3.5 months = half year awesome I love how efficient you guys think the justice system is. I mean, no way LV has a ton of misdemeanor backlog.
Here's the court document stating the prosecution's account, read for yourself how ridiculous the charge is: http://media2.myfoxhouston.com/news/2012-01-05/kyle-lowry-las-vegas.pdf My personal favorite: "the suspect knowingly threw a basketball at her… The victim and both witnesses believe that his intent was to hurt her and that HE COULD HAVE HURT ANYONE OF THEM BY HIS ACTIONS." OMG is raining lethal basketball, all run away from the gym, and only licensed people can be in possession of a basketball from now on.
Agreed. Hey to pwn all of these morons who think a basketball to the face hurts, let's setup a demonstration where we record me hitting you in the face with a basketball 10 times. then you say to the camera "can't even feeeel it!" then we do it 20 times! Email me to set this up.
Making this personal and directing your argument at another poster, that's really going to win you an argument.
....Don't know why you feel taking side. But it should be obvious to you that those referees are highly unprofessional....or inexperienced. Why? Because pro refs are used to talking smack, threats all the time. They could take it. Question Violet Palmer. I guess she would shrug it off like it was nothing.
I don't understand why people aren't behind Kyle. What he did was wrong but he immediately went and apologized and took responsibility for his actions. But a lot of people here want to take it further stating that he is a piece of crap for making a mistake. People are judging him without knowing all of the facts. Many people think that it's good to hold judgement until they really know what happened. I think if we knew the whole story that you would see that this wasn't just a one sided incident and that she has to be an instigator in the situation also. I wonder if she apologized after Kyle did. Again he was wrong and he admitted so but we as fans have never seen anything but good hard play from Kyle and maybe we should give him the benefit of the doubt until more is known.
I am trying to prove all of these morons wrong with a simple demonstration. If you don't want to be in it that's your loss.
I never called anyone a moron, therefore I have no stake in proving such. Please leave me out of your agenda.
You make it sound like he grabbed her and beat her up. People act like the basketball is some sort of weopon. There are always two sides to a story. I don't doubt Kyle was a jack ass and probably deserved to get his ass whipped for what he did. But when taken as a whole I think what he did falls under the catigory of jerk not criminal.
I don't have an agenda. I am giving you the opportunity to prove a basketball to the face is nothing. Certainly a stud like yourself could easily take what a GIRL should be asked to forget about. seriously bro I have the hookup on a pro camera man. Let's do this!
I'm having a hard time finding where it said she was hit in the face. why don't you show me where it said that. Oh wait you can't.
Awesome! Good point. Hit her in the shoulder when she didn't know it was coming. Hey are you in on the demonstration? You look the other way and take a few basketballs to the front shoulder on camera. that other guy is stalling on me but we could always have a bunch of guys do it.
Had it happen to me a few times in the past. Wonder whether I should go back and take them to court. @CaseyH what a moron YOU are.
Dude, I think I need to find a guy who can throw as hard as Lowry. I know a 6'5" Div 1 pitcher. I guess he will have to do.
