benching players is how you shave points. Letting other coaches know who you bench let's them load up their defensive schemes accordingly. According to the FBI they have an enormous amount of evidence. We'll see tomorrow I guess.

Tomorrow? You think they’ll be getting into the details so soon

We should have the city and state buy out his contract.

You are part of the city and state so you pay double!

 

[kjironman1]

They can put the buyout money on lottery tickets to pay for the arena upgrades.

They've had months to prepare their cases so, yeah, I'd expect them to be ready to go tomorrow. He's already had the arraignment which is not a trial really. The judge and both attorney's should lay out their cases starting right away I'd say. Sometimes they avoid a trial and plea bargain the case away on day one.

Then they bring out the broom and lift the rug.

Trial set for November 2nd

Not much else came out today.
Prosecuting attorneys did say they felt that plea deals looked promising and most likely would be in place before trial for 11 people involved in the case.
Sounds like Chauncey is cooperating but no statement was released by his lawyer or the Blazers at this time.

I agree. Time to move on.

Gonna be absolute media to watch how his defense handled this. I wonder if Chauncey and his defense can win their way to a legal championship.

He's going to push them to run a zone and it will be very porous.

Maybe Chauncey is going to rest his lawyers and tell his friends to bet guilty.

This whole investigation is a scheme. Chauncey has money riding on the outcome of his own trial.
