Gilbert Arenas Fanclub


Recommended Posts

Welcome to the Gilbert Arenas fanclub. Right now we have one member, hoping to add more in the future. Post your thoughts on Gilbert's play, his selection to USA basketball, the Wizards, or any other NBA topic that comes to mind. I'm glad we have this NBA forum I'll be posting more often now, lol.Paul Pierce hit a nasty jumper at the buzzer tonight to beat the Wiz. Amazing shot. Kudos to Pierce, but double Z-E-R-O is still the best guard in the east.

More than just above average, top 20 in the game, probably top 15. Add me to the club, Gilbert is the man, even though he left my Warriors.
Yeh, he is not your prototypical NBA player. He is cool, but also kind of weird in a good way, if ya know what I mean. Taking showers with his jersey on during halftime and coming out at the start of the third in dripping wet shorts is something no other NBA player could pull off. Like Daniel, Gilbert spends a lot of time and money giving back to his fans because he is a true fan himself. Witness his one jersey salute after every home game. Plus his game is just N-A-S-T-Y, and not in a Ron Mexico sort of way. :club:

Posting a bit late, but the Easter Conference "assasin" ripped Detroit again last night for 34 points. Monster game and thoroughly dominated fellow all-star Billups. That makes Washington 2-0 against Detroit this year. We got their number, that's why Wizards are going to the finals!

He tried his best though. Dude shot the ball every time he got it

I don't care either way about the guy, but you have to root somewhat for a guy who wants to play the best team in the league in the playoffs because the head coach of that team didn't play him enough in the All-Star game. That is golden.

Arenas is definitely underrated, but top 5 player? That's a bit much.
He's a top 5 player! I'd rank him ahead of Kobe, who doesn't get his teammates involved, Duncan and Shaq are having their worst years statistically, KG's team is not performing up to par, AI can't guard anyone, TMac is having personal issues, JKidd is getting old. I'd say Arenas, Nash, Marion, Brand, Lebron, Wade, and Pierce are the best players in the NBA currently, with others like Kobe, Ray Allen, VC, KG, TD, and Billups making up that next tier. I'm sure I've forgotten some players, and these are just MY opinions. You can think differently and I encourage you to do so :club:

I can see where you're coming from, but he's only top 15 to me. Sorry. lolNash/Marion/Lebron/Wade/Pierce/Kobe (as much as I hate him)/KG/healthy TD probably all go above him in my book.

I've heard a lot of positive things about this guy. He's a great role model for people to look up to! As opposed to people like 50 Cent whom get mimicked so much more often...Go Gilbert!!!!!!

I'd have to include Kobe in my Top 5, it's hard not to include probably the most talented player in the L in my Top 5. I think Brand and Arenas still have to prove themselves in the playoffs before they can be classified as elite players. TD, KG and AI have proven themselves over the years, because they've had playoff success at least at some point. I wouldn't put Gilbert in the Top 5 best players in the L, but I'd probably say he had 1 of the 5 best seasons of any player in the L. I'd put Nash, Kobe, Lebron, Wade and Arenas in that category.I think Gilbert has the talent to be a Top 5 player and easily Top 10, but he's not there yet. He's still young though, so there'll be plenty of time to get there. I do love his game and his personality.

I LOVE GA, but I'm also realistic, and it is ridiculous to call him a top 5 player at this point in his career. He might be there some day, but right now top 5 has to be some combination of Kobe, Wade, Lebron, Dirk, and KG (he's still good even if his team sucks). Duncan would be there if not for injury, and Shaq if he's playing his best. GA is borderline top 10 at best.

Bow to the greatness of Gilbert Arenas! Leading the Wiz to a game 2 win and evening the series against "King" Lebron at 1-1

damn i got hardcore money on cav's to win the series , i'll only root against gil-ber-to in game 7.

I'd have to include Kobe in my Top 5, it's hard not to include probably the most talented player in the L in my Top 5.
i hate to click and post this but, your way off, kobe is neck-to-neck mvp vs steve nash, and i believe the winner of that pho/lal series will decide that vote. i own the 81 pt kobe game on my dvr, do u?, until uve watched that game from start to finish , u wont truly apprecieate his greatness. yes lebron may be better, but kobe may be better than mike, then years later, lebron may be better than KOBEim drunk hollax files is on in the background i gotta turn this **** off

Hmmmm, I don't get what your disagreeing with. I'm basically giving Kobe his props as 1 of the best players in the L in that post, yet your arguing with that? Also, the playoffs have no effect on MVP voting, all the awards are based on regular season.
