Lame. I still don't like Ruben - he's established himself as a guy who can't help but screw up off the court. That said, he was very good for us this season, and he needs to concentrate on getting his business handled off the court so he can return to help the Bucks next year.
Geez, I didnt even know that about him, I always thought he was a pretty decent guy, guess my perception of him has changed now. What a dog.

<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Milwaukee Bucks forward Ruben Patterson has surrendered to police in Hamilton County, Ohio, and was placed on the state's sex offender registry. A misdemeanor warrant was issued earlier this week after he failed to register as a convicted sex offender when he moved into a new house in the Cincinnati suburb of Indian Hill. Patterson, who surrendered late Tuesday, was ordered to make a future court appearance. He faces a misdemeanor complaint that carries a possible six-month jail term. The 31-year-old Patterson, who played last season with the Bucks and currently is a National Basketball Association free agent, was registered as a convicted sex offender in Wisconsin after joining the team in October 2006. Ohio law enforcement officials became aware of Patterson's failure to register in that state after a complaint about a party at his house on May 5, authorities said. A certified letter was sent to Patterson's house on May 8, according to published reports, and when he did not respond within the required five days, a warrant was issued for his arrest. In November of last year, Patterson purchased a $3.4 million house in Hamilton County but failed to register his new address with the sheriff's department.</div> Source: JS Online

And furthermore, what was the nature of the offense?</div> <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post"> Patterson is required to register under Ohio law, due to a sentencing in May 2001 in the state of Washington. In that case, Patterson entered a modified guilty plea to third-degree attempted rape for forcing his children's 24-year-old nanny to perform a sex act on him. </div> So yeah, pretty serious.
