He's officially a member of the Blazers now.

Still the best player they have, sucks for him, I like how he plays and believe he will be an All-Star this year.

i'm a little upset to hear these news. basketball-wise, this guy has got everything going well for him: he's having a break out type of season, a probable all star/MIP winner, he's healthy, and the new owner even said that he's the team's franchise player & that the team will be built around him.

i don't know what's going in this guy's noodle, but unneccessary behavior like this will just stand in the way of a highly successful career in the nba

i don't know want to get off in a rant here- i just want to mention that it really irritates me when players such randolph are given the opportunity be successful and they waste it

It's a DUI, it's not like he raped some hotel bimbo.

He will lose his licence for a few months and it's done, give him a break.

It's not the end of his career or something, these guys make millions of dollars, have a good life and face many pressures, I expect they will crack once or twice in their lives, he's only 22-years-old and he got caught, unlike everyone else who has some drinks with friends and drive home or to a hotel. Maybe he could have killed someone, yes I understand all that, but many, many people drink and drive, doesn't make it right, but it does make it pretty common.

If the league takes any action, it will be 3 games, fair enough, end of the story.

It was marijuana, Randolph was not drunk.
