    What goes on in the personal life of a person I do not even know doesn't effect my "real world" (or yours). It is like when one watches the news; yes it sucks but one wakes up the next day and does what is needed to be successful. The sun will rise in the morning in the "real world". Let me know if you see it. You are right " TJ is a dumbass and needs to grow up fast." But this doesn't effect him as a basket ball player and that is all he is to most of us. He has the role of Rockets basketball player in most of lives he is not our friend. He is an entertainer.

    Lol at all you judgmental nobodies. Imagine this story was just replaced with Lin, it would be a freakout saying the cops are lying, he was set up, everyone would have his back, begging people "he's innocent!!"

    But alas, he's young, black and subsequently thrown under the bus.

    This.

    I want to know more about the details before jumping to conclusion.

    What if the homeless person yelled a racist remark towards Jones first which initiating the reaction?

    Jones hasn't had a history of problems before this incident so I would give him the benefit of the doubt.

    I don't think Lin would do that so we don't need to worry about it.

    "But alas, he's young, black and subsequently thrown under the bus."

    And you have the nerve to call everyone judgmental? That's exactly what you just were, bud, and I could have really done without reading that.

    Ugh. stop playing the race card. He is thrown under the bus because the witness is a cop and he was coming out late at night with some friends.

    That being said maybe the cop misinterpreted what he saw.

    You all are taking the side of heartlessness. The guy crossed the line and should be gone. And there is no one who will be willing to dispute the cops testimony. Why? Because it is true. And it hit the front page of cnn.com. Can it get any worse for Mr. "CU" Jones?

    Homeless people will bite you. You shouldn't stomp on them...

    Also, TJones is a terrible human being.

    Pfffft it's exactly what's going on. This thread is a circle jerk pile on - I'll wait for more information and for it to play out in court before I go bat**** crazy like people in this thread.

    I was curious how Lin could possibly get worked into this thread. This is the farthest thing that Lin would do. And Lin has heard plenty of racist remarks through the years.

    You're being as judgmental about the situation as anyone in this thread, so welcome to the circle jerk.

    But alas the Rockets employ numerous young African Americans. He is thrown under the bus for a reason. He disgraced himself and therefore the Rockets. Ditch the ***hole.

    There wouldn't be a problem if that homeless guy would have just woke up.

    28 pages about this?

    Seriously. to me a non issue, not because I'm a fan of Jones, but because in all fairness this doesn't seem like a big deal. The guy wasn't seriously hurt and we don't know all the details.
