WASHINGTON, D.C. – Dec. 17, 2006-Jan. 17, 2007. Exactly one month. Over those 31 days and 32 nights, Gilbert Arenas put on shows we haven't seen in the NBA in a long time, if ever.

Sixteen games. In those 16 were two 50-plus games (54 on Phoenix, 51 on Utah), one 60-point joint, seven other games in which he dropped 30-plus, a 35 with 12 assists against the Clippers, and two walk-off games when his 3s at the buzzer sent everyone home for the night.

Gilbert Arenas -- the man everyone is talking about right now.
On Jan. 4, I got this text message: "Gilbert Arenas is doing some of the sickest #@$% in the league right now since Mike!"

Scoop does this stuff all the time. He'll write some truly horrible articles and just when you're ready to give up on him for good, he'll whip out a gem. Of course I'm biased cause it's Arenas, but aside from that, its a really well written article.

I dont really like him as a person and his writing usually doesnt interest me

I think Jackson's writing is terrible but I also think he's the only guy in the mainstream media that has put Arenas' recent stretch in its proper perspective.

I'm sorry but Dirk and Nash are top 2 MVP candidates, then Arenas.

Agreed. Great read though.

What's up with Scoops teeth? I saw him on Quite Frankly the other day and one second it looks like he has no teeth and the next second he does have teeth. Anyone else ever notice that?

Sorry, for getting off topic. That's just been bugging me.

Did you read that ESPN Insider article calling Gil the best combo guard in the nba?

[MonkFan8]

Good article. I had issues with alot of Scoop's writing, but I think this one is right on the money.

Just read it, great read....never know what you're gonna get from one of Scoop's articles

Sometimes, Jackson uses so much slang, that it's hard to read his columns. And I'm black!
