Gilbert Arenas smashed his own car partly because of Netflix dispute with ex-girlfriend

Gilbert Arenas is currently being sued by his ex-girlfriend Laura Govan because she alleges he evicted her from their Los Angeles mansion and “forcefully took” back the engagement ring he gave her, reportedly worth $1 million. It turns out those weren’t the only issues the two had.

Arenas posted a video on Instagram on Tuesday, showing him smashing his Mercedes in 2014 in rebuttal to Govan allegedly breaking windows in his house and throwing his computer into the pool.

There are some serious issues involved, but Arenas appears especially upset by the loss of his Netflix account. The password was saved on the computer, so he was unable to access it after it was thrown into the pool. Here is the caption from his Instagram post.

TMZ will be posting this tomorrow....listen: I DONT CARE...in #March2014 she came to my calabasas house and broke EVERY SINGLE WINDOW so I decided too show her I’ll break my OWN shit before she does...Yes #TMZ both cars are mines and under my name....when someone breaks 34 windows...it’s #DOYOUBRODY but when she toss ur #3 monitor computer in the pool,you’re like HELL MUTHA FYCKN NAW, I don’t remember my #Netflix password it was auto saved,you piece of shyt...#TMZ u take a person #Netflix away,nothing else matters....on a serious note this is kinda sad....I now get my kids every wensday and every other weekend,joint custody and 50/50 summer......but I guess when u want $244k a month and 1 day a month visitation and don’t get it...you’ll spend ur days trying to destroy the other parent image so u can get full custody smdh...#TMZ here’s my comment: I LIKE NETFLIX... speaking of Netflix has anybody seen #Champs with Tysons holyfield and Hopkins???

TMZ reports the car Arenas smashed was one Govan drove. Govan filed the lawsuit 12 months after the incident in the video.
