Dont run from my topic Miller, you give good advice. What's your point on Gil.

Wait, what? I agreed with you. What am I missing?

[Rafael122]

I don't know what I'd do if we lose to the Clippers tonight. Paint a bath tub or just stare at the wall...I dunno. At least win this one fellas.

[hands11]

Unless it's 100% better, why push it? Sit it out, AD. Sit it out.

I don't mind AD coming back if he thinks he is ready.

I just dont want to see CB on the court. Hip flexers take time to heal.

AD, DS, AJ, AB, BH should get the job done.

AD will make sure we feed the post and we will handle the presure.

I say we rack up a win and when we come out of the break we will have CB. My problems revolve around who will start then. I say it's past the time to make the switch to the future. It time to start AB regardless of who is healthy.

Your not missing anything, I was just asking. But some are missing the FACT.

With Buttler, AJ and the Super Star GIL we have a great chance to win it all.

Lets not forget Haywood this year Eddy Jordan. You stupid MF. How dare you bench our best D player. I'm so pissed at Eddy.

[hands11]

Anyone care to ask if we are better W/O Gil?

BTW that topic made me sick, just hearing some of you even say "YES".

SOS mean anything to you .439% and now over .500%

Buttler = All Star / Gil = Super Star is it clear now.

NO - it isn't

Most of us had a good debate about the issue. It was a good thread short of people with GA love getting offended and offering banter like you just did.

Besides, no one was talking about just not having GA. We were talking about have Kobe instead.

I think the topic making it all the way to the press will actually end up being good for GA in the long run. It must have been hard for him to hear but I'm sure it got him thinking. That along with watching these guys play from the sidelines so he can study what he needs to bring when he returns I think will make him a better Wizard.

Also, Chris Paul arrival and making the All Star team is another example of what kind of game a top PG should play.

CB = All Star ? That is true but CB is the man. CB also = super star.
He isn't even done getting better.

I feel pretty confident that when he returns, he will be the player many of us were asking him to be. I think you will see more D and a more mature game. I look for his assist to go up.

This really is a very talented roster. With the right coaching and everyone healthy. I like our chances to do something.

[FreeBalling]

Let me make this clear, this is Gilbert Areans team, are you F*cking High.

Kobe? OMG are you smoking the red bud. The Lakers are not letting KOBE go. ( BTW I read all the threads.) Yea right Kobe to DC for Gil. LOL.

And if you think Buttler is a super star you need to watch more tape of Gil. How short sighted are you.

Thank GOD we have EG as a GM.

Dream on poppy head. This is CBs team. He is the 2 time All Star ( back to back selections by the coaches ) and co caption. He is the more rounded player and leader.

As for Kobe here. No one said it was actually going to happen. I was just pointing out we weren't talking about is the team better solely by removing GA. We were talking about replacing him with someone. That was my point.

You are the short sighted one. Get a clue. Flashy pts and shot jacking doesn't make the better player. GA is a great talent but has some maturing to do before he will be a great player and a leader. CB is a great talent, a leader, and he plays under control giving the team WHATEVER IT NEEDS.

He is in a unique category for Pts, rbs, assists and steals.

CB is tough juice. GA is a hibachi

Dame right Thank God EG is the GM.

That being said, I off to smoke some more of that Red Bud.

Go Wiz.

Butler is a Super Star. Just take a look at our record without Caron over the last 2 seasons. Both Gil and CB are super stars matter of fact.

[Chocolate City Jordanaire]

Next season, if Gil and Antawn resign, I still expect this to be Butler's team because he walks the walk without talking.

Jamison's the leader in the clubhouse.

Butler is the leader on the court.

Arenas is to present the mercurial talent, who must make the leap to Billups-like leadership or at the very least become more of a grinder, like Caron.

[Donkey McDonkerton]

Caron is an all star, he is what you want on your team. He defines a player who gives 100% and wants to win badly. He works hard, stays focusd and is an awesome player. You only know Caron if you watch basketball.

Gil is a SUPER StAR, 99.5% of DC knows who gil is, and DC is his.

It could be a quality problem or just a problem. We need more then just an outside game. We need to get the ball into the post. Haywood has been awesome this year. Also, we need to start and get AB more involved. I just wish we would turn the corner on this issue already. I think AB is ready.

We have a ton of talent. We just have to play smart. We need to let different players take over at different times. It can't be shot whenever you want which is what GA has don't a lot of over his career. That said, I think he will return a more balanced player.

He need to do what MJ did back in the day. Start the game by force feeding your teammates. Then as the game goes on, you can take over if needed.

GA, CB, AJ, AB and BH is a tone of talent but the ball has to come out of the guards hands and make it to the post. We are a stronger team that way. Let the bigs bang. That's why they are bigs. Drive when needed.

If done right, we could be awesome.

Let me remind everyone. CB was #10 in the MVP hunt before we lost our only remaining PG.

What some of you are talking about is Fame. That isnt the same a superstar. At least not in my book. The Fame will come for CB. He doesn't seek it. And with GA sucking all the air out of the room with Gilbertology, CB just does his thing. Last year the press called him Mr Consistent, so he was recognized. This year he stepped it up in GA absence so more people are seeing what he can do and what he is all about.

GA has been tossing jerseys into the crowd for 3 years. GA looks for the spot light. Sure more people are going to know who he is.

But if today, I had to pick one to build a team around, I would pick TOUGH JUICE.

Lets make a record of your words Hands11 Buttler is better than Gil.

JUST SAY IT.

I know this is Buttlers team with out Gil for now. Care to make a bet on this one for next year? Who is better?

You can take the one with the slower step and less skills. Buttler I'll take Gil.

I like Macallen Scotch 18 year old, care to bet a bottel?

Hell yeah. I'll take some of that action. But this would be hard to qualify. Since CB is already the better player and you can't see it, what is going to make you see it next year.

I agree. We have both though, good thing we don't have to pick just 1.

CCJ, You know this is AJ team right now. Look at last year.

[gowiz999]

AJ, you aren't the only one on the court you know.

[fishercob]

you guys are all idiots. This is still -- and will always be -- Mike Ruffin's team.
