Arenas gun inquiry
Arenas gun inquiry
Arenas gun inquiry ?a scary thing for the NBA?

Buzz up! 230 PrintWASHINGTON (AP)?Amid conflicting reports on what happened in the Washington Wizards locker room, the matter clearly goes beyond the team?s original statement about Gilbert Arenas(notes) storing unloaded guns in his locker.
What began with the NBA looking into a possible violation of its own rules has turned into an investigation involving the U.S. Attorney?s Office and District of Columbia police. The implications are serious, with the legal system, the league and the Wizards in line to take possible action if the allegations prove true.
?We?re all watching this very closely to see how the story develops right now,? Miami Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said Saturday. ?It?s so early in the story and there?s so much speculation, it?s hard to figure out what?s fact and what?s fiction, but it is a scary thing for the NBA and we all want to see what happens.?
AP - Jan 1, 3:50 pm EST 1 of 2 NBA Gallery The Wizards said on Christmas Eve that Arenas stored unloaded firearms in a locked container in his locker, with no ammunition. Arenas said he wanted them out of the house after the birth of his latest child.
An official within the league told The Associated Press on Saturday that he was briefed before Dec. 24 by officials reviewing the incident. He said the review included a dispute over card-playing, gambling debts and a heated discussion between Arenas and another player. He said the review did not refer to Arenas and Javaris Crittenton(notes) drawing guns on each other?as the New York Post has reported?although he said that doesn?t preclude that it might have happened.
The official spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because he is not an authorized spokesman for the team or the league.
The nation?s capital has some of the strictest gun laws in the nation, and the NBA?s collective bargaining agreement prohibits players from possessing firearms at league facilities or when traveling on any league business. Commissioner David Stern has said players should leave their guns at home and could levy substantial fines or suspensions, pending the outcome of the investigation.
Arenas has been suspended once before because of a gun-related matter. He sat out Washington?s season opener in 2004 because he failed to maintain proper registration of a handgun while living in California in 2003 and playing for the Golden State Warriors.
Depending on the severity of the findings, the Wizards could invoke the morals clause found in standard NBA player contracts and attempt to void the remainder of the six-year, $111 million deal Arenas signed in the summer of 2008.
Such an option might be tempting because the Wizards have yet to get much of a return on the investment. Arenas missed all but two games last season as he recuperated from knee operations, and this season he has struggled to adjust to new coach Flip Saunders? offense.
Despite a healthy core of players and a high-priced roster, the Wizards were 10-20 entering Saturday night?s game against the San Antonio Spurs.
This year, Saunders made Arenas a team captain, but the point guard has remained as flippant and unpredictable as ever. He made light of his latest plight on Twitter, posting that he was being portrayed as ?the new John Wayne? and that he?s a ?goof ball? who doesn?t do ?serious things.?
Former Wizards owner Abe Pollin, who changed the team?s name from Bullets because of the violent connotation, had little tolerance for player misbehavior. Pollin died last month, and the team is in ownership limbo while part-owner Ted Leonsis goes through the process of assuming control.
Regardless of the outcome, Spoelstra expects the league to further emphasize player behavior.
?Everything across the league will be heightened, which it should be,? Spoelstra said. ?But again, I think everybody wants to see what the whole story is, and every team now certainly will be more aware, more educated and more proactive for everybody?s safety.?

Perfect chance to cut that 111 million. I am sure they will take that and get their cash back.
how stupid can these guys be. Over a card game:scared
Jack,
It's your website, ban the Angry fuck whenever you want. Personally, this is supposed to be funny or whatever and he acts like a bitch so fuck him.
I haven't personally seen Raymond say anything other than he is a republican and hates Obama but its a capping site so who cares what anybody's political fronts are even if misguided.
Hope this helps,
FDC
