    I like Gilbert.. I really do.. he is my favorite player outside of the Rockets... but he really needs to STFU. It's ruining his team and whatever chemistry he has with his coach and fellow players.

    (it would be nice to see him drop 50 on the Cavs tho)

    Arenas is telling the truth about Lebron James tho, i only remember 2~3 game-winning shots by the King

    Winning layups, not shots.

    Not that there's anything wrong with that, but he hasn't hit Michael Jordan game winners

    Yeah that one where Lebron cuts through 4 Washington defenders like a hot knife through butter. That must be the worst defensive play in the history of NBA
    Were Van Gundy coaching the Wizards at that time i think he would resign immediately

    I want to hear Gilbert confirm this. My first impression is he either didn't say this stuff or he was deliberately yanking the guy's chain.

    If this is true, I m speechless........ but i hope Arenas will at least score 30points this time! :D

    What he said about Lebron is true, Lebron just dont have the mental yet and he is definitely overhyped at this stage of his career. Again Lebron he is still young, he got enough times to prove the doubters, myself and Arenas, wrong!

    It doesn't matter if he is right or wrong. Why would you call out someone like that, esp. when that someone is a lot better than u.

    he sure isn't playing like he's "a lot" better than Gilbert. Of course, we all know Lebron has all the talent in the world but the guy coasts like Vince Carter v. 2.0.

    As for not wanting to take the last shot...eh....this is what I see when Lebron plays: he either dominates the game from start to finish or he'll slowly fold if he's not hitting in the beginning of the game.

    I wouldn't be surprised of Lebron drops 50 on Arenas' head actually.

    Or, since they are friends, he's trying to motivate Bron out of his slump this season.

    I think they are friends and Lebron is laughing his ass off at this prediction.

    Geez.. I want to like this kid, I really do. But stupid cocky comments like this, even after he was shut down by the BLAZERS, make it soooo much harder.

    Arenas needs to tone down that cockiness or someone will stick a c*** in his big mouth.

    Arenas: "Hey guys, I am declaring that I will NOT play any team play whatsoever and attempt to score as high as possible, as I am selfish. Come watch me fail again.."

    I understand if he tries to do the Muhammad Ali approach by getting a lot of attention and play with the opponent's mind, but Ali usually wins. I don't understand why Arenas would make another comment like that after he got his ass handed to him by the blazers. Geez, that's like Ali losing to pretty boy Oscar.

    Lebron is still in Gilbert's head because of those missed FTs after Lebron messed with his mind in the playoffs.

    Anyway, Gilbert needs to grow up. It was entertaining for a while but I'm sure even his friends are embarrassed by his antics now.

    This guy is a jackass who putting his personal stats ahead of his team. (For his next trick he’s going to score 50, tongue-kiss the cheer leaders, and then do the half time show) This reminds me of that old Fresh Prince episode where Will joins the high school basketball team and its stop being a team and became all about Will. Good ole Uncle Phil had to put him in his place.

    I like Agent Zero. But I think he's been watching too much wrestling lately.

    he's right about lebron thus far though. he's not the last-shot type. he probably will eventually become that, but right now he's exhibiting a lot of timidity in the clutch.
