Now he has Matt Barnes defending him. I guess that is the kiss of death.

Lol to all the people saying they'd be so harsh on him. Fining him a ridiculous X amount of money or being hard on him so he gets the picture. The negative feelings you had for Shabazz pre-draft are coming out. Everyone beware. We have a bunch of hypothetical hardasses in the Wolves front office...

He hasn't done drugs, hurt anyone or done anything illegal. Give the dude a break. You know damn well you made silly mistakes when you were younger. Not a big deal. He has to attend the camp next year and that's embarassing enough. Let's move on.

Shabazz broke a rule that seems very easy to follow, yet here's one of the billions of times when a man thinks with his dick. I really think some of you are just bashing him because you never liked the pick in the first place and have hate for a guy who hasn't even played a game yet.

The guy broke a rule that hasn't been broken in 5 years and those guys were just coming off a national title along with another player with a big ego in Beasley. This isn't something that is a regular occurrence which makes it that much more stupid. Think about it. If 60 players attend the camp every year (just going by total draft picks per year), that means 299 other players were able to not break the rule since the last time it was broken. No he didn't do anything the was illegal, but if he doesn't have the discipline to follow a simple rule that over 300 other players of which many were a lot better than he was coming out of college, then he doesn't deserve a break. I'm bashing him because he's stupid, not because I hate the pick even though I do. He wants to act like he's above the rules, so it's our organizations job to make him get his immature act together or go get a different profession. What makes him so much better than every other rookie at that camp where he deserves to break the rules and get laid? It's basic discipline that if you don't have for a four day period, then you're just a self-absorbed @ss thinking your above the rules. He represents our organization now and he is getting us on the news for the wrong reasons already.

Lol Khan, calm down.

A 20 year old guy bringing a chick home. Isn't that the norm?

Media feed on this crap. I don't.

Cause there weren't other 20 year olds at the conference who wanted to do the same thing but had the discipline not to? I believe there were around 59 other players there that didn't seem to have a problem with the rule. He just comes off looking like an @ss when he can't keep it in his pants for 4 days (he got kicked out after the first night which means he wasn't even close to making it through the whole thing). If he is the only player who got kicked out for it, then it is hard to say it is the norm for the group he was in.

What world do you live in? The guy will be a cult hero attending the event next year. What embarrassment?

No, this is the reason we didn't like the pick. Because he was likely to do stupid things. You're upset because you come off looking like an ass for supporting the guy unconditionally.

How do I come off looking like an ass? I was fine with picking Shabazz at 14. I like high reward type guys. Excuse the hell outta me. And it's not supporting him unconditionally. In this case, I really don't understand why some of you are all beat up about what he did. It's not as terrible as you and khans are making it out to be.

I'm sure you both are probably big haters of Johnny Manziel too. Jesus Christ.

At a minimum you're a Shabazz apologist. You also seem to lack objectivity on anything remotely negative said about the team.
