I don't know, String had let it be known he had D'Angelo killed and had already put in motion of getting Avon locked up so who cares if Avon came to understand since Avon wasn't gonna be around anymore. String was supposed to be the smart one but he was real dumb those last few episodes he was in

but why still give accurate info.......you can dodge him for a few days til he get locked up.
he could have gave a different time and location and if avon didnt get knocked ....he could just say he got caught up and made the move early and forgot to call.

Never underestimate the strength of shared experience and a personal relationship. I don't think it ever occurred to Stringer that Avon might have him lined up. Nigga is aggressive in the streets with his enemies. Not with his own squad. Nigga gave mad passes to D'angelo. He let Cutty leave and gave him some bread. Got in Stinger shit about not respecting the Sunday truce. Etc, etc, etc.
Stinger ain't see that shit coming.
Stringer wasn't moving smart in the end, I don't know why the wrote him to be dumb those last episodes

Stringer wanted Avon approval
Even Stringer admitting the D situation was his aha moment cause Avon was always chastising him
Stringer was violating street rules but didn’t have to face consequences cause Avon always had his back
ironically admitting what he did to D justified what Avon did. If it’s about the street code, he broke it times over

A nigga being smart don't mean he makes smart moves 100% of the time. Smart niggas make dumb ass mistakes everyday

What could have Steinger done differently...his life stuck to the script

he could have
1. ran the business like it always has and should have met up with marlo or Omar
2. take his time with them politicians. not get in over his head.
3. not think he was bigger than avon.....he felt avon in jail is better than avon on the street.
4. not get on the bad side of omar...from killing his boyfriend to getting brother on him.
5. just not being a stand up dude...he wanted the rule to change because he felt he was changing.

This is all revisionist shit fam
1.He met w Marlo to offer him the package Marlo passed....
2. The faster the shit worked out w the politicians the sooner they could leave the drug game behind...
3.from his perspective at that time Avon warring about selling drugs was detrimental to his plans of legit for all of them
4. Lol fuck Omar.... it’s the streets....Omar started this entire shit by robbing them...anything after is the cost of doing business....
5. Stringer was the only one to understand that you can’t sell drugs and kill niggas forever and tried to set up his ppl for the post drug dealing life...his only issue was that his niggas weren’t ready to let that life go....
He should have left the streets alone, he said himself they made enough money to get out. At that point he should have said fuck Avon and went legit by himself

1. Marlo was the comp....should have took him out early.
2. handle Marlo and avon would have been in a better place to hear him out. Avon was a street nigga first and cant lose based on his name. gotta play dominos the right way...let them fall in your favor.
3. at the time he didnt do what he should have while avon was in jail. avon had the NY connect and this nigga out here getting tapped down shit from the easi side...fucking up they name and product.
4. omar was ok with it being the streets...he didnt agree with the abuse of a body.
5. stringer was trying to go big in a game where he was a small dog. he didnt grow within the game. thats why avon was warning him. politics are the same a drug dealing...you gotta start off small and work your way up.
6. if stringer didnt want that life......he shouldnt have killed D. you cant be streets when you want it t be then think you can leave it alone to benefit him.

That was to protect the organization...if Dee snaps and starts running his mouth ... it’s over for all of them
If anybody else in the organization was acting like Dee , Avon would have had him killed...only reason why Dee got a pass was cuz he was his nephew
As Marlo asked you willing to bet your future on that?
Stringer wasn’t

And he was getting high? Dee was a ticking time bomb

it wasn’t his place. If Stringer was anybody else, he probably would have been killed. For violating Sunday truce, sending dudes on that dummy mission with Orlando, acting out of turn having Dee killed
I’m sure I’m forgetting more but his own actions got him killed. He violated the name that was keeping him safe when he sent Omar after his own paid muscle. he not only put the organization and their reputation at risk, he put everybody lives at risk manipulating killers

You're off about #1 in a way.
Avon crew had the towers and the low rises and Marlo had some corners that had nothing to do with where Avon was running his show and getting money.
Once the towers got tore down which was Avon's biggest money maker he needed a new place to replace all that money. That new place was the corners that Marlo had built up that Avon never gave a fuck about because he had the towers and low rises.
So actually Avon started the shit with Marlo and became his comp. Marlo handled the shit accordingly. Avon beefing with Marlo gave Marlo everything he always wanted. Marlo wanted to wear the crown and Avon came fucking with him. So in the streets and to everybody watching Marlo ain't doing nothing but what a man should which stand up for himself and what he built and not just let a nigga come take something from him without a fight.
