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.

He learned a lesson about icewater in the veins there, I think (hope). You could see it in his bizarre struggles in November this year, that when he gets worried about being the hero instead of just going out there knowing he's going to handle his business, he can be psyched out. Not that uncommon for a young guy. And people forget how young he is.

What's scary is he maybe hasn't even hit his prime yet.

hey, he had 8 dimes last night... to go along 11 boards. that's a sick stat line for a primary scorer... remember, his job isn't to be a j-kidd-like point guard. he gets enough assists to keep everyone happy.

Hibachi!

I just went to the game last night against the Bulls and we rocked it without Arenas playing well. Stevenson looked really good that game, and I hope he can step it up when one of the Big Three are not playing well. We really need that.

Not only that but with Etan coming back and Blatche stepping up, the bench just got much deeper. Plus they're still waiting on Songaila to get healthy......this team can only get better.
