Wow. Either Wilkins got him good or he "resisted arrest".

You heard it here first
A couple of years ago on this forum I contended that people who are in their early and mid 20s are not mature enough to serve as officials for upper level games. This story serves as an example of exactly what I meant. The NBA pushed these youngsters up too fast and got bit in the backside for it.

Agree !!!!!!!!
I just don't think that most of us have the people and social skills to be dealing with the NBA World at the age of 23 - 26.

I remember Darrell Garrettson (RIP) saying one year at Coast to Coast that this wasn't the real world. I honestly don't know how some of those guys
are able to keep it all together at such a young age !!!!!!!

I do not think age has anything to do with it. It seems like this guy just has some issues when you are attacking someone over a suit in the first place.

Peace

The issue was $13,000 worth of suits.

If someone owed me 13 thou, I might have issues with him too.

I agree, but not that way. Go to court.

Peace

Spoken like a true Yankee fan.

As a member of the choir, I would like to thank you for your sermon!

As for the "Suit Suit" (can't believe THAT wasn't a headline) it does not suprise me that 'Nique owes the man money. How many times, recently Dez Bryant, do we see athletes stiff small business owners for money? It won't take you long to find a lot of information on that.

Dang, 'Nique was just T'ing up on the guy!
