Shows up with $100K in a bag to challenge Nick Young shooting threes.
Then sinks 95 out of 100 ...

He's been out the league for 5 years plus and can still do that... its like riding a bike.

He made 45 of his last 46.

I miss Gilbert Arenas. What a character.

good shooting but it looks like he is shooting college 3 or perhaps even HS. looks to me like he is standing at the top of the original key.

Holy spit - that takes endurance and clutchness. Nick Young, pay the man. Just take it out of your GS playoffs money. There's no way you would have beaten him - even if you hadn't chickened out! Thank you Gilbert.

The most INSANE thing is him bringing a bag filled with $100k in CASH to the gym.

I miss him; but what a knucklehead ...

I always thought he had the easiest looking three in the league.

Next to Curry, I can’t really think of anyone with that kind of ‘barely hoisting’ range.

i always thought of him as a proto-harden.

Gilbert has a good podcast on youtube where he really went into depth about the Wizards years. It was very entertaining.

I might have to change my tagline. That's good stuff.

In Harden's rookie year, his beard looked like Gil's, and Harden looked like a bigger Gil. But Harden let the beard grow and grow and drew power from it. Then JRR Tolkein, from the Middle-Earth Zards, changed the story from Harden's beard to some precious rings, and the rest is history.

Story checks out.

If the Nats can put Jayson Werth in the ring of fame, then the Wizards need to retire #0. This team needs to invent history because its not coming anytime soon.

Possibly, I was referring to the ease is his shooting form. Klay just flicks the ball with no effort and still has great range.

Klay is definitely up there. I'm not exactly sure how I'd rank him, Curry, Harden and Gilbert. Curry is basically a video game with the various skill ratings cranked to the max. Harden often looks like he was busy doing something else and just shot it by accident but he does it over and over again so it must be on purpose. Klay looks like he's thinking about whether he's going to chill on the couch or in bed after the game while he just happens to be shooting for some odd reason. Gilbert feels like he's trying to either figure out how to take over the world somehow or plotting his next prank but as a secondary option he figures he may as well shoot the ball.
