    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">A cousin of former Chicago Bulls player Scottie Pippen was charged with marijuana possession Tuesday after the ex-NBA player was stopped for speeding on a central Arkansas interstate.

    Billy C. Pippen, 56, of Hamburg, admitted he owned marijuana found in Scottie Pippen's truck, state police said. Billy Pippen was charged with a misdemeanor count of possession of marijuana. Scottie Pippen was cited for speeding.

    "A lead foot. That's all," state police spokesman Bill Sadler said.

    A trooper stopped Scottie Pippen's truck after a radar gun showed he was speeding on Interstate 530 near White Hall, about 30 miles south of Little Rock, police said. While interviewing the ex-basketball player, the trooper smelled marijuana smoke.

    According to a police report, Scottie Pippen, when asked about contraband, told Trooper Jeff Preston there was marijuana in the center console of the truck cab but that it wasn't his. </div>

    Well, that sort of hurts his chances of returning to the NBA

    He was speeding, that's it. He didn't admit to using or owning the marijuana.

    i doubt this hurts his chances of returning, if there ever was a chane to begin with that is. its not like he insanely broke the law or argued/lied to the cops, he seemed to have handled it well.

    speeding on a highway, smelling of pot...so he's slid seamlessly back into society then.
