NBA HOOPSTER IN CLUB-SLASH RAP
By PERRY CHIARAMONTE and ERIC LENKOWITZ
August 28, 2007 -- Queens-born Houston Rockets guard Rafer Alston - a streetball legend known on playgrounds as "Skip 2 My Lou" - was arrested early yesterday on charges he slashed a man in a Manhattan nightclub.
It's his second assault rap in three weeks. Alston, 31, suffered his latest legal setback at Club Stereo on West 29th Street at 3 a.m.
The trouble began when a member of Alston's entourage got into an argument with a 41-year-old man.
The fight escalated into a brawl, and at one point Alston slashed the man, sources said.
Alston - who had starring roles with the North American street basketball tour, the And 1 Mix Tape Tour, and the ESPN show "Street Ball" - is already in hot water in Houston.

He was arrested Aug. 5 for allegedly shaking a parking attendant and spitting in his face during a drunken rage after his car was towed.
Alston has said the charges in that case were blown out of proportion by "individuals who stand to profit."
Alston, a Cardozo HS graduate, scored 13.3 points per game for Houston in 82 contests. He was released without bail at his arraignment last night.
His lawyer, Alberto Ebanks, said the man allegedly slashed told a story "virtually impossible" to believe and "this case is motivated by money."
He said two bouncers are among several witnesses ready to testify to his client's innocence.

实际上没被逮捕，也没有保释。

店老板为Alston作证  Rafer Alston上星期在纽约一家夜总会惹下的麻烦事向着有利于他的方向进展了，这家夜总会的老板之一Barry Mullineaux告诉Fox 26电视台说，监控录像显示Alston只是跟人有些口头小冲突，酒吧里没发生任何砍人事件。酒吧附近的巡逻警官也没有发现有任何人被砍伤。当晚Alston被拘捕后不需取保即被释放了，他的律师则一开始就说这件事只是敲诈。目前看起来的确如此。
