47. ESPN Classic - Sprewell's Image Remains In A Chokehold Regardless of what he accomplishes in basketball, latrell sprewell will live in infamy as the player who attacked and threatened to kill his coach. http://espn.go.com/classic/biography/s/Sprewell_Latrell.html

MSN Home My MSN Hotmail Search ... Money document.write(''); ESPN Network: ESPN.com NBA.com NHL.com WNBA.com ... ESPNdeportes ALSO SEE The 'Choke' Artist Sprewell's Image Remains in a Chokehold By Mike Puma Special to ESPN.com "There was just a buildup of anger and frustration and having it all bottled up and not being able to express myself. At that point, it just came to a head," says Latrell Sprewell on ESPN Classic's SportsCentury series. Regardless of what he accomplishes in basketball, Latrell Sprewell will live in infamy as the player who attacked and threatened to kill his coach. During a Golden State Warriors practice in 1997, Sprewell snapped, choking P.J. Carlesimo before returning about 20 minutes later to continue the assault. NBA Commissioner David Stern suspended Sprewell for 82 games before an arbitrator reduced the sentence to 68 games, costing Sprewell $6.4 million and his shoe deal with Converse. Sprewell deemed the punishment too harsh. "I wasn't choking P.J. that hard," Sprewell told 60 Minutes. "I mean, he could breathe." Stern called Sprewell a symbol of the "widening gulf" between professional athletes and the fans. Sprewell claimed his being an African-American tainted the public's view of the attack on his coach. "I want people to know I'm not a bad guy," he said. "I never said I shouldn't be punished for what I did. We just said the punishment was excessive."

49. The Black Commentator - Kobe Bryant, Marv Albert&Latrell Sprewell - Issue 60 When latrell sprewell, an AfricanAmerican professional basketball player, put his hands around the throat of his coach PJ Carlesimo, he was given the harshest http://www.blackcommentator.com/60/60_guest_kobe.html

Kobe Bryant, like OJ did, stands at the crossroads of two American myths: Kobe is a Black man accused of raping a White woman and a beloved sports-figure. What happens when America's dream meets America's nightmare? When God Bless America meets Birth of a Nation? What does race have to do with it? The media would have us believe - nothing. When Latrell Sprewell, an African-American professional basketball player, put his hands around the throat of his coach P.J. Carlesimo, he was given the harshest sentence in the history of the NBA. Although an arbitrator reduced his suspension from one year to seven months, Sprewell's fine of 6.4 million dollars was the largest in the history of professional sports. The public and media reaction was swift and almost uniformly condemnatory. As Peter H. King wrote in the Los Angeles Times, "One might think he had stabbed his wife to death." Sprewell became a symbol first for the perceived "thug" mentality of the NBA (which term was somehow only applied to Black players), then for "violent Black male athletes" and by extension for all Black violence. Lurid headlines read: "Open Season: Patients Now Running the NBA Asylum", "Sprewell Story an Analogy for World Gone Mad", "Gang Chic as a Marketing Tool".

Now Playing The Agronomist Bon Voyage Breakin' All The Rules Bulgarian Lovers ... All Listings Feature The Real Spree The pride and intensity that made knicks star Latrell Sprewell great also caused him to lose control and attack his coach. Can he change? Should he? By Eric Konigsberg L ast July, during the year he was banished from the National Basketball Association, Latrell Sprewell opened Sprewell Racing, a store selling high-performance tires and wheels, on San Gabriel Boulevard outside Pasadena. "When I was sitting out, I just said it'd be great to own something, to run something for myself," he says. "I can do what I want." Sprewell has been nuts about cars since he was a young boy and learned to work on them in his grandfather's body shop in Milwaukee. He bought his first car, a 1992 Camaro Z-28, just after he was taken by the Golden State Warriors in the '92 draft. Now he owns . . . a lot of them. How many, exactly? "I would say over ten," Sprewell says. They include a sport Chevy Tahoe, a Range Rover, a Suburban, a Lamborghini Diablo, and a Mercedes SL600. In the middle of February, about three weeks after he was acquired by the New York Knicks, Sprewell called Cecil Hsu, who runs Sprewell Racing, and told him, "I got nothing to drive in New York. Bring me the Mercedes." And so Cecil and two of his drivers picked the car up at Sprewell's primary residence in Milwaukee and loaded it into a trailer, and 57 hours later they were on the East Coast.

home articles links rodman hair swap ... LinkExchange Member W i l l i e B r o w n S t i c k s u p f o r L a t r e l l S p r e w e l l A few years ago, Latrell Sprewell, was suspended from the NBA for a full year and his contract with the Warriors was torn up. This followed a bizarre set of incidents where Sprewell reportedly choked his head coach, P.J. Carlisimo, had to be physically removed, and then, after showering, returned to fight through a crowd in order to punch the coach. According to the San Francisco Chronicle, San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown has been quoted as saying, "His boss may have needed choking. It may have been justified. Someone should have asked the question, `What prompted that?' " And I think Slick Willie is right. In fact, I am thinking that my boss needs choking too. Lord knows he has provoked me on more than one occassion. And since the esteemed mayor, complete with law degree has in as much told me that I should take this into my own hands (no pun intended,) I think I should. And of course, if I did choke my boss, he wouldn't sue me or file assault charges against me. He would just say, "Oh, this was just a department problem. We'll handle it here."

PHIL PONCE: Yesterday an arbitrator reduced the punishment of pro basketball star Latrell Sprewell for physically attacking his coach last December. It was then during a team practice that Sprewell reportedly grabbed head coach P. J. Carlisimo by the throat and choked him for several seconds and later punched him. The team immediately suspended Sprewell and a few days later announced it was firing him by canceling his four-year, $32 million contract. The NBA then added a one-year suspension from playing in the league. The case received national attention. Most NBA players are African-American and most people in management are white, and for some the incident raised the issue of race. Sprewell apologized for the incident and appealed the punishment. LATRELL SPREWELL: (December 1997) I know that this conduct is not appropriate in society or in professional sports.

KWAME HOLMAN: Yesterday the National Basketball Association suspended Latrell Sprewell from the league for a year for attacking his coach on Monday. It is the longest suspension ever handed out by the NBA. A day earlier, the Golden State Warriors terminated the $32 million contract of the three-time All-Star Guard and leading scorer on the team. During a practice on Monday Sprewell had a verbal confrontation with warriors Coach P. J. Carlesimo and afterward attacked him twice over a period of 20 minutes and threatened to kill him. In a statement announcing Sprewell’s suspension, NBA Commissioner David Stern described the incident this way. "First, he choked him until forcibly pulled away. Then after leaving practice, Mr. Sprewell returned and fought his way through others in order to commit a second and this time clearly premeditated assault. A sports league does not have to accept or condone behavior that would not be tolerated in any other segment of society." Before the league acted, the 27-year-old Sprewell spoke to a San Francisco area television station.
