August 28th, 2007 Update on Gilbert Arenas

As many Wizards fans know, Gilbert Arenas goes down to Berry Farms once a summer to compete in the Goodman’s League. Arenas is often praised for going to a supposedly dangerous part of DC and playing for the fans. It’s always nice to see him interact with average people which he has done time and time again. This year he returns to Berry Farms with, teammate, DeShawn Stevenson to compete.

For many of us, this is the first look we’ve gotten of Agent Zero playing since the notorious knee injury. According to spectators, he is still not at 100% but is well on his way to getting back to full strength. The second video also clearly showed him struggling getting back into the physicality of the game. This is not horrible news however, he should be ready to play by the time the season begins but I expect him to be less aggresive and taking alot of perimiter jumpers in the early parts of the season.

In an update to his blog, Gilbert Arenas reveals alot about what he’s been up to the last couple of weeks. He discusses a new contest on his website with a stunning reward, some very interesting and un-expected news about his new shoe, a friendly feud between him and Richard Jefferson which started back when they were both attending Arizona, the Wizards addition of Dave Hopla, and his shock and sorrow towards the death of Eddie Griffin. He also, sadly, informs his readers that the quest for 100,000 shots will never be reached because of tendonitis. All in all, Arenas is still his same old joking self.
