Guys might go down with injury and both of these guys could be gone if that were to happen further along. You can always just cut Gil if it doesn't work out.

Bibby by a mile.


Come on that was an aberration... he had never did anything remotely close to that prior.

The gun charge is an aberration for Arenas. Being an idiot is not.

The talent no longer outweighs the headache with him.

We can just cut him... somebody is going to give him another shot. He's either going to work or not and if he doesn't he's going to get cut and it'll probably be the last straw but after seeing that backcourt we trotted out today I would think we just take a look... just a look. We have three strong personalities that I think can keep anyone in line. My concern is him physically not his attitude.

d'antoni isn't a strong personality like rex ryan, which means he wouldn't waste his time putting in a word for him with his job on the line.

Arenas has never played defense, and now he couldn't if he wanted to.

And what does that have to do with Bibby being the better PG of the two?

Either one would be better than TD. I don't even think TD will even be in the league after next summer.

Now we've crossed over into the ridiculous. TD is an NBA player. He's just not a PG in any sense of the word.

Dude, you're such a little hypocrite at times. You want Baron Davis on the Knicks, a well known gang member who's always been affiliated with the bloods, but you judge Gilbert Arenas for having a gun for protection of his life? Yeah, I'm sure a gang sign throwing Baron Davis never packed heat before. The dude is from L.A, I bet he's done alot worse than just carry a gun before making it to the NBA. But yeah, none of that matters to me in regards to Baron Davis or Gilbert Arenas, because I don't live with these men. If they can become great teammates and help the team, that's all that matters. If they act up, they get cut. It's as simple as that. But lets not sit here and attack Gilbert for having a gun to protect himself at all times, but then, on the other hand, BEG for a gang banging Baron Davis. Why not throw Baron Davis under the bus for throwing up the blood sign? Some role model for these kids watching NBA games huh?
