Did Arenas ever play for a team that won a playoff series?
Yes
I will never forget the Wizards beating the Bulls in 2005 and having T Shirts made for getting to round 2 :mjlol:

Damn I wish I had a picture of that


Edit - I found it!!!!!

I honestly thought this was lost to history cause it's not easy to find games of this period on YouTube anymore and if you do they don't have the post game stuff
Only Round 2 t shirts I've ever seen :heh:

If you're curious what the shirt says, it says "One Team. One Goal. Beat the Heat" with Round 2 in the center :laff:

A lot of players (and fans for that matter) overrate 1 on 1 ability so much that they come up with new ways to sound dumb

Defense? Doesn't matter

Rebounding? Doesn't matter

Playmaking for others? Doesn't matter

I'm so tired of dudes acting like just because you can't do a million different fancy dribbles with the ball, tween tween, then spin around for a tough midrange fadeway it means you don't understand ball. shyt's so backwards. Giannis Antetokounmpo is a winning player, period. He's gotten better every year and he just finished 2nd in the league in scoring last season. 2x MVP, DPOY, and Finals MVP but he doesn't understand basketball? Make it make sense.

A man who can put up a 50 piece bucket and fries in a closeout NBA finals game to become finals MVP and bring a chip to the city of Milwaukee for the first time since 1905 after signing a contract extension with them instead of p*ssying out joining and creating a superteam can't be classified as a man that can't be better
