Chapter 200 - Nick Young

I had just finished my drink and just when I was about to head out a group of guys in a mask came by as everybody started to scatter. I wasn't intimidated as I also had my weapon on me. 

Gilbert Arenas immediately got up as he said" are you really going to run up on us in our Hood, I will eventually find out who you are and come for you".

One of the guys got pissed and pistol whipped Gilbert on his head causing Gilbert to start leaking, everybody there was shocked. Nobody had ever run up on them like that before. 

The leader of the group laughed as he said" you in the NBA and you coming to the hood, that's like you're asking us to rob you point blank. You guys run up, drop all your jewelry and any kind of cash you got on you right now!" 

He yelled out loud, Gilbert was on the ground leaking and was playing stubborn as he wasn't trying to give away all his jewelry that he had on him.

As for me I didn't have anything on me so I didn't really care. The leader looked at me and pointed his gun at me. I immediately tensed up and was ready to strike. 

He saw something strange about me and fear immediately took over his heart he wondered why he felt this way but he quickly ignored it as he said "yo hurry up give me all your money and jewelry" 

"I said if you point that gun at me then you gotta be ready to shoot it too".

The leader laughed and said"oh you must be that number one rookie huh I hope you bring some chips to this wack team of ours". 

I shook my head and said" how can I bring any chips if you're over here robbing the team members that you want to win it, does that make any sense to you".

He got angry and unleashed the safety on his gun as if he was ready to shoot, now I was serious as I used my time freeze quickly disarmed him and took out my own gun and pointed it at his head when the time resumed back again everybody there was shocked.

"Hey buddy it looks like the tables have turned, you robbed the wrong person today, your gun is gone and I don't think your boys want to see you get shot up. Everybody drop your weapons right now!" 

All of them looked at each other and hesitated.

The leader quickly shouted" y'all better drop your guns right now otherwise I might have to kill you on myself".

"You guys just turn around and go back home", I suggested to them. 

"If you don't want any more problems go home and I'm sure you're from around here too so anybody here can recognize you if I unmask you right now". 

Gilbert looked at me with anger as he said "why didn't you unveil them so that we can get our revenge, nobody robs us in our Hood!". 

I shook my head and said" this is not my problem, this is your hood problem I'm not part of your hood so you guys can go deal with them but for now I'm out I don't ever want to have to deal with you again".

Gilbert was a little shocked when I said that but he didn't say anything much as he watched me walk away. 

Gilbert looked at his guys and said "man, I really like this kid he practically just saved our lives I really hope he comes through for this team man because we need help".

All the guys around there agreed as they also packed up their stuff and left. When I got home I was exhausted mentally on top of that I was hungry from dealing with all the BS today. 

The summer league was coming up so I needed to prepare myself. I got myself a trainer that I was meeting up with daily. We worked on several things which were every part of my body including the ankles.

I didn't need to work on my shots since it was automatic so that saved us a lot of time to work on other things such as dribble moves. I had even hired the professor from and1 to show me a couple of and1 moves that I can use in order to be more versatile while playing basketball.

.....

The summer league had finally arrived, we all had to head out to Las Vegas in order to get some practice in with our teammates before the start of the summer league.

As soon as I got to the place Nick Young was already trying to trouble me.

"Hey rookie I heard a lot about you from Captain but you're still going to be my bitch during this summer league".

I couldn't believe he said that as I said "I'll be your bitch if you can beat me in a one-on-one game to five points. But if you lose you have to do as I say".

Everybody that was around us started chuckling like little girls. I shook my head and said if you are a coward you won't accept, then again you're the one who approached me I'm just trying to make it a little bit more interesting".

At this point Nick was furious as he said "okay I agree to your conditions little rookie let's hit that gym right now to see if you got what it takes to make me a bitch".

McGee saw the whole thing and shook his head as he knew that even the captain had lost to me, he could only sign as he thought Nick Young was in trouble but couldn't do much about it since he had already dug his grave.
