| Quote: |
That is the ultimatum that Arenas has given the Washington Wizards.
"If he doesn't come back, I'm not coming back," Arenas said Wednesday in a posting on his blog.
Jamison is a free agent and Arenas can opt out of his contract, and the duo have been teammates in Washington for the past four seasons following the pair playing together in Golden State for two seasons before Arenas left via free agency.
"I want to be back in Washington, but weird things happen in free agency," Arenas said on the blog. "If Antawn is not back, then there's no point in me coming back because he's part of my success, too." |

Well, it's a 70% chance that Gil will be leaving then. _________________ "The best way to understand the future is to learn about the past." |

How come every single announcer calls him
AnTWAN?? Like they refuse to get it right.
Am I incorrect in thinking it is pronounced "an-tahn" ?? |

| I'm pretty sure it's pronounced like "Antoine." The Wikipedia article says the same. I think it's kind of like how you'd expect "Favre" to be pronounced "Fahv-ruh," but it's not. |

| His Washington career rests on Jamison? That's almost like Kobe saying he wouldn't come back if Lamar wasn't here. |

I think he is only saying that because he wants to get paid. _________________ The Kwame Brown Song - credit: kidvideo

Kwame Brown, really? To tell you the truth, I'd rather have DJ Mbenga, some may not agree though.
Do you guys think that Gil would take a paycut to play in L.A.? |
