Man I cant believe this....its sad to see generational screw ups.....you would think the cycle would have been broken after Nick Van Excel made it to the NBA....but thats crazy to have your dad in Jail then you go to the NBA and find success then the craziness skips a generation and your son ends up in their and has caught serious time......THIS IS TRAGIC ON SO MANY LEVELS.....MAN THIS IS SAD!!....Van Excel Sr. must have had a messed up relationship with Nick Van Excel because other relatives use to come and visit him in jail but Nick never came to visit him..everyone wanted to see Nick cause he was an NBA STAR back then.....but yeah Nick Sr. he was always bragging about his son but I think they had a messed up relationship cause Nick Van Excel never came to visit or wrote him any letters that I know of.....man this right here is crazy....hits real close to home.

money does not make promblems go away.
and relationships better.
maybe this young guy felt unwanted
@Anthony this is a very touching story for me bro! young dudes dont be knowing what time it is out here- they walk around like young mice- barley having vision until they catch that M-ONEZZY 2ZZZY and turn into a RAT
If you are really about that murdr game and you understand the game, then snitching aint the way- not saying he is but most young -BUCKS- get caught in that trap way of living and sober up with reality looking them in the face telling them>>>>>> UR LIFE IS GONE!!
I feel bad for Nick because no father wants his son getting bagged for a M1, but neither do anyone want their child getting locked up period. Its a hurting thing! but as a man if u see ur son go thru that - U defintley have to be stron for him- because that crying shit will make him weak
Comment by ANTHONY on February 2, 2013 at 10:04pm @DADDYMACK...word....xxtra real talk bro!!!!....I feel you.....My son is only 10 and I try to listen and take advice from anyone who has kids going through the prison system...Ive been locked myself but I cant even think of my son ending up there!!!!!!!!!
