a lineup of Wall/Young/Lewis/Blatche/McGee sounds pretty athletic

Lewis hasn't been athletic for a long time now.

@Chris_Broussard: Wiz deal w/Orlando is close and will be Rashard Lewis for Gilbert Arenas straight up, sources say ... no big to ORL

[No Excuses]

Phoenix molests Orlando in their trade and of course Grunfeld gets molested in his. Shart for Gilbert straight up?? Not even a first round pick??? ****ing Ernie.

I am going to throw up. Seriously.

[G.A.C.O.L.B.]

Ok well good luck to the amazing Jameer coming off the bench.

And you aren't getting 'Melo. Not in a million years. Stop setting yourself up to be disappointed.

We've made the Finals without him, and have made the Eastern finals twice now without him. I don't think it's a huge deal.

I certainly don't want to give away the farm for him.

The chances of a Wiz/Orlando deal have just dropped significantly.

Character concerns with Arenas have caused a snag, Orlando sources are claiming.

It appears you will keep him.

[G.A.C.O.L.B.]

Character concerns, aka we want a big.

[No Excuses]

Character concerns? lol no one in the league knows Gilbert better than Otis Smith. Both of them have a father-son relationship. Otis knows Gilbert is a good dude.

Hoopsworld and Woj from Yahoo are reporting that the trade is done. Straight up swap of Lewis for Arenas.

I am at a loss of words. This is going to be one of the most lopsided trades ever.

Lewis is in the top 5 of my least liked players in the league. I genuinely hope he never suites up for the Wizards. Probably wouldn't watch a game if he does.

I honestly can't believe that we were dumb enough to trade Gil to a division rival.

I would have been fine with a Carter/Arenas swap, but this makes me sick to my ****ing stomach.

Guns in the locker room will do that to a player.

Why would he be in your top 5 most hated?

You may think he sucks.....but he's not an ass like Lebron, KG....etc.

[No Excuses]

Trade is done. We just got ass ****ed. **** Ernie and **** Rashard Lewis.

[stevemcqueen1]

Did anyone see Josh Selby's debut? The kid is phenomenal. He's going to be a star some day. Why can't he be three inches taller? He'd be the perfect 2 guard for us if he was. Ugh.

I'm still not seeing it anywhere but that one site.

And I still believe you underestimate Rashard.

[BRAVEONAWARPATH]

And now its been reported that Gil is willing to change his player option to a team option.

So in other words, Orlando might be able to get out Gil's contract after next season if they so choose.

I'm ****ing speechless

I'm not underestimating anyone. Lewis is one hell of a player when he has steroids being injected into his butt. He hasn't done **** ever since.

[DarrellsMyHero28]

And the front offices of DC sports continue to be a complete and total joke.

Come on Ted, Grunfeld has to go.

[McD5]

Vishal, he didn't use steriods. He isn't even muscular.

They found something in his system that is used in 70% of all drinks at Planet Smoothie. You may have it in your system right now.

Vince coming to Orlando is what threw him off.
