Popo Probes NBA Baller's B-Day

Chicago cops want to know if NBA nomad Antoine Walker's b-day had anything to do with a fatal shooting yesterday morning.

A man was killed around the corner from the club where Walker had his birthday party Sunday night and the popo are investigating whether the shooting stemmed from a gang fight, possibly inside the club. The Chicago Sun-Times reports 'Toine's party was at club Excalibur.

Walker himself hasn't been connected to the shooting as yet.

2. Of course it did...it was the NBA's biggest gangster and his ex-teammate Paul Pierce who instigated the gang fight. :-)

3. Anyone surprised by this? Black sports stars, parties, drugs, violence. YAWN!

4. I'm a first-time poster to TMZ, but this called for something being said. His birthday party was at EXCALIBUR?! There's no bigger piece of crap suburbanite-filled faux-club in this city. Rhino is across the way. Same with Enclave. If you want to pop your collar and pay $300 to sit at a table with a bottle of Absolut, there are way better places in the city than Excalibur.
