Wow, wat a dusche, I am(was) one of EG's biggest supporters, and even wished him well on his next team, but when he goes over ther and goes billy wagner on us, that does it. WTf, steve went on tv and backed himup personally. I guess the idiot took it personally when all teh attention shifted towards Yao and everyone int he Rox org, was treating Yao as the baby, and just tended to forget bout Griff. WEll guess what griff, if you want to hang around in this league, you cant have a babysitter watching you 24/7, get over it and go pull off a Jason Williams.
You know he might be right but he should not be talking about his ex teamates. Those guys seemed to support him and now he is doing this. Hope he goes to jail.
Eddie should be ban from the league for his drug use but because he didn’t show up for practice and the Rockets game he avoided the penalty. Thank God for lawyers.
I wonder whose decision it was not to pick up Eddie's contract. I mean, even with all the crap, you can't trade him without the contract tieing him down for another year. They could have ridden him on the suspended list until his lawyers made their pleas and then put him in the blocks on rehab duty with the practice squad. It seems like they just cut him loose to send a message to the other guys. Was it worth it?
"It's everybody's fault but mine! Boo hoo hoo." (sniff, sniff) A walking human disaster. I'm another guy who tried to make every excuse for his behavior. What an a$$hole.
Wow...dont i feel stupid for continuing to support him.. after all the other players said and did to try to publicly support him...even to the extent that it sounded like SF was mad at the organization for getting rid of him... for Miss Griffin to come out like this?? hey Ms Griffin...didnt ya momma ever tell you that if you dont have anything nice to say, dont say anything at all? ugh...punk
Totally agree on this one.. hope he gets convicted and let those convicts teach him a lesson or 2 about life... damn you EG...
Ahhh, what is he like seven years old...you got put yourself in the mix of NBA veterans...grown men dont stck silver spoons in other men's mouthes...you got to watch OZ for that.
Just tell your former teammates you were getting high on pot and lost all sense of reason. They'll understand.
Doesn't Mo, Yao and Moochie(when he was here) live on the same street? Or is it just the same Neighborhood?
I agree. I too was one of Eddie Griffin's biggest supporters and forgave him much because of his youth. I try never to speak negatively of anyone, but this report is very, very disappointing. As one human being to another, I still hope Eddie gets his life together, but I am now realizing that his removal from the Rocket roster was best for the team.
January 31. The Houston crowd BETTER let Griffin have it. Get out there and let your voices be heard!
Anyone catch this? It says THE NETS hired a woman. Stefanski then says, "She's employed by us." EG replies, "She doesn't work for the Nets, she works for te NBA." Uh, Eddie ... P.S. The Rockets wouldn't hang out with you 'cause you were too young to get into the strip clubs.
Damn, some of these responses are embarrassing. All of you talk like you really know what was going on between Eddie and his teammates. Read a few articles and become experts...
