It was a risk I'm sure the front office was aware of. A lot of us questioned the "contract" given the knee hasn't been good in almost 2 years now. It is what it is unfortunately. I still believe that if the young guys really show us something this year we could still make a very deep run. Glass half full = Gilbert comes back strong this season or next.

That's a shame. Your talking almost 1/3 of your cap space going to a guy who most likely will never be 100%. That’s a shame.

That was in the "Wes" era. In the Ernie era we have a much deeper team than in those days. We did pretty ok without Gilbert last year. If a couple of our young guys and a few second, third, and Fourth (ANDRE lol) year players step it up a notch we will still be a pretty fair team. Fair enough to possibly contend for the East crown.

I saw Juwan's contract kill the wizards for so many years and this could do the same. Gilbert’s signing could be the worst Bullets/Wizards contract since Juwan Howard.

Honestly, why would he have stayed? To hear the exact same questions 47 times? I think it was probably worth the $15k to duck out. To Media: Leave Gil alone. If he said he might be back in December then ask him again in December. What is the point in harassing him? ^Interesting read.

I'm with Tom on Nick's weight. He's a very much a finesse player. Of course more strength can help him, but that's down the line. Etan looked massive, I love it. Bang man, bang!. He's gonna give us some nice options at center. As we get closer it gets more exciting. It's really great to hear that everyone is doing good. Go Wiz. Can't wait for some quotes.
