INDIANAPOLIS | So this is what it was like, huh? Gilbert Arenas found himself thinking that Friday night after a 102-86 loss to the Indiana Pacers. He finally realized how Antawn Jamison and Caron Butler felt during the Washington Wizards' 19-63 season a year ago.

It's only the sixth game of the season and it looks like Flip Saunders may be running out of ideas.
The Wizards head coach addressed the criticisms of the past games. Critics said Caron Butler had to get more aggressive offensively, and the former all-star put up 24-12. The Wizards bigmen got into foul trouble early in the teams last two losses, but tonight Haywood played...

Gilbert Arenas knocked down a 20-foot jumper in Steve Nash's face late in the first quarter and brought back his old Hibachi move. Palms up, he waved his hands back and forth as if warming them on an imaginary grill, then he ran back down the Verizon Center floor Sunday.

The Wizards already are immersed in self-doubt. They are out of sync and out of sorts, found wanting in purpose and cohesiveness. They are not a pretty sight, whether it is Caron Butler missing three shots at the rim or Randy Foye, inexplicably, making an ill-advised move to the basket before halftime that allowed the Suns enough time to sink a 3-pointer. The latter prompted assistant...
