Blatche arrested. 

Post#1 » by WesWesley » Thu Jun 5, 2008 7:32 am

First Melo and DerMarr Johnson get caught driving intoxicated, now Blatche gets arrested for careless driving.

Kinda saw this coming from Blatche anyways. Apparently he's been hosting parties down in Miami, and he's had numerous other driving tickets.

Kids got talent, but there is a reason he went in the second round.

People take driving for granted. Bad mistake, he needs to learn from it.

It's probably not a good idea to be driving that fast while on a suspended license.

Isn't this the 2nd time in a year?

Wasn't it Arenas who got into an altercation with Miami police just last year because of Blatche or w/ever?

It was Awvee Storey, not Blatche.

He was being carjacked, not doing the carjacking, when he was shot.

Yeah, he's pretty stupid.

Not so much the speeding thing. We all do that on a regular basis. More so the driving on a suspended license. That's just idiotic.

But to address something mentioned in this thread, he didn't do the carjacking. He was the one being carjacked, and then was shot. That was not his fault at all.

The prostitute thing....yeah....as I said, he's an idiot.

I don't think he's an idiot and I certainly don't blame him for being carjacked.

However, you are a young man, making good money with a kick ass job.... why would you keep making dumb choices that could throw that all away?

You have a suspended liscence.... have a friend drive you if you don't want to hire a driver. Thats just a stupid decision on his part and he doesn't seem to be learning from his mistakes.

I hope it doesn't cost him in the end.

^^^ No, he really is. From countless interviews to his off-court actions, it's very safe to say he's not intelligent at all.

He's going to be out of the league within the next 2-3 years unless he has a radical change in his lifestyle.

^ Somebody tried to steal his car and he didn't back down and let the guy, so he got shot. He was on the highway and was going 85 in a 70... Do you understand how many people do that? That's not living reckless at all. Reckless is when nba players drive 100 mph on highways, which happens a lot nowadays.

to me his only fault is soliciting the prostitute. Andray Blatche is not a bad guy at all. He doesn't appear to have a drug problem or anything, he's just having a good time as a young adult and has ran into some bad luck.

Wow your going way too far.You don't even know Blatche yet you can degrade him like that.



He makes some bad decisions off the court. Wish the Wizards were a real quality NBA team and could have real vets mentor him. He has the talent to be a good player in this league but he needs a real vet to show him the ropes.

yikes, this certainly looks bad for him because he has a history of problems with the law.
