Saw where Marcus Bullard has arrest warrant for drive-by shooting

Some folks can't give up the thug life

Wonder how he makes bail, since making money by throwing a game is not an option?

It really is a bit of a surprise that he's still alive.

He's about as good a shot with a firearm as he was in the final four.

It's because of things like this, that I have no doubt in my mind that he threw that game.

I don't give a damn what any of the other players on the team said about how badly he wanted to win.

 

[patdog]

I wouldn't put it past him, but I honestly don't think he threw that game. Yeah, he had 9 turnovers. But he was playing out of position at PG against a tough and very unorthodox defense. And it's not like he was the only one turning the ball over that day. He shot the ball pretty well and had 5 rebounds and 8 assists.

I've heard through the grapevine from other members of the team that they think he got a mild concussion trying to run through a ball screen early in the game. Said he barely remembered any of the game and was kindof in a daze from that point forward.

With that guy, who knows what to believe though...

I heard at least one of his team mates thought the figure he took from bookies was $240,000. That would buy a lot of pistols, maybe even some shooting lessons so he wouldn't have to hit somebody with one of them.

-240,000 :: If true Bullard would have blown thru that cash so fast the FBI

This claim has no credibility. Given the knuckleheadedness of Bullard, he would have blown through $240k so fast the FBI would have camped out in Starkville like Rich Johanningmier.

Or he just had a bad game against a good team.

This makes the most sense. If you remember that game, Bullard came out hot and hit a couple of threes in the first few minutes. He did like to lower his head and barrel through screens. That is a tough task against a John Wallace or Otis Hill. Also, he wasn't exactly a natural ball handler and that Syracuse zone was really tough. He was the classic two converted to one that we seem to have so often (Zimmerman, Bowers, Gordon, etc.)
