true ***** moment

[Hey Yo]

"Other players who had been casually arriving, laughing and joking with each other, came to a sudden halt, their eyes bugging out. It took them only a few seconds to realize this was for real, a shootaround of a whole different nature. They all looked at each other and then they ran, the last man out locking the door behind him.

:oldlol:

Lol gilrbert is a *****. Thinking he was gona be hard till he realized he ****ed with a real dude. ****** ass dude

[Dro]

$1100, smh. But nobody should be surprised at how selfish these dudes are. They turn down millions of dollars in contracts for more millions, just look at Tristan Thompson. A role player acting like he's MJ...

[Replay32]

Well damn!!!

[DukeDelonte13]

still surprised the wiz didn't void gilbert's contract after that incident.

[outbreak]

Gilbert picked the wrong nut to mess with

[GoatBoy]

Can take em outta the hood, but can't take the hood outta them

Arenas got the last laugh

Can't imagine what it's like to be in Javaris's shoes right now...you were in the NBA, you had it all...and you blew it all away. Who tf joins a gang AFTER they get into the NBA, isn't that shit you do when you're broke? Imagine sitting in a cell, knowing that you will be there for 23 years....yet only 5 years ago you were playing in the NBA, living your dream. Sometimes its worse to have something and then to have it taken away than to never have it in the first place.


Who remembers Javaris being a pretty high rate for a rookie in 2k?

We definitely had high hopes for him but unfortunately scrubs got to go.

[HOoopCityJones]

Lesson of the day? Don't fucc wit real ni99as just because you spent a few weekends at a gun range.

Huge difference between shooting at paper targets with your buddies and doing PCP with a couple hardcore ni99as before you all go out and gun down some dude who looked at you funny at the club earlier that same night.

Ya'll be surprised how many bodies some of these cats have in the NFL and NBA alone. Hernandez and Crittenton weren't the first and certainly wont be the last.

I bet Gilbert shit wasn't even loaded. Definition of a wolfin ass ni99a.

Who remembers Javaris being a pretty high rate for a rookie in 2k?Your bolded line had me curious; thought you just meant he joined the Crips after he retired (or after he was released). You motivated me to do some digging and... he joined the gang while he was a member of the Lakers?! Is there a more detailed reason as to why this happened?

[Levity]

Arenas just posted a long winded retelling of the gun story on his instagram. started reading it, but got over it. Check it out if you want his version, though.

basically he said he wasnt the one playing cards, instead, he woke up to an argument between the some of the players
