in the hood or a urban community in his life.

it was said over and over, but it worth repeating again, getting drafted by the hornets was easily the most dangerous situation for hairston's future. lets hope that once he gets signed and starts practicing with the team (perhaps in the next couple of days), he can get away from these distractions for a while. on the other hand, this moron in las vegas for a week...

The guy has 30 followers. Praying its not true. Cho only drafts high character guys, takes a chance and may have gotten bit in the ass.

Maybe a fake rumor will be a blessing in disguise for us. PJ will get scared straight without actually having done anything!
