Unfortunately some of us can't handle success. I've heard it says money doesn't change you, it only reveals who you really are. I have to assume some retired vets and current players he's cool with have pulled his collar but ego and fame has gotten in the way.

You'd think a guy with a woman and kid would be more responsible as well as family members he's probably helping out.

I have to say whomever is in his circle with him while doing this is not his true friend. Hood figgas who got real love keep you away from that stuff not enable it. His circle is bad his he is.

The way he was talking disrespectfully about the legends of the game was a sign he was full of himself. I hope he changes. Last thing I want to see is a black person who has the ability to earn millions throw it all away. We need all the generational wealthy families as we can.

    I don’t think this is an indictment on the Black community. The situation is a dumb ass nigga who is squander is only chance at a better life. It’s not that he can’t handle fame it’s that he a dumb ass nigga that simply can ball.

    I agree with but he's the stereotype of what people think we will be like once we get reparations.....like ice T said Amerikkka views us as "one big nigga".....this why we should be careful about how we present ourselves. I actually understand how Sarge felt from The Movie Soldiers Story.....they killed that c👀n that was tap dancing for them white folks.....that's accountability for your ass and if he keeps messing around throwing up G signs that Blue going to come knocking and if he doesn't pay the dues......it won't end well. 😔

    He is playing that stereotype very well.

    It took me a while to process this, but I realized today just how stupid this is. Guns are not toys. To even pull one out that recklessly says a lot about who he is. Imagine had that gun gone off and killed one of them, or a car passing by. We'd be having a completely different discussion right now. I've heard a couple people say he did nothing wrong because of gun laws, but the law does not protect people who mishandle guns and someone dies as a result. This is beyond stupid. He was one of the only players I enjoyed watching play, but I don't care if he plays another second of basketball. He ain't right.

    I don't either and I hope I didn't write as if it was. He's immature. Simply as that. I would suggest handling fame is not doing 'dumb ass nigga' shyt.

    I see brotha. The thing is the nigga was doing dumb nigga shit all the time it’s just now catching up to him. Cam and Mase had the perfect take on him I need to find it.
