How do you think Gilbert's career would have played out if he never go hurt. Obviously the Wiz wouldnt have been sorry enough to draft Wall but would they have made it to contender status or would they have traded Gilbert by now. The dude had his faults but he could put the ball in the basket at an elite level like not many others. So where would he be at now in his careers without the knee injuries.
If Arenas never got hurt?
- Thread starter Reggie
- Start date
He was great at getting to the basket but he wasn't a particularly good shooter.
An injury was bound to happen to him some way or another.
Still, he was effectively finished at like 28 and that was young.
With a bit more luck, you gotta think he plays at least through 32 years old..maybe a bit more.

If Arenas never got hurt, he still would have brought guns to the locker room in December 2009.
And then the Wiz would have still blown it up in 2009-10 and got into the lottery.

Injury or no injury Arenas was still a nut. He was on a path to self destruction regardless.
He was a dominant player in '06, so if he kept that up for a few more years I'm sure we'd be talking about him like a legend of his era.
Gil was favored by analytics though. Very efficient scorer in his peak & his impact was on the Wiz offense was measurably elite.

Harden reminds me of Gil because of the drives to the rim

at that time pass first pgs were the wave..everyone described gil as an undersized shooting guard..
Dude was a joy to watch. could put up 30 like it was nothing, also he did those ridiculous jumpers from long range like curry does. In some ways he was curry before curry
