sure his dad was a former player of high regard in the italian leagues, but I fail to see how people could view he never earned anything when atheletic ability is never anything just given to someone, but earned through a lot of work. If he was a rich kid like the hilton's who have done nothing to earn their position in life other than to have been born, then I could understand that point of view. but as all of us who have followed professional sports for a while know, genetics never promises great atheletic ability ie Jared Payton, Eli Manning, among others.
Arenas is a damn good player even though he should have made atleast one of those damn free throws last year against cleveland. He has one of the smoothest jumpshot I've seen in a while.
