Gilbert Arenas
“He’s on this particular list because of his numerous forced shots, his inability to run an offense and his miserable lack of both on- and off-the-ball defense. Also, don’t forget the many times he’s choked in the deciding moments of playoff games. Arenas’ game is less than meets the eye.”

Dear Charley,

It is you who are the overrated blowhard. Wait, you have to be rated at all in order to be overrated. You are an idiot. Gilbert is a top five player in this league. He happened to sign a contract after a tough injury, and you call that overrated. I wonder if you watched any games where he was healthy.

Now go back to your lame-ass column nobody reads.

Yours,
Unselds

Love how he talks about how Arenas chokes in the playoffs. Apparently, one time is enough to make a blanket statement on him. He must have forgotten the shot he hit to sink the Bulls, or the 40-foot three he hit in the same game he missed the free throws to tie the game.

His criticisms of the other players are similarly ridiculous. For example:
-Kevin Garnett is a frontrunner. Right.
-Chris Paul can’t go left. Come again?
-Carlos Boozer can’t run.
-Chris Bosh registers more turnovers than assists … except he hasn’t actually finished a season with more TOs than assists since 2005.
-Chris Paul’s defense consists of mostly steals, which only happen when his opponent messes up? Perhaps Paul causes them to mess up, ever considered that?
-Chris Paul can be easily doubled … so why couldn’t Dallas and San Antonio get away with that in the 08 playoffs?
-Paul’s opponents go to their favorite spot and shoot over him … when?

I wonder whether he has an editor that actually checks his stuff.

Knowing him, whatever negatives are said in the article, Gil will turn them around….

Maybe we’d see a Gilbert Arenas that takes NO forced shots (except at the end of the 24-second shot clock), runs a highly efficient Offense, and hits a ton of end-of quarter, end-of-half, and game-winning shots….

Hey, wait a minute – Isn’t that the Gilbert Arenas we saw in his last healthy season?

Charley Rosen completely discredited himself by including Kwame Brown in his " Most Underrated " list.

Yeah – A number 1 pick, that failed miserably in Washington, Los Angeles and now in Detroit…. sure, he’s underrated… (sarcasm key=On) Really good players (who are underrated) usually play 17 minutes a game… Head Coaches like to hide those underrated players on the bench for most of the game. ALL Underrated Centers have hands the size of an 8-year old girl. (sarcasm key=Off).

Only Kwame Brown could be so “underrated” , as to be overrated. Rosen has completely overrated Kwame Brown’s underrated -ness. (Cogitate on that for a while…. your head will start to spin)

So Rosen has said:
Garnett, Bosh and Chris Paul are all overrated, and Kwame Brown is underrated -

That would make a great punch line to a joke……..If I could just think of one…

I guess Charley Rosen is the joke…..
