1) Story is wrong - player never received the jewelry or had that cash.
Story is based on a lawsuit filed by a jeweler with a reputable name among pro athletes, so this seems unlikely IMO

I'm inclined to agree.
Also, notice this from the article?
quote:
Mike Bowers, the firm's attorney, said Thomas purchased a black diamond necklace, a diamond-encrusted watch, a pair of diamond studs, a diamond cross and a black diamond pendant in the shape of Jesus' head. According to the purchase order, signed by Thomas, the player agreed to pay a deposit of at least 25 percent of the purchase price and the remainder in 15 days.
He was supposed to pay the remainder in 15 days? That means the player in question is either retarded or expected to have the remaining 68K in hand by the middle of January 2010? Or this is something where the jeweler didn't really expect to get the money by then but was interested in floating the kid for some other reason?
