but surely Portland was just out to malign his reputation….

You know it was rollin with 22s….every cop he drives by is gonna look hard at that car. You would think he would at least be driving with a valid license. Stupid….it’s kinda like speeding down I-5 in a glowing yellow Hummer and not thinking that the cops are gonna look at you….

How much money do you need to keep a valid license? Or let someone else drive? I am amazed at these kabillionaires who get DUIs and other stupid moving violations. For chrissakes, hire a driver.

So much potential, so little brains…

Think KP & Larry Miller are gonna try and file a grievance vs. the Player’s union to get the cap space back now?

They are holding D-League tryouts to find good yet cheap defensive wing players for next season. It would be very doubtful that they would have re-signed him for next season, he can still play but his athleticism that made him valuable is clearly gone. It was a cap screw job after all.

Poor Darius.

On the cap but I dont see why they would,the poor would get poorer and after The e-mail we are not their favorite people

I thought he was better than this.

I’m glad he could afford it.

I partook (is that really a word?) of that stuff more than my fair share back in the day and came to the conclusion that it just makes you stupid. Research since then has backed up my gut feeling. It messes with the production of certain neurotransmitters and, if smoked enough, permanently alters the structures that produce those neurotransmitters. Not convinced it should be illegal, but it just ain’t smart to use.

But it’s in a contract he signed. Guess it’s worth giving it up for millions, but it’s hard to obey unjust or unfair rules.

back in the day when things were cool
we used to meet up with these dudes
then we’d roll out on hopes and truths
and would ride around the park till its after dark
pumpin’ the trunk with the windows rolled up, puff
Badu

Unfortunately, dude seems to have no impulse control. Sad

It says OJ Mayo was being influenced off the court, and the Grizzlies wouldn’t bring him back.

LOLOLOLOLOLOL

Also lol at the National Pundits who thought Darius would amount to something. How many times does Darius have to fool you with the cries of wolf?

in order to stimulate the economy.

Just think of the amazing boon to the snack foods industry! All the extra demand will create new jobs which will restart everything else.

Yes, I’m being facetious.

So glad we dumped him…

Miles is an unrestricted free agent. He played in 34 games for the Griz this season. Although the Griz haven’t publicly stated their intentions, their plan was always to start next season without Miles.

The Griz grew weary of Miles’ waning work ethic and his relationship with rookie guard O.J. Mayo.

There was widespread concern in the organization about Miles’ off-the-court influence on Mayo near the end of the season.

really strike me as “immoral.” Yes, he should not drive without a valid license, but really, this is the moral equivalent of a late credit card payment at worst.

And the pot… don’t get me started. I don’t think it’s the most wise choice for someone who is a free agent trying to sell a team on his physical abilities. Not when he can potentially make millions by staying in tip top shape. Marijuana will impair you mentally (you’re less sharp) and probably physically (if you’re smoking.)

But it’s not immoral. It’s no worse than having a beer or three.

So really, he may be a favorite target, but c’mon. This is not an issue for me.
