Delonte Arrested? (Windy article p. 31)

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Re: Delonte Arrested?

Massive facepalm.

My heart sunk when I saw this thread title.

...but honestly, if I had to guess which player on the team owned three firearms, I'd probably say Delonte ...
 
Re: Delonte Arrested?

I'm sure there will be a lot of people within the organization or connected to it in some way that are not surprised that something like this happened and are kicking themselves that they couldn't get him involved in a trade before it did go down.
 
Re: Delonte Arrested?

Unsafe lane change? That sounds like some BS.

If you have guns and you are moving them then they will likely be on your person if you are stopped. If you have 3 guns on you then you are probably taking them somewhere. If they wind up being properly registered then it wont be a real big deal.

Alan Henderson left a gun in his carry on luggage before he signed with the Cavaliers and besides paying a fine and getting taken into custody at the time it wasnt a big deal.

Let the facts come out since guns are still legal in this country.

When I started reading the article and saw why he got stopped I was outraged. Until I saw that he was riding a motorcycle. People really do ride like idiots on those things. I've seen people whiz between two lanes of stand still traffic going 80, using the shoulder, slaloming in and out of traffic, etc. There are people that ride responsibly, but more often than not people ride high performance motorcycles irresponsibly.

Secondly, If I'm choosing a vehicle to transport three weapons it sure as hell ain't that one.

If they are registered and were locked and empty then you will have a point MYoung. But its still a really boneheaded move IMO without any other details necessary.
 
Re: Delonte Arrested?

he will probably just pay some fines, do some community service and not miss a game.

If it were any one of us we would go to jail for years



not complaining either. I hate guns
 
Re: Delonte Arrested?

Based on the info so far, I'm betting it ends up not being a big deal. Few game suspension, community service, etc.
 
Re: Delonte Arrested?

I heard he was looking for Agent Zero.

Those two sentences are quite dumb.

If they were registered he shouldnt have much an issue. Any plea on charges will get somekind of suspension per NBA rules.

Stephen Jackson was on probation and was shooting his gun during a scuffle and didnt go to jail so unless West's guns werent registered and/or the gun laws where he was are as Draconian as NYs I dont see much coming out of this.
 
Re: Delonte Arrested?

According to the policy Gunther posted, I'd be surprised if the league COULD do anything about it. Camp hasn't started, don't think he was taking those guns to a charitable event unless the NRA is now considered a charity, and he didn't discharge them.

Granted, with the Plaxico situation, the league may want to follow in the NFL's steps and crack down some more and they may want to make an example of D-West, but I just don't see that happening.
 
Re: Delonte Arrested?

If anything this incident gives Delonte a nice sounding nickname ... "Terminator West" :D
 
Re: Delonte Arrested?

Can I borrow someone's dog so I can KICK THE SHIT OUT OF IT RIGHT NOW?
