good, somebody this dumb doesn't deserve chance after chance after chance

he obviously doesn't care so he's probably better off dead, that way he won't kill some innocent driver on the road

I remember reports of him showing up to Knick practice reeking of mouthwash (he'd down that shit to get himself drunk on the low, instead of burning himself with alcohol). LOL.

^^That or he was just using the mouthwash to cover whatever he was drinking. Either way, why in the flying fuck would you want to get drunk and then go to bball practice? That would fucking suck.

Well, he supposedly admitted to actually drinking the mouthwash instead of alcohol. LOL.
