Welcome Back, Gil
by Marcel Mutoni / @marcel_mutoni
All told, there weren’t too many surprises last night: The Lakers beat their next-door neighbors with relative ease, Shaq and the LeBronnaires struggled to find their groove against Boston’s cagey vets, and Houston was awful as expected.
In Washington, though, the story was slightly different. Gilbert Arenas loudly announced his return...
Guest Post: Staring Down a Champion
Beneath all the humor, the blog and the video games; beneath the countless nicknames, the jokes and quotes; lay a slumbering assassin, an assassin who seems to have finally awoken to his alarm blaring after two seasons devoid of basketball.
Everyone is piling on Gilbert Arenas for his newfound silence with the press, and, to an extent, rightly so. He is a professional basketball...
Tom Knott: Powerful opening statement for Wizards
That was Gilbert Arenas slicing through the defense of the Mavericks, hitting jumpers, finding teammates, picking his spots. That was the Wizards exercising their newfound familiarity with the defensive end of the floor. No one anticipated Wizards 102, Mavericks 91 in the season opener. No one anticipated the Wizards dispatching a highly competent team on the road, a team that wins...

Oberto, Foye add balance to Wizards
DALLAS | As coach Flip Saunders said Tuesday night, Gilbert Arenas "did his talking on the court." Arenas, who was reluctant to speak to the media in the preseason, fielded questions from reporters after the game but was not interested in talking about himself. When asked about his performance - 29 points and nine assists in the Washington Wizards' 102-91 season-opening...
