Shrug. Possession of a firearm isn't a big deal IMO...as long as he didn't use it in a threatening manner, which he didn't.

In fact, if that New York Post bulls**t story about him pointing the gun at his teammate didn't come out, Arenas would have gotten a two game suspension slap on the wrist and that's it.

The New York Post screwed over Arenas.

Didn't he pull it out on Javaris?

Arenas had unloaded weapons.

Delonte West had loaded guns, and he's still playing.

Stephen Jackson got a 7 games suspension for FIRING his guns in the air.

Stern is suspending Arenas because he made fun of the incident with the pre-game pose

Shrug. Threatening someone with a deadly weapon isn't a big deal IMO...as long as he didn't kill a baby.

The picture says it all.

Whatever anyone's opinion is, to the league, this is a huge deal. And to Arenas, apparently it's a funny joke.

Sorry, that's just dumb.

Actually no. That story was complete BS.

Javaris joked that he would shoot Arenas for not paying his debt. Arenas brought four guns and placed them on a chair and mocked Javaris, telling him to pick one.

That's all that happened.

Interesting. I never knew it was a joke. I thought Javaris had owed Arenas money for a game of cards he had lost and Gilbert told Javaris to choose which one he would shoot him with.
