    I dont think that's accurate....it looks like the cops were called out, if not there already, to make sure nothing got out of hand. They probably told them to quit arguing or they would be arrested. You can see Francis didn't listen, probably because he's on something. After the cop pulled him back, Francis is still going, so they went ahead and took him away.

    That's what usually happens when youre under the influence of drugs. It's not aggressive behavior that gets you in trouble, but just the inability to follow simple directions.

    Nobody will be able to help him until he admits he has a problem and is ready to help himself. More than likely he will have to hit rock bottom first. I will pray for him.

    That concert at the Roxy was 3 weeks ago. I remember seeing stuff about it on instagram. I definitely would not have fit in if I were there

    I don't feel sorry one bit.

    Dude had millions and burned it away.

    There are millions of people in worse conditions that never had the talent he had.

    That sounds eerily similar to his NBA career.

    I earnestly believe Francis has had a drinking problem since he was with the Rockets, from the get-go. Remember all those "migraines" he used to get? My belief at the time, being just a punk-ass teenager, were that the migraines were exacerbated by alcohol (or likely, purely alcohol related). There was also a rumor that he had been cited for DUI on more than one occasion.

    Just speculation. But in hind sight, tell Steve Francis we want our money back.

    Those migraines were confirmed by doctors to be symptoms caused by Ménière's disease, not drinking. Dude had to completely overhaul his diet to prevent them.

    *Sorry for bump, been away from board for a while*
    No a rich celeb doesnt need to have their issues pedestalized over everyone else's

    Though how do you know that the have-nots, the people that have less - how do you know they WOULDN'T do the same thing if they DID have what Francis has?

    Can even make a case that having MORE can actually exacerbate and MULTIPLY the problems WORSE.

    Yes can't give someone much sorrow when they have more than enough resources that everyone else to recover, that other's DON'T have. Though problems are problems no matter the privilege, self induced or not. And its unfortunate Francis's problems are this severe now. Or rather than feeling sorry for him, its still just kinda sad to see

    Sad to see this kind of stuff happen, especially Stevie getting arrested when he was so relaxed and non-combative the entire time.

    On a separate note, some of the other clubbing scenes in that vid can simply be described as:

    So dumb and so much cash wasted, smh
