So I guess Gilbert doesn't need an agent.
Afterall, he's known as "Agent Zero".... :wordyo:

I wonder if the Warriors' lawyers wrote his contract in legal gibberish that only another lawyer could understand and Gil signed for like actually 5 mill a year.

Bascially he told everyone that wanted to sign him..."hey listen here, I'm Mr. I took a year off, and I'm still going to get 100 million **** dollars, because I can write and say what ever I want!"

It would be a dream come true for us. It would be like the Pau Gasol trade or the Kevin Garnett trade.

whts wrong wit Arenas signing here.. we are in need of a good shooting guardand & wit Mcgrady, Yao, Gill we wil hve an elite team!?

(The Wizards seem to be offering $125 million over six years. The Rockets at most can offer about $33 million over five years. Perhaps the Rockets feel that Arenas might not prefer their offer. -- Jonathan)


Aw, man! I just knew he was going to come here! Now we will never have the third scoring option we need to beat the Jazz in the first round!

(The Rockets could afford it. If they had some star drop in their laps, they would go over the luxury tax line. They did last summer to sign Steve Francis. I imagine they would if they could get a Pau Gasol or Ray Allen. They would not for a role player on the edge of the rotation. Having a third top scorer would be helpful, but not mandatory. -- Jonathan)


Geez, his blog is pure gold.
