Joakim talks about being arrested this summer in Gainesville, his offseason workout plans, his childhood and his family. He also manages to say "at the same time" a lot.

Sounds like the problem
was getting caught, not the deed.

Hahaha
“It’s not like I was walking down the middle of the street with a blunt in my hand and a 40 out and I was screaming and talking loud.”
Well said Joakim, well said.
Asked what kind of player he expects to be in the next five years, he said: "Not a star, but like, a superstar. Something around, like, Chris Paul, Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce, something like that."

Must be nice to crash at your dad's pad overlooking Central Park
Wow, that was like an actual….interview, with real answers! From an athlete! Could KC Johnson get this much out of Joakim in a whole season?
I was a multiple time all star throughout my little league career. Won 5 championships- 4 in a row- thats more in a row than MJ… (kenwo4life@aol.com)

Is that even a question? Heh.
When I watch NBA games I often call the fouls before the referees do. Sometimes it’s a gift. Most of the time it's troublesome. - NBA Observer

While both are sober? No.

Do I get my one told-you-so for the year?
JOAKIM: Yeah, a little bit. I still got a ways to go. We’re two months before it really hits the fan, and I think I’ve had a great off-season, in terms of traveling and visiting family, having a great time. I mean, I’ve been working, but I feel like for the next two months, it’s really going to be getting into a routine, really focused on what I need to do and getting ready for the season.
Great. I don’t get to feel smart often. Forgive me this moment:
My guess is that he wanted an "off-season" for 2 1/2 months, is in Florida and partying and (obviously, I’m guessing) will start from here on out working out.
