Nate Robinson Arrested, TWill in Car

Aug 18, 2009 News, Terrence Williams
The New York Post is reporting that New York Knick Nate Robinson was busted earlier this afternoon for driving in the Bronx without a license. Newly drafted Net Terrence Williams was in the passenger seat for the incident. According to the Post report, both Nate and TWill were tweeting about the situation earlier this afternoon. Williams wrote, “being pulled over is so funnnnny now I got to go get him mannnnnnnnn.” The posts were later deleted, according to the report.
TWill and Nate appear to be good friends – often referencing each other on Twitter and appearing on a Sirius Radio program together before the NBA Draft. In one of his tweets earlier today, Williams said he was going to speak at Nate Robinson’s basketball camp.
Granted, TWill was not the person arrested today, but there is that old guilt by association label that could dog him. Robinson has had his license suspended five times already. Combine that with a recent article on Slam Online where the writer called TWill’s answers “flippant,” and you have to wonder if we’re dealing with another draft pick with immaturity issues (see: Sean Williams).

Well he did apologize for his interview and he was busy playing a video game while giving it, and hanging out with nate robinson is just generally a bad idea, too bad he’s good friends with him

I wouldn’t call him Sean Williams…Sean Williams has no passion, no desire to play the game. Terrence Williams loves the game, he will be fine.
The car thing, wrong place wrong time, my guess is that he didn’t even know Nate’s license was suspended. Joking about it afterwords…I don’t know, I am around his age, and if one of my boys were to get pulled over, I think I would joke about it too…it is just that a whole lot of people are watching him.
I did want to talk about the interview too, he apologized, said he was into his game and I believe him. Especially considering that I interviewed him, asked some similar questions and had him give me some great answers, I do attribute it to playing the game.
All that being said, he should be watching who he hangs with, and it should be noted that he is good friends with Gary Payton….

I should throw this in there that up until a week ago, I loved everything I read/saw about Terrence Williams. But there have been a few red flags recently. Call it some good old-fashioned pot stirring.
