Rookie Hazing During Training Camp
Although the footage is a little old, kind of amazing to see the NBA putting out this video when most kids get kicked out of school these days for hazing. It’s definitely worse than this though, as I saw Darren Collison caring a crazy looking kids backpack the other night at the Garden. What’s the worst story you’ve ever heard from the League?

I heard back in the late 90s, the Portland Trailblazers shot one of their rookies and made them crawl to the hospital. Then they shot the doctor who tried to stitch him up and made the player stitch his own self.

To Dime: Since you guys have the all access passes and actually get to INTERVIEWS the PLAYERS in the NBA, wouldn’t it make more sense that you give the readers actual stories about Rookie Hazing?
~just a suggestion~
