    Sad, can’t find words for this.

    How did he get on the wrong side of law so quickly?

    I'm guessing he was some type of high and that led to him shooting at cops.

    He went to UCLA to play basketball for less than two years.

    His mom calls the police to "report that her son is acting erratically".
    Massive chaos happens.
    Mom has to receive the call that her son is dead.

    Just sad for the mom.

    Wow. I remember him in college and thinking he was pretty good. I liked his game.

    Used to grab him on 2k and try to develop him.

    Not sure what led to this, but RIP for now.

    He was playing in Khimki one of the best and richest teams in Russia. It wasn't like he was jobless and had to resort to crime and drugs.

    He made about 2 million in the NBA and was making more than a million a year playing overseas, it just goes to show you that money doesn't fix your problems. This guy has been a 1%er for more than half a decade and it doesn't seem to have done anything positive.

    He obviously had some ability?? I guess we should wait to see what the facts are as they come out.

    This is a trip.

    Met him a few times while he was playing at Sylmar High in Los Angeles. Everybody knew he was going to the league, but had a relaxed demeanor and was friendly with everybody.

    Unfortunate his life seemingly didn’t go the way it could have.

    Allen Iverson has a Georgetown Education. Take that for data. To put it in Iverson's own words "DAWG>>>SHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET Y"ALL CAN TAKE THAT SHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET FOR SHEEEEEEEEEEET YO"

    Are you assuming that AI is not smart?
