    Yes, States boy ..I will give you one..he is not a winner yet

    and i will give you another: Allen Iverson is better

    are you mad at me because of that?
    no im not. much love for ai. but lets talk about this year. and this year.... i give it to arenas just cause his team made the playoffs and ai's didn't. gonna take alot to convince me otherwise. the man was a beast in this series despite a good defender(larry hughes) all in his face.

    id put arenas in the 6th spot among top 10 nba players right now.

      And yes the Lebron quote was LAME.
      Lebron in general is pretty lame off the court.

        Ok, now that I'm mentally able to not post like a dummy:

        - I love Amon Jones
        - I love Donyell Marshall
        - I love LeBron James
        - Gilbert Arenas is at least a top 10 player to me
        - If the Wizards can get a good big man, I would be even more afraid of them
        - College cops are very understanding and are able to look past certain things b/c of the Cavs.

        I'm sorry Wiz fans, but I can't help myself:

          Well, if he's 'not a winner yet', then Iverson's 'not a winner anymore'. Washington's had a whole lot more success over the last few years than Philly has. I wouldn't take Iverson over Arenas anymore.

            Hey guys, Arenas is a great, great player. I've got a lot of respect for him, but why you wanna compare the 2 just on the basis of this season? Look at AI..he did so much in this league in ten years and people still do not respect him.
            Why? due to overused and old statements like " he is a selfish, ballhogging player who shoots too much ". He won a lot, went to the finals. He is not a winner because he did not win in the finals? I think it is a great accomplishment for every player even to get there.

              Lebron sure is clutch when he's taking 3 step layups.

                I agree....imagine if he had Arenas' personality....he would be GOD in the eyes of David Stern.

                  That was 5 years ago.

                    Way to make a happy medium. His first layup winner was 4 steps, and the 2nd one was 2 steps

                      So this means that Arenes is better, because his team had more sucess this year? give me a break..I don't buy it ..

                      You do not judge players on the basis of 2 or 3 seasons..you should know that

                        You judge players on how good they are NOW, not 5 years ago. Iverson going to the finals in 2001 is irrelevant.

                          No, you are wrong. You judge players on their careers overall.

                          If you think Iverson's skills have deteriorated you are wrong again.

                            Why do you base all this on team success? Teams have 7-10 players who play every night.....not just one person. Basketball is a team sport.

                                No one is saying Arenas has had a better career, so you can kill that argument. I'm saying Arenas is arguably a better player TODAY than Iverson is. You're the one that came with that "he's not a winner" garbage.

                                And if you think Iverson is the same player today he was 5 years ago, then YOU are wrong.
