And if there are any, I don't believe this incident qualifies any of them. ADHD and simply having no parental guidance as a child constitutes having ADHD. PJ is just being a bully, like what Steve Smith had/has and needs to give it up...quickly. Having ADHD means you have the tendency to start things and don't complete them then move on to something else. <br /><br />Get your facts straight!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1757788746378060243.post-13964830055777146942014-07-07T16:25:33.361-04:002014-07-07T16:25:33.361-04:00PJ needs to be at church on Sunday and not playing...PJ needs to be at church on Sunday and not playing basketball.

What PJ needs to learn is that it's okay to be tough physically, but even more important, mentally if he's going to make it in the NBA. But it's not okay to lose your cool. If the word on the streets is that PJ has a temper and can be knocked off his game with a little taunt here and therem, that's all she wrote. Hopefully once he comes under the wings of the Hornets, he'll get some good advice on how to control and channel the energy. I hope he listens.He said, shenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1757788746378060243.post-9261329897506817672014-07-07T13:36:08.135-04:002014-07-07T13:36:08.135-04:00Just another NBA thug.Just another NBA thug.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1757788746378060243.post-54573505672158222802014-07-07T13:16:38.265-04:002014-07-07T13:16:38.265-04:00The Panthers didn't do anything to Steve Smith...The Panthers didn't do anything to Steve Smith and the Hornets won't do anything to PJ.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06784991119549813138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1757788746378060243.post-73225048204022785182014-07-07T13:14:08.855-04:002014-07-07T13:14:08.855-04:00Michael Jordan knocked Steve Kerr out cold at prac...Michael Jordan knocked Steve Kerr out cold at practice one time. It happens. Should he probably not been playing pickup ball at a local? Maybe. Although if you go to the Dowd Y here in Charlotte you see NBA players and Panther players playing pick up ball. Don't think this incident should be turned into such a big deal. Should it be a learning experience? Of course but no need to drop the thug label on a guy. Plus dude PJ was arguing with was 6-6 200lbs. Not like the dude is a little boy who couldn't take it. If this was an NBA game people would be applauding PJ for showing toughness and not taking crap from other players.Frasernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1757788746378060243.post-80851703422664926252014-07-07T12:45:00.935-04:002014-07-07T12:45:00.935-04:00^^^^ that would actually be funny. but i am the fi...^^^^ that would actually be funny. but i am the first person who posted and i can assure you i didn't post some of the stupidity that has been said.

Something ridiculous like that. <br /><br />As a Hornets fan, I'm not particularly worried about a player getting mixed up in a pickup game fight, as long as he doesn't feel the urge to pick a fight against an NBA player twice his size. That anger can be channeled into game intensity like Steve Smith has always had. <br /><br />Since PJ went to UNC, it gives me a chuckle to add yet another indiscretion to the ever-growing list of them from that school, because so many people think that either going there or rooting for their sports teams make them superior life forms to everyone else.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17089776297392081282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1757788746378060243.post-70678868116369824532014-07-07T10:30:24.593-04:002014-07-07T10:30:24.593-04:00If the 2 people who say they were there and saw th...If the 2 people who say they were there and saw the incident -- one saying P.J. did not throw the first punch and one saying the high school kid was not at fault at all -- would please contact me at sfowler@charlotteobserver.com I would like to talk to you both as we try to gather all the facts about this story....
