    I hope Donuts kills it during the euro tournament and/or the hobo doesn't press charges.
    It can't be good if the cops actually witness the act.

    The kid is 21, he made a mistake when was drunk. He just needs to accept the consequences and move on.

    No kidding!

    Who here hasn't gotten drunk enough to go and stomp on a homeless guy?

    I mean... seriously people!

    No big deal.

    He wasn't charged with assault. He was charged with harassment. Why don't we wait until we hear his side of the story? Obviously it's troubling but let's not make a mountain...

    Ehh not much to worry about as far as him facing time.

    The concern is drunk or not he's too old to do stupid **** like that especially when you are an athlete which is going to make the news go nationally. Also now his character will take a hit.

    What's with Rockets players and sleeping guys? First Kirk Snyder now this. :(

    We'll see how the case turn out but this is definitely a negative in my book.

    This board would have never survived Vernon Maxwell if this is the reaction to a small misdemeanour.

    Morey needs to trade all of his first rounders for 2nd rounders. I have 100% confidence in his 2nd round picks. 1st rounders....ehhhhh.....

    Let us hope this is a learning experience..
    Last few incidents I can think of:
    KLow throws ball at ref
    Royce White ..
    Morris punching a bar tender

    All led to trades. Can anyone else think of others?

    Pretty much.

    Ron Artest has done worse in a Rockets uni and he was never even charged of anything.

    He'll get a slap on the hand and a "don't do anything stupid like that again" from Morey and McHale and they'll move along.

    That's it.
