"The guy LeBron needs is Sam Cassell," says Arenas, "He needs someone who wants to take the big shots at the end of the game." I interject that LeBron would never stand for that -- it would kill his ego. "LeBron would much rather have Cassell take the final shot," says Arenas. "People don't realize that LeBron doesn't want it."

I ask Arenas about his recent fifty point guarantee against Portland. "I knew after I said that that they'd double (team) me," he says "so I came out not too aggressive and got my teammates involved. It was part of my plan. But when we go up to their place, they won't be expecting it, and they won't double me. That's when I'm really planning on dropping 50."

dude talks too much.... someone shut him up

Stupid arrogant asshole who is a me first point guard. I guess he thinks less of Nash since Nash doesn't always take the big shot.

Gilly's an idiot. I remember him mouthing off about 'payback' 'cause he initially didn't get picked as an all-star last year. :rolleyes Dude seriously needs to shut it and just play ball; his team is struggling pretty good at the moment.

I wonder who he thought hit the game winner two, three straight times to win by one against his team in last year's playoffs. Not to mention the fact that he was the one who choked at the FT at the end of that series.

time for him to shut up and play, he had a terrible game tonight

8-26 FGM-A and 1-9 3s for 22 points, only one assist...ok, he had 8 boards and went to the line for 5 points but this is not efficient at all

Gilbert Arenas is becoming the Terrell Owens of football, pretty soon he won't have respect from his teammates, and everyone will hate him. An Arenas - Owens comparison is actually pretty accurate when you think about it...they both have the capability to be the best guy on the court/field, but often they scrub it up and their me first attitude reveals how shitty of true players they are. They both talk a lot.

Just wait, Arenas is still entering the TO phase, it won't be long before no one lieks him. He talks way too much and worries too much about his stats, and his 37.57 three-point attempts per game shows that.

Sure, he has some big games, but he also has his completely shitty games where he misses 13 threes, 27 total FG's...just like TO when he has big games, well, used to, and also has his games where he drops the ball 5 times.

Let's take a look:

Feb 14@ PHI (worst defense in league) 8/26 = 30% FG. 3-pointers? 1/9.
Feb 11 POR 3/15 = 20% FG. 0/8 3PT land...stunning.
Jan 26 @ DET 10/27 FGs 2/10 3's
Jan 20 BOS 10/26 FGs 2/9 3's
Jan 17 NYK 4/14 FGs 0/5 3's
Jan 13 SAS 6/20 FGs 1/5 3's
Jan 12 NOK 5/19 FGs 2/7 3's...not bad for the Hibachi
Dec 30 @MIL 7/22 FGs 2/9 3's
Dec 18 @DEN 10/30 FGs 3/12 3's
Nov 24 @ MEM 1/12 FGs 0/3 3's
Nov 22 @ HOU 8/26 FGs
Nov 17 @ DET 7/20 FGs 1/5 3's
Nov 15 @ NYK 5/19 FGs 0/7 3's
Nov 12 NJN 6/23 FGs 4/12 3's
Nov 6 @ORL 6/20 FGs 1/3 3's
Nov 1 @LE 2/12 FGs 1/3 3's

Now, these aren't all of his games where he has shot poorly only in total FGs, these are most of his games where he shot poorly from all FGs, including 3's. There are other games where he hasn't shot bad from 3's, but in total FGs has been aweful anyway.

In conclusion, he shoots way too many 3's for the hell of it. He plays for himself. After looking at his numbers, he probably averages 9 3's per game.

I did it for you since you don't seem to want to show the rest of his stats.

Assists - 6.1
Freethrow % - .837

What a surprise he gets his teammates involve and makes a high number of his freethrows. He is no Nash but the Wizards would not even be in the playoffs without him even in the East.

02-15-2007, 10:56 PM

For each individual game? No thanks, what I did just took quite a few minutes.

But for the year, he averages 83% FT's and 6 assists...nothing THAT amazing I mean, he is a PG...

The point was he's a bitch who overrates himself and takes so many poor shots. He's trying to tell LeBron that he doesn't come through during the clutch and take shots, but at least LeBron doesn't take a thousand ill-advised shots per game. Arenas is just trying to take some limelight away from LeBron, knowing that LeBron is a thousand times better than Gilbert will ever be.

Thats your opinion and I think he is one of the best players in the NBA and he is only 24 so he has not even reached his full potential. Just ask Kobe.

Today vs. Minnesota, Gilbert's stats:

4/22 FG , 1/11 3PT, further proving my point that he shoots way too much, especially from behind the arc.

I guess he gets some credit though for only missing one foul shot.... :rolleyes

:lol :lol :lol terrible but i'm glad he's putting up stats like this, maybe it'll stop his verbal blabbering...or maybe he's content to settle for the 50 point game every now and then

someone put a muzzle on him already, he's infecting his teammates who are picking silly little nicknames and then getting belittled by mr. streaky for trying to take a tiny spot of his spotlight

from espn.com's daily dime:

In his NBA.com blog, Wizards guard Gilbert Arenas takes teammate DeShawn Stevenson to task for grabbing a nickname he deems inappropriate. (Stevenson's name reflects his field-goal percentage) ...

"And let's talk about 'Mister 50.' Can you believe that crap? Mister 50 ain't had more than 30 points in one game yet, but he's Mister 50. I'm not paying attention to a proclaimed Mister 50. If he was Mister 50, why did he lose to a one-armed man? Tell that to Mister 50. If he ain't scoring 29 points a game, he can't talk to me. I'm Mister 29 … Forget that, I don't need to be Mister 29. I'm Agent Zero, son."

The guy is too damn selfish to ever be a great player. He thinks all he has to do is be a big time scorer and he is doing his job. He is a lousy defender, with no leadership skills whatsoever. I bet the Wizards look to get rid of him before his market value drops too much.

Eddie Jordan deserves some of the blame here. Arenas is a good player but a coach like a Popovich or a Jackson is what he needs. I get the feeling thast he really does not respect Jordan too much. Also remember that he is without Jamison or Butler which means he is the only option they have on offense. He has no true big either.

I agree about him not respecting Jordan but to me as an owner and a GM when my supposed franchise player is giving constant quotes about his stats and not about team play that is a huge RED FLAG. This guy wants to be a star more than he wants to be a winner in my opinion.

A player can't have a bad game every now and then? I don't see threads like this for Shobe, Tmac etc. He has a lot going on right now, 2 of his best players are out and his son is due anyday now. I'm sure he's more concerned about that than whether he scores 50 or not.
every now and then my ass....don't try to tell me Arenas doesn't care about how much he scores, especially when he guarantees 50 points against certain teams rather than be concerned about winning the game.

Congrats to Arenas on the birth of his son.

Gilbert Arenas was excused from practice yesterday so he could be in Oakland, Calif., for the birth of his second child, a boy named Alijah Amani Arenas. Arenas expected to fly back to Washington today and arrive at Verizon Center around 5 p.m. for tonight's game against the Hornets. Arenas also has a 14-month-old daughter named Izela.

"It's great," Arenas said in a telephone interview. "I even have a nickname for him: Triple A."

Then he came out and got a dub http://spurstalk.com/forums/images/smilies/wakeup.gif

I'm not a fan of immature athletes on pathetic teams. Why can't he take lessons from Dirk Nowitzki or Dwyane Wade on how to be a star?

He should be more concerned how Washington has(and will) choke away their division to Miami.
