Yes…..I cant wait until he comes back…if he comes back soon enough he will have 1 to 1 1/2 months before the playoffs so that he can get his SWAGGER back and his legs ready…imagine having him and Caron Coming back within the next TWO weeks….do you guys know how deep we would be…Thats like i wont be seeing O-PECH and maybe some Nick or Roger when he comes back….not to mention Etan…i am really beginning to appreciate our bench…this has really given them that time to show their valoue to the club…..

GO WIZ……

P.S. Get BACK ON THE COURT Soon Agent Zero…a.ka. Hibachi a.k.a “MY SWAG wAS PHENOMINAL

Uh oh! Here comes Agent Zero! Only one step closer to being cleared for playing – I can’t wait! I couldn’t see you out there against the Hornets, but I’ll see you soon along with these other die-hard fans. It’s been too long damnit!

I’m back from D.C. (unfortunately) because of classes, but I had so much fun. I was sitting with some season ticket holders that made me feel right at home, especially this one guy – he was craaazzzzzy! Pure entertainment; then the mascots!

very encouraging that he has been playing Nick after practice to brush up on his “defense”. Ok Now I’m excited.

There is no point guard quicker than Arenas. He has the size of a linebacker and knows how to use it. If he really concentrates on the defensive end and fits in with the “team” this could be our Year. We certainly have endured with a short handed team all season. I wouldn’t trade any player we have considering how all of them have contributed to us being where we are with so many inujuries. One game below 500 while playing 8, 9, or 10 players healthy. If we win it all we should get two trophys!

GIL

If your scared then say your scared just right before you go for the kill!
It’s a veteran play all day long and I use this reverse psychology myself
to look down and out but ready to spring back into action! I know you have
that something special just like Kobe and your buddy Lebron but better!
Agent Zero take your time and keep us in suspense! I love the show already!

Most important is a full recovery; that much is obvious. So, yes, take your time, Gilbert — but… hurry!!!

grifon — that’d be a tall, but not big, linebacker! But, yes, Arenas is a strong dude.

I have to say, however, that getting Caron back is even more important. I love Gil, but Caron is our best player.

^ Amen to that Tom. Caron is our best player, in my opinion. He is the heartbeat of this team. Don’t get me wrong – I really want to see Gil back as soon as possible. He will obviously give our offense a huge boost.

I’m looking forward to seeing Gil, Caron and AJ on the court at the same time. Now that is dangerous right there – for any team.

Etan too — he is a productive player, and we’ll be a better team when he is back.

Getting Caron back soon and 100% isn’t very likely. From everything I’ve read after the MRI all they are doing is letting him rest the hip. I’d feel a lot more comfortable if after the MRI exposed the cartilage tear the team orthopedist would have gone in with a scope to see exactly what they were looking at. To my knowledge this hasn’t been done, so at this point, all the doctors are doing is guessing. Is it a clean tear? Is it a jagged tear that will catch the bone and cause more damage? Who knows, but with the hip “locking up on him” I’m guessing it is catching the bone. Basketball is his career and I wish he would get a second opinion before someone clears him to play sight unseen.
