Its crazy how different stringer bell and avon were in season 3.

[Robbie3000]

Str8nger was the epitome of a smart dumb nigguh. Pook tried to put him on about that weak economics shyt when they had that meeting and stringer went off. Stringer was more stubborn than Avon, imo.

"Do they chair know we gone look like some punk ass bytches?"

Ironically, Marlo got everything Stringer ever wanted. Legitimacy, a clean slate, political connects, but Marlo still yearned for the streets.

i was shocked when i saw this for the first time

Remember his bank said kings are dead or in jail. Then marlo said but the point is that they wore it.

To have what Stringer aspired for, he needed to kill more. If you stay in too long, you're going down. Too much greed in the drug game and jealousy will come into effect...nobody wants an American Escobar type who has a iron clad grip. Stringer needed to kill everyone to be as comfortable as he wanted to be. That meeting when dudes were shaking their heads when he wouldn't fight for the corners was a exposing turning point. Just didn't fight hard enough. Can't fight 12 rounds in a 15 round fight.

remember when he went to jail stringer couldnt find a good connect so he had to get prop joes stash and give up some corners

Avon had just gotten locked up, no connect was going to even go directly through the Barksdale crew.

Having the corners didn't mean much once the Co-op was in place, Joe just needed permission to have people move weight on the west side. They were getting more money with Joe and the OP

Also everybody connect was fukked up after the Sabotka and them got popped. It wasnt that nikkaz wasn't fukking wit Avon it was just nobody had a connect. That's what eventually brought the co-op. Once String had to fukk wit Prop he was like "fukk it we all should eat off this good dope"

One of the connects thought Avon was going to start telling

Avon said it best.

"Not hard enough for this right here, and maybe - just maybe - not smart enough for them out there."


When Avon came home, damn @ the first 30 seconds of this clip.

Everything Avon worked for just gone. Avon left the wrong man in charge.
