Posted by JakeTheSnake on June 25th, 2008

In his first two years in the league, Gilbert made a name for himself in Golden State as he paired with Jason Richardson to form one of the most electrifying backcourt duos in the NBA.  In their two years together, they had lots of high-flying dunks, but this one will probably be the most remembered:

Certainly, that dunk will go down as the best dunk from that combo, but I think that this dunk that isn’t mentioned nearly as often is worthy of the number 2 spot:

This video comes from NBA Fit, which does features on the workout regimens of different NBA Players, including Gilbert Arenas, who they focus on for the first three and a half minutes of this clip.  All the footage comes from last off-season, where he was coming off of knee surgery and was still on the quest to make 100,000 shots in 73 days.
