EG actually had more than one chance before, from the team, Rudy, fans, Nets, ... just simply a loser.
....."run out of town " Gimme a break. Sounds like fast Eddie still hasn't accepted responsibility for his own actions. He screwed the Rox royally, even after they really hung in there with him. Denial is a wonderful thing. D R
Hi everyone, sorry to be not very aware, I started to follow the rockets recently. I know that he had disciplinary and personal problems (something like he punched and shoot his girlfriend?) but what happend exactly with e.griffin, can someone give me a short sum up? Thanks (i know i am lazy )
Well, its more than that. Hes had multiple run ins with police and has blown 3-4 opportunities to get himself back on track with the NBA. I still maintain that the only way EG ends up back on the Rockets, is if he 1) Begs CD/JVG for forgiveness and another chance and 2) Signs for the league vet minimum for one year with a team option for a 2nd year.
He found out his adopted older brother was doing drugs after he got Griffin to get his act together. Apprently he was someone Eddie looked up to and the news shattered his world. He refused to talk to his older brother after he found out, despite repeated calls and messages. Some time later his brother died and then Eddie found out that his brother had cleaned up and was trying to call and tell him that. Then he sunk into depression, and everything else is an extension of this root problem. It was in an article in ESPN magazine.
Yeah, somebody will hand him the MLE... ...trust me, if he were a commodity, he would be employed by now.
