No Joe problem was thinking he can outsmart any and everyone with them so called propositions

Avon was the mastermind behind Prop Joe getting killed. Unlike Prop Joe, Avon saw right through Marlo and his plans and used Marlo to get at Joe knowing Marlo wasn't going to be in the game that long because Marlo wasn't making alliances. Avon reference this when he tells Marlo how Sergei came to him. Notice how Avon tells Marlo that Sergei doesn't know who Marlo is. Avon tells Marlo to give his sister $100,00 but that money isn't for his sister. It's for him because in S1, Avon lost $100,000 to Prop Joe in that East/West side basketball game. Avon figured out that Prop Joe used Stringer against him and ruined his organization when Brother Mouzone told him to give Stringer up. It's a reason why Slim was with the CO-OP and if you watch carefully at the dialogue and actions of Slim, you can tell Avon instructed Slim to spy on Prop Joe. That's how Avon knew what Marlo's plan was. Like Prop Joe told Marlo in the library, "I keep my ear to the street" and Avon was doing that behind prison walls. Once Marlo took over the CO-OP and was going to promote Slim, Slim turned it down("I aint cut out to be no CEO") but really, Slim was still working for Avon. Once Marlo was out the game, Slim killed Cheese and claims it was for Joe to justify doing it but it really was for Avon now Slim and Rick got the Greek connect. Prop Joe demise was going against Avon💯

You have a great analysis but I strongly disagree about the money being for Avon himself. It was genuinely for his sister (Because he was gone, lost most of his earners and she just lost Deangelo). Avon is not a con man, if the money was for himself he would have just stated that. He wouldn't try to appeal to Marlo's sympathy by mentioning family.

Joe underestimated Marlo greatly

In my last rewatch I realized how Joe manipulates Stringer. His "Charlie Sollers" and "Buy it for a dollar, sell it for 2" pitches to Stringer are because he realizes that's who Stringer wants to be. He gets what he wants (3 of the 6 towers!) by appealing to Stringer's desire to be "a smart business man", just like Clay Davis does.

*Joe messed up when he didn't rectify the shipment robbery situation.* He said it himself in the outside meeting with the co-op stating, *"y'all was fine when there wasn't a problem"* but Hungryman and the others made a valid point stating, it was Joe's people doing security thus making Joe responsible for making things right but instead of making the co-op happy he rebuffs the notion and then threatens to cut them off. This made for the perfect storm and gave Marlo the opportunity to question Joe's and the connects as well as allowing him to get close to the supplier. Joe assumed he could appease Marlo and not have to worry about the Greeks working with him. Unfortunately Joe forgot that in the game there are no real loyalties just temporary beneficial alliances and it was that same lesson that eventually got him killed.

6:15 when joe says “rob from me and I’ll kill your whole family” he’s saying that to con stringer as if joe and Omar don’t know each other already. It’s already established at that point that they do know each other but with stringer joe wants to present things as if they don’t have a relationship, which is also why he says “don’t believe we have met” and then introduces himself to Omar. The reason Omar doesn’t think anything of the comment is because he understands what’s going on and joe is just posing in front of stringer. It’s not so much that Omar doesn’t respect him or take him seriously, but he knows that comment was just part of the act.

You know, Little Kevin was exactly the same kind of hustler as Joe. Added unnecessary steps to tasks and involved more people than necessary just to avoid putting in effort himself. As you say, guys like Joe can only get by when nobody realizes what they're doing, so Kevin explaining himself to Marlo was really stupid. It's often fine to work smarter instead of harder, but that doesn't mean you can always avoid working hard when the situation calls for it.

When you really analyse it, Prop Joe is one hell of a capable player. I don’t think his age is mentioned? But he survived in the game for at least a generation more than any other character. Yes he got clipped by Marlo in a shady double, more like triple cross, but Marlo and his crew were out of the game or dead shortly after. On paper, Joe is the most successful player in the series. By a “wide” margin; very wide!!!

His intentions aren't 100% clear, he's quite likeable but also is shown to be quite flawed as he just makes assumptions of loyalty rather than thinking about the bigger picture and earning it.

Whoever created this show, they made Avon look inconsistent. My point based on the fact, that in the beginning of the story, no one cop in whole Baltimore knew who in da hell is Avon. He was like a shade. Maybe it's only Stringer's initiative, but Avon at least listened to him. Thanks to great effort of the cops, he is going to jail. But when he comes out he completely transforms to someone who wants to run their corners, to be an OG, so he isn't in the shadows anymore. He stops listen to Stringer for no real reason. It looks like he lost a couple dozen IQ points in prison.

Rip prop joe the wire guy and the real life guy💯💯💯💯💯🇺🇸🦅🅰️➕✅

Joe is about the deal. The idea that trade is mutually beneficial, that nations engaged in trade needn't go to war. He gets himself out of situations by proposing deals. Don't kill me, I could help you get what you want. A strong component of a deal like that is trust, which is why he presents as non-threatening, and why he doesn't posture for power alone. This is the more down to earth version of Stringer representing business.

His problem was bringing in Marlo to begin with. His other problem is not having an exit plan.

Bell and Prop Joes mistake was they were both long term thinkers and assumed Marlo was too. But really he knew it could be over at at any moment and wanted to grab the crown while he could, how long he held it didn’t matter because once he got it he’d keep it or die trying, and he didn’t fear death or seemingly anything other than losing his true purpose. Which, unrelated, is what happened. Ironically if he’d personally taken on Omar, which he was willing to, he would have been a legend no matter what happened. Even if he was killed he at least would have been a part of Omar’s story. But instead he gets what everyone wanted and it means nothing to him.

Straight outta Kenya, thank you for this analysis. I liked Prop Joe - shadow man. Its possible he potentially outlast all the other young Turks and possibly Marlo had the series gone on - age-wise. Would you also consider doing one on both Lester Freamon and Clay Davis?

He was always playing both sides and this killed him after all.

tiny correction - Omar doesn't blink at Joe saying "you ever steal from me, I'll kill your whole family" because this is by no means news to Omar. Omar himself has killed for equal or less valid reasons, and the game *is* the game; he's not hearing anything new here. You can't live that close to the edge and fear death. Omar is one of the few people on the planet who could stare Brother Mouzone straight in the eyes, so I don't think it's fair to deduce Joe is being disrespected by Omar here. really dig the content tho

Marlo and Omar both sensed Prop Joe’s weaknesses and exploited them. Avon knew what Prop Joe was about, but viewed him as just part of the game. He never viewed Joe as a threat and didn’t have aspirations for the east side so he was just someone to do business periodically. However Joe was part of what pulled the Barkesdales apart when String started having more allegiance to Joe then Avon. It ultimately backfired on Joe as he overextended himself and sided with Marlo rather then Avon, not realizing Avon was actually standing between him and Marlo, who would ultimately take him out. Prop Joe had mastered the east side and was sort of autopilot, but didn’t quite grasp the warside of the Weside. The west side was more of a warrior land, and Prop Joe thought he could use his business acumen to reason with a Marlo. However, there was no reasoning with a Marlo, and for the co-op to work in a Westside context it needed both String AND Avon. Otherwise Joe was vulnerable to the more war-like nature of the Westside scene. It proved his undoing. His advice also hurt String who lost sight of the nature of the Westside and thought it was a waist of time to be beefing over some corners. He started using some of Prop Joes view of the game, thinking it was just about business, forgetting that the Westside wasn’t just about business, but about power, and there was always going to be a Marlo or a Omar to contend with so long as they were operating out of the Westside. Prop Joe was always on fairly solid ground on the eastside, but his MO needed some adjusting to deal with the ruthless, war-like nature of the Westside. He even had Slim who has trying to warn him, but he didn’t take it seriously and it proved his undoing. .

However, His streak of violence although unseen, doesn't mean he didn't have it, but it would make more sense to see what he would gain in becoming a face for negotiations and not a face of degeneration; however, betting the house is dangerous. Interesting enough Prop joes direction towards OMAR is i'll kill your entire family which indeed OMAR call's his bluff. MARLOW however calls prop joes and has him killed at the end. interesting polar those 2 are, even their names sort of play off each other OMAR to MARLOW REMOVING THE W AND THE L AND THEIR LIKE 2 CHARACTERS IN A DEFIMATE PATH OF DESTRUCTION AN UNSTOPPABLE FORCE MEETS AN IMMOVABLE OBJECT...BUT THAT'S FOR ANOTHER DAY.

If you look for subtle changes in stories as an indicator of a con man, you will find con men everywhere. Flaws in human memory alone will guarantee that stories change slightly with each retelling. Add that to how stories change as different people tell them (Telephone game) and you will be lucky to ever hear the exact same story twice. Cheers :)

And if you feel “afraid” or hesitant to ask clarifying questions to an individual based on anticipations for their reactions-that hesitancy suggests and tells you right there that there is something disingenuous and manipulative about the person. People who are manipulative are often experts at displaying disbelieving intense anger when someone questions their word and motivations… it is a preventive technique that helps avoid those situations and allows them to run their con without people questioning them.

When he shoots Cheese (Method Man) at the Towers, he makes a comment about how that bullet was non-lethal, but the next round in the chamber was pretty much the home made version of a cop killer - a round designed to pierce bullet proof vests. And he has the best line in the entire show. When him and Omar were plotting to kill Barksdale, Omar says there's no access from the alley or something, and they'll have to 'go in the front.' Brother Mouzone says flatly, 'that'll be a new experience for you.' It took me a second, then I realized he was goofing on Omar for being gay, and 'going in the back door' when he has sex. He said it with such a straight face that at first I didn't recognize it as a burn. When I did I was like OH DAYUM. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Prop Joe just loves doing deals. Period.

Prop Joe would be a great youtuber

The Greeks liked Propjoe because he wa quiet and not loud gangster drug dealer who bring a lot of heat. As soon as Marlie got the connect he got arrested straight away of propjoe was alive he would be still doing good bussiness with the Greeks

The one who controls spice controls the Universe. The one who controls Greek stuff controls Baltimore. When the Greeks decided to work with Marlo, Joe was done. And Joe probably didn't expect the Greeks to work with anyone else.

The guy that played Prop Joe was my real life cousin.

No, Marlo saw how much cheese hated Hungry Man, so Chris and Snoop kidnapped him, in hopes that cheese would help them. He didn’t “tip Marlo off” per say, he basically got ushered into Marlo’s crew afterwards. The only thing he didn’t account for was a bullet to the head by Slim

@@ep3578 but Cheese had already crossed Joe by giving Marlo Butchie. Cheese always resented Joe for basically handing Omar the shipment which involved Cheese having “a gun in his face”. Dude was mad insecure

Joe played the long game with an impatient young man. There was only one way that could end.

I think prop Joe's goal was to be charlie salters (he tells stringer about him in a season 2 or 3 episode).

He retires and becomes manager at the local footlocker. He becomes a full time reseller because it’s more profitable. He has full access to all the new releases. Yeeyzs, off whites Nikes/Jordan’s ,dunks , basically any shoe they get in. Marlo used a blank and messed with props head and let him go. He moved to the suburbs of that area. If you watch the show the corner you see him at work when the main character kid from the show takes a day trip the suburban area to go school shopping or go Shopping in general. Joe is seen helping him with his shoe size. Joe is laying low working the 9-5 to stay occupied and low key. But the its very lucrative to because the shoe reselling market. But his home is payed off with his retirement money he has more than enough to do what ever he wants now. He just goes to work , hangs with family. He basically just a family man now taking cere of cheese’s kids to who think cheese Died and are raised by joe.

Can you do a Avon Barksdale video

You should do Prezbo.

Prez is fascinating, I really want to do him and Carver. I think their character arcs are two of the best in the show.

@@LionsandLegions I think the same. Never understood why Prezbo failed at an authority position as a cop but succeeded in an authority position at the school. And it's also interesting Prezbo is the only cop on the show that fired a shot.
