Gilbert briefly mentions a book by Will Leitch of Deadspin in his latest blog:
Have you seen the new book that came out, God Save the Fan? Will Leitch came out with the book. Thank you Will Leitch! Got to give a shout out to Will Leitch and Deadspin for coming out with the book God Save the Fan. I’m just going to tell you guys to go get the book, because I’m in Chapter 2.
I picked it up today and immediately read the chapter about Gilbert and LeBron. It is definitely an interesting read and even if you don’t want to buy the book, you should at least read the Gilbert chapter (6 pages) at your local bookstore, if you get a chance.
Leitch’s last sentence in the chapter sums it up best:
… in twenty years, when we think of LeBron James, we will think of Gatorade, and when we think of Gilbert Arenas, we will smile and think of ourselves.

…in twenty years, when we think of LeBron James, we will think of one of the best players to ever play the game, and when we think of Gilbert Arenas, actually, we won’t think of Gilbert Arenas.
