Gilbert has finally updated his blog in which among other topics, he fills us in on his rehab, the NBA Draft, and his new Adidas shoes, the Gil 20’s.

On his rehab progress:

I’m feeling 50 percent better. I’m halfway there, halfway back to Agent Zero. I’m just “Agent” right now.

On his trainer:

I had to fire him and kick him to the curb. We’re beefin’ right now. You know, I’ve never done this before. Me and trainers, it’s usually just like, “OK, get my ice.” So all these drills he’s telling me to do, for some reason I just think they’re stupid. So I just fired him.

On Portland drafting Kevin Durant:

You have Aldridge, who is a young five. You have Zebo. You don’t have a three, I mean a real solid three. I mean you have Ime Udoka at the three, but he’s a defensive player. You get Durant at three, you have the Rookie of the Year at the two and you have a young one in Jack. Hey, two or three years from now, that might be good!

On Portland drafting Greg Oden:

But, at the end of the day, thinking about it, having another 7-footer coming off the bench ain’t too bad. That ain’t to shabby. I mean, that could be like Alonzo and Shaq in the future.

On what the Wizard’s need in the draft:

I want an aggressive scorer. We don’t have a scorer coming off the bench. We don’t have somebody who is aggressive whose mindset is shoot-first coming off.

On his next shoe, the Adidas Gil 20’s:

“What does 20 have to do with Gil?” That’s how many different versions are going to come out. I’m not doing one release date. It’s not going to just be, “Oh, it releases January 2nd.” Every city I play in, whatever color I wear, that’s going to be released in only that city.
