If thats not a NBA’s player mischievous smile I don’t know what is.
Two years ago I awoke to a top story on the local news. Rodney White was arrested in DC (PS in my google research for White, I came across an article saying he has a place in Bethesda? Bethesda? Is this guy really from Detroit?) for shooting off a gun in the air while in a Landrover, the reporters who were covering the story obviously didn’t know who Rodney White was.. but they knew he was an “NBA Star”, if this was a ABA dude the police probably wouldn’t even waste paper on him to do a police report and the TV stations wouldn’t waste their film, there are local crackheads who are more important/popular. The general public quickly realized his career avg is about 5 points per game and quickly forgot about the matter.

I hope Lonny keeps his guns and hugs separate, the combiniation might result in some cute violence.
Fast forward to this morning, Last night Lonny Baxter was arrested near Dubya’s pad you guessed it.. popping off a gun in air. The local news footage of him being cuffed is pretty nice too as he is pretty much falling out of his loosely tied Air Dunks. Now Lonny is a local guy who grew up in Silver Spring, MD, went to UMD, even played for the Wizards so he was having a nice local night out. But for Lonny to shoot of a gun? I always thought he was a softie that probably enjoyed a nice big hug, I guess not. Oh and since he will be playing for Montepaschi Siena which might’ve forced me to get a gun but not point it to the moon, but rather my temple (Do they give Pizza bonuses to players over there??). This year he can’t be considered a NBA anything per say but you know this gun charge has earned him enough cred to be right back in the league, dressed nicely sitting on the sideline.
So now I ask who is going to be next to pop off a gun in DC? Telfair? Jasikevicius? My Money is on Alan Henderson.
P.S. Another angle of what happened with Lonny is maybe Dubya didn’t want to party up agian with him and Lonny was in a downer mood as a result?
