    Hah, good catch! :)

    I hope to God this isn't true. Besides I just don't see Rafer as being someone who would get into something like this. If it is true, then I hope ESPN won't blow this up more than it needs to. At least not until we trade Rafer.

    It's a shame, aside from his "occasional" poor play on the court.. he seems like such a likable guy.

    Makes sense, then... sounds like a drunken scuffle. Maybe the guys who followed Yao home were taunting him coming out of bar? :p

    Or maybe he got drunk and tried to go Tonya Harding on Mike James in order to keep his spot? :p

    For a second I thought it was public indecency and assault. Confused me... thought maybe he was pulling an Eddie Griffin and then got into a fight over somebody disturbing him having a good time.

    I think he got it from the message board. I can't open it because you have to be a subscriber.

    Apparently the arrest happened after an off-duty officer witnessed the suspect brick shot after shot in a game of "Nothing But Net" at the local Dave and Buster's.
