    He should be RELEASED as soon as possible. I've been drunk and seen other people drunk, and it never made me want to stomp on someone.

    Would you have Kevin Love?.........

    He stomped Scola.

    Why haven't the Wolves traded him?

    I wasn't there for the incident, but the word "Stomped" doesn't match up with "minor injuries". Jones is a 6'9, 250lb guy, who's freakishly athlete, if he intended to stomp on a guy's leg, i'd think there would be major injuries.

    Not supporting Jones for the incident, just my 2 cent

    You just called Scola a Bum.

    Prepare your flame suit

    What exactly do you expect his lawyer to say? My client is a douche, please throw him in the slammer AFTER being publicly caned.
    This is the spin! Everybody knows that police officers are corrupt/inept and are always on the lookout to frame somebody! Right?

    If he didn't do this then why is he crying? You don't cry if your innocent, you cry when your guilty and get caught!

    back in 93 barkley gave an elbow to an opposing team when he was playing for the dream team. If you remember it wasnt all the hard but it was enough to say something to the player. The media blew it WAY out of proportion, claimed the whole team was a dirty team, when barkley was at fault. Calm down, we do not know the truth. Until I hear it from T Jones and I can decern (hopefully) with what really happened then I might judge. I mean damn, if it was a rodman kick to a cameraman style hobo beat down then lets get crazy. Until then relax

    This...

    Jones has to be more careful about how he carries himself. This is a major life lesson.

    You were not there. Only the parties involved were. The only piece of the account is from an officer. So, don't think.

    I know this is just an anonymous board, but the lack of sympathy for the homeless in this thread is pretty depressing.

    If you ever fall on hard times, I hope you receive more kindness from strangers than what can be felt here.

    I hope TJ learns from his mistake and owns up to it. He has a bright future. Thankfully the other guy was not badly hurt.

    Here's a reported story involving Jeremy and a homeless person:

    Eric Lee, a fellow economics major who lived with Lin, could have promised a different perspective, to no avail. Asked to identify Lin's demons, or so much as a class in which he struggled, Lee instead told of a time at an In-N-Out Burger in San Francisco, while he was a member of the Golden State Warriors. "We walk past this homeless guy, and I would've just ignored him," Lee says. "But [Jeremy] goes up to him and asks, 'Hey man, what do you want?' And he gets him a double-double and an order of fries."

    Not just the lack of sympathy. Its the discount of character that is alarming.

    Can't tell if serious but I sure hope not.

    I don't know what he did or didn't do but a lot of people in this thread seem to know exactly what happened and are judging him accordingly pretty quickly. It's quite funny.
