Gilbert has little love for RJIt’s no secret that these two aren’t best friends. Last summer, Gilbert Arenas came after Richard Jefferson in a philanthropic pissing contest, saying that the $3.5 million RJ donated to the Arizona gym was ’selfish.’ Gil proceeded to call Jefferson the fourth-best Arizona alum in the League, saying “The R-Jeff market is in recession.”
Now while Jefferson is house-hunting in Milwaukee, Gil is coming back from a tour of Asia where he was the single most popular human being on the entire continent. And Gil isn’t above rubbing it in a little bit.
Richard Jefferson going to Milwaukee …. HAHAHA! Oh man, now that is funny. When I heard that, I started laughing. Oh man, did I start laughing. You know why? Because every player hates Milwaukee. Nobody wants to live in Milwaukee. I’m sorry, Milwaukee, to come down hard on you, but no one in the NBA wants to play in Milwaukee. From him going from New Jersey, actually from New York (because he lives in New York), from New York to Milwaukee is like going … let’s just say it’s not going to sit well with you. That was a funny one when I heard that one. I know Yi is happy though.

That’s f*cked up. LOL!!! Arenas is off the chain!! LOL!!
He right though. I think they still lynch people in Milwaukee? LOL!!!
On the real though, one of the illest hoopers I ever met was outta Milwaukee, dude was a complete MONSTER! D1 potential all day, dude just liked them chicks too much.
He said there wasn’t no b*tches in Milwaukee and we def didn’t have none in KCMO, so they must really be hurtin out there.
RJ better become a hardcore muslim celibate or something, he bout to experience that drought in femaless wuakee land.

Gilbert talks too much, now he has another city BOOing his ***
Maybe RJ should talk about how “Agent Zero” can’t complete missions with his gimpy knee. Looking at both rosters, Milwaukee just seems to have more with Jefferson, bogut, Mo, and Redd. Maybe RJ will have the last laugh

Arenas can be funny sometimes, but this isn’t one of them. It’s purely mean-spirited motive. Hater central. I’ve always thought Gil was entertaining, but this is pure hate and should not be applauded. Dude is way too full of himself and it’s digusting.

Interesting Sprewell does not have a problem still living in Wisconsin. (Than again with the cheap housing in Wisconsin maybe that’s the only way he can feed his kids.)

@Blaze McHerbs — Actually, Caron lives in Racine for a lot of the offseason. He makes a point to go back and be a real-life example to the kids there that they can make it.

The thing about Gil is that he’s everyman. He says what we’d be saying. I love that he’s so honest about what he thinks, because it seems like with the money and the fame of the pros you lose your ability to be a cool interview.
“We’ll just take it one game at a time…”
Oh, seriously? Cuz I thought you’d take all 82 all at one time…
Thank god dudes like Agent Zero exist, else the league would have ZERO in the way of personality. Especially now that everyone is back on the Kobe-loving-Shaq-hating-so-nothing-Shaq-does-is-funny trip.

Agent Zero is your hero and you just don’t know it. In the age of athletes running everything by their agents and pr departments before they say it, I love someone that just lets it fly. He isn’t concerned about endorsement deals or a bland public persona. Dude’s funny, get over it. I know some folks from Milwaukee, they say it sucks.

While Gil is laughing and hanging out in Asia eating that good Chinese food, he better get back to work and hope that his knee is right. As we all know, last year the joke was on him as he missed most of the season becuase of that injured knee. That being said, how the hell did he bamboozle the Wiz into giving him 111 million when they don’t know for sure how his knee is going to respond to an entire NBA season. Can you imagine if that knee that went thru 2 surgeries prevents him from being the assassin he once was. He might catch a murder charge because he definitely is going to be the reason for the death of Abe Pollen the Wizards Owner who signs those checks. Make no mistake about it, I ain’t mad at Gil, however if this new Gil does not resemble the old one, I am personally calling the Feds because he will be officially embezzling money. Fellas can I get an AMEN.

Both of em are both b—hes. Gil, you keep running your mouth like a 2 cent ho, you will get smacked the f–k up. Gil, you just another no-talent hack who can play bball for a living but other than that, aint worth s–t. Period. Save the drama for your momma and go back to sucking your homeboys d–ks.

you are amazing sir. post #39 is PMSing right now.
im glad we have players like him who ACT LIKE A NORMAL HUMAN BEING like he’s not in the NBA. hes just makin jokes n he knows that. hes not THAT stupid to rip on miluakee unless he was drunk n high [i doubt] but still ITS A JUST A JOKE PPL CALM THE FUCK DOWN.
as i was sayin earlier. Arenas is a class act. i bet u if u ALL were in the NBA! n u were OFFFEREDD A MAX DEAL! [127 mill] YOU ALL WOULD TAKE IT JUST LIKE THAT!. n he gave back 16 mill. i mean 111 mill is still alot but its what the thought that counts. THINKK you ppl. its just like ur wife gave you a crappy bracelet. n u dont like it. thats the thought that counts about it.
Anyways these ppl r hatin on you. Zero 2 Hero
