Reports: Guns drawn in argument
ESPN.com news services
NEW YORK -- Washington Wizards teammates Gilbert Arenas and Javaris Crittenton drew guns on each other during a Christmas Eve locker room argument over a gambling debt, according to The New York Post.

Last week, the Wizards and Arenas acknowledged that Arenas had stored unloaded firearms in a container in his locker, and the NBA said it was looking into the situation.

It was during that investigation that a confrontation between Arenas and Crittenton was revealed, according to a Yahoo! Sports report.

The dispute stemmed from an unspecified disagreement, sources told Yahoo! Sports.

Citing an anonymous source, the Post reported in Friday's edition, however, that the standoff was sparked when Crittenton became angry at Arenas for refusing to make good on a gambling debt.

That prompted Arenas to draw on Crittenton, who then also grabbed for a gun, league security sources told the Post.

2. Lovely.
Now I'm glad Abe Pollin isn't around to see this. Gilbert Arenas is a scumbag. And for such a so called great player and leader he's doing a fine job ..:sarcasm:

4. They drew on each other at work?
Damn. I'd get fired for that for sure. Probably go to jail, too.

Wonder what'll happen to these guys?

9. About time!
The Association had been falling behind the NFL and even (gasp!) college sports in terms of good, old-fashioned criminal behavior.
