Stupid. Now that he was playing well. I had lots of fun watching him last night vs the 76ers.
The suspension? Or Arenas's handling of the situation?
I think the suspension is warranted given that Arenas wouldn't do the smart thing and just bunker down like Delonte has and play.
The suspension. Fine him, take away 99.9% of his annual salary, but allow the fans to watch the best players playing. What was Arenas supposed to do, what has Delonte done differently?
thats what Gilbert did before the game last night. Delonte came to work, shut his mouth, apologized, and did his job.
what Gilbert did and said last night was the equivalent of Delonte coming out with a guitar case strapped to his back when his name is called in the starting lineup.
as far as letting him play, who cares, he hasnt earned the right to play anymore. Letting him still play, paid or not, and be in front of the cameras will do nothing but inflate his ego and self entitlement.
I'm all for taking his money away, but like I said in my other response, if I was Stern I'd make the Wizards stay on the hook for his contract even if they tell Gilbert to take a hike, make them donate the remainder of his contract to charity. Teams need to start thinking twice before they start throwing clowns like Arenas all this money.
