Eddie Griffin's star continues to rise

Hands up anyone who doesn't love stories about NBA players who get busted acting like clowns?

The latest exhibit is Eddie Griffin, whose antics are detailed here.

Quickly summarising (warning: some content rated PG):

- In March, Griffin prangs his car into a stationary car outside a Minneapolis grocery store at 2.30am.
- Griffin is not only drunk, but engaged in an act of "self-gratification" while watching porn on his in-car DVD system (!)
- I'll just recap that, by joining those two dot points together: a drunk Griffin prangs his car at 2.30am while watching porn and playing what Steve Rushin calls "laptop solitaire".

This happened some months ago, but it containts some new information which has surfaced because the guys who owned the car Griffin smashed into have just filed a civil suit.

The link is pure gold, not only for the details about the crash but the last four or so paragraphs which detail all of Griffin's offences since joining the NBA (shooting at a woman, spending time in jail, etc) before ending with a withering:

The following month [after spending time in jail], the Wolves signed Griffin to a three-year deal reportedly worth $8.1 million
