Sprewell physically attacked Carlisimo.  Unless there is some evidence the
PJ hit first and Sprewell acted in self-defense, I don't know how you can
say this is a problem with PJ.  On the contrary, I think Sprewell is a
known malcontent, and if I were the Warriors, while I wouldn't give him
away (because they don't have to, they guy has gaudy stats), I'd be getting
rid of him.  I think he's a cancer, and I wouldn't take him on the Celtics.
