J-Rich was arrested today for getting into a fight with an ex-girlfriend. <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">SAGINAW TOWNSHIP, Mich. (AP) -- Golden State Warriors forward Jason Richardson was arrested following what police said was a fight with his ex-girlfriend at her home. The former Michigan State star was arrested Tuesday night after police received a call from the woman, Saginaw Township Police Chief Stephen Renico said. Richardson was arraigned Wednesday and free on $5,000 bond. Richardson was gone when police arrived, but ``from what the officers saw, we had sufficient evidence at the scene'' to arrest him, Renico said. He faces a maximum penalty of 93 days in jail, a $500 fine, or both, if convicted of the misdemeanor domestic violence charge. No other details, including a trial date, were immediately available. ``At this time, we have no comment,'' Warriors spokesman Raymond Ridder said. ``We have not spoken to Jason and have not received all of the facts.'' Richardson had been scheduled to appear Wednesday at a United Way of Saginaw County function, The Saginaw News reported. He had agreed to be a spokesman for a youth program. Gerald Little, president of the United Way of Saginaw County, said his group is trying to find out what happened. Richardson averaged 15.6 points and 4.6 rebounds this season. He turned pro two years ago following two seasons at Michigan State.</div>
His attitude has always been a concern. He seems pre-occupied with off the court issues half the time, as he doesn't show up and play hard every game. Looks like he has baggage/issues. I wouldn't want him on my team. He and Arenas together are two clowns, and you could see that at the rookie-sophomore game. Too bad for the Warriors.
The guy has the potenial to be an allstar as early as next season...lets hope he doesn't get the name jason kidd got by hitting his girlfriend/wife.

jason kidd didn't get a name for hitting his wife...AI is gettin more trouble than both Kidd and J-Rich....and he didn't even hit his wife
True...AI just got into some school fights back in the day....and what else (I know something about summer troubles...but I don't remember it clearly)...

as good as kidd gets people will never stop talking about it and calling him a wife beater and why not. u shouldnt be able to just escape that stuff and pretend it didnt happen
It was even questionable that he had a gun. First the guy said he did, then he said he didn't even know it was a gun. ESPN is the one that made it out like someone got killed so the details of everything that ESPN said (which were not true) are still engraved in everyone's head.
b/s...it was prolly a cell phone or somethin and they tried to turn it in to a murder...Ii hope J-Rich get the same treatment AI got...but he don't have the "thug" look like AI so he prolly won't
