Cavs Guard Delonte West Arrested With 2 Loaded Handguns, Shotgun in Guitar Case (1 Viewer)

You know I can understand the handguns... I know plenty of people who have one and occasionally two handguns on their person but the shotgun in the guitar case is hard to accept. Maybe he was just transporting the shotgun from point A to point B and did not have another way of carrying it on a motorcycle.

Maybe he was tryin to save the world

Oh yeah - that's all reasonable.

"Look, I always carry two loaded pistols ... what if one don't go off when you shoot it? Who doesn't carry two pistols? And this shotgun? I'm just transporting it. It's hardly even in my possession, what with this guitar case and bungee cord. It would take me like 3 minutes to even get into it. I'm being persecuted here!"

It always bothers me that he's able to hit a guy with his guitar neck hard enough to knock him out without the neck breaking or the guitar evening going out of tune.

So Delonte hasn't shown up for training camp.

I hope this story doesn't go where it's looking like it's going.

I didn't realize the extent of his medical/mental situation.

"I'm happy to be here." [West said on media day]

"We've got to respect the legal process."

"I want to focus on this team and playing basketball."

Then came a quote that represented a departure from the norm, one that made it clear that this was no standard example of a knucklehead athlete acting like a fool.

"I'm back to taking my meds and I'm focused on basketball," West said. "I feel good. I feel great. I'm dealing with some issues a lot of you are familiar with [from] the past. I get highs and get lows. But all last year I've been consistent with being in a nice routine. I was in a routine that I kind of got out of this summer. I kind of got away from it. Just driving into Cleveland last night, I was getting a breath of fresh air."

Twenty-four hours later, West had once again slipped out of routine, skipping both practices on the Cavs' first day of training camp. The absence, which continued Wednesday, was unexcused, but not inexcusable.

Clearly, Delonte West needs help -- not scorn or mockery.

He needs empathy and compassion -- not name-calling or stereotyping.

Clearly, Delonte West needs to take his meds.
