Gilbert Lights You Up

Posted by JakeTheSnake on September 18th, 2007 in Articles

Michael Lee of Wizards Insider has a story about Gilbert’s game winning shenanigans during five-on-five practice at the Verizon Center:

Gilbert didn’t appear to be slowed down much by his left knee, which was covered with a black brace. He didn’t really try to burst toward the basket too much, settling for jumpers instead. He certainly hasn’t lost his ability to talk trash, though. He hit a game-winning jumper, then stared down the guy who was guarding him (one of those dudes I don’t know) and asked him, “Where’s my newspaper?” Somebody handed Arenas a magazine with his picture on the cover. “You know what this should say?” Arenas told the guy, pointing to his name on magazine. “Lights You Up.”

I guess that means that Earl Watson, Deron Williams, Charlie Bell, Andris Biedrins, Eric Snow, Kirk Hinrich and Tyson Chandler can add a new member to the club.
