Arenas done for the season

Gilbert Arenas and teammate Javaris Crittenton is suspended for the rest of the season by NBA commissioner David Stern.

According to Chris Sheridan from ESPN, if Gilbert received extensive jail time from the guilty plead a few weeks ago, the Wizards will have grounds to void the remaining of his contract. Sheridan also said that if Gilbert receives lighter sentence, the Wizards can try to void his contract or to trade him but it would be difficult since Gilbert has 4 years plus the tremendous amount that ties with it.

If Gilbert is traded, what team do you think he might land? Could there be a swap between Golden State and Washington? Monta Ellis for Gilbert Arenas? Maybe throw in Brendon Wright or Anthony Randolph? I hope he comes back to the Bay Area.

Arenas will soon learn his fate

According to NBC Sports, Gilbert will learn from NBA commissioner David Stern how long his "indefinite" suspension will be by the end of the week. It is unknown at this point if the Wizards are still looking to void Gilbert's contract. And in regards to the other player that was involved, Javaris Crittenton, he will also have closure next week.

The D.A. have indicated that they will not seek more than six months in jail but the judge can order the star player anywhere between probation to the maximum term of five years in jail.

At least Gilbert can relax after next week when he finds out what his punishment is from the God of Basketball. After that, Gilbert will have time to prepare mentally for his return and also prepare himself for the worst case scenario when March 26th rolls around.

Until then, let's go back to Gilbert's earlier years when he was with Golden State.
