Around the Internets



  1. Gilbert Arenas talks about the Shaq trade, the Gasol trade and shaving.

  2. Oliver Willis on Mark Penn's political acrobatics.

  3. Ivan Carter has a funny story that explains how far rookies like Nick young have to go:


As for Nick, the biggest mistake he's made recently was touting his status as USC's second all-time leading scorer. (According to the Wiz media guide, Nick is the school's sixth all-time leading scorer so maybe I miss heard him or he was just messing with the boys. Either way, it made for a funny exchange.) He let that go before the game in Philly the other night in front of Arenas, Jamison and Butler. Big mistake.


Jamison: "Second all-time scorer? That would mean something if the top guy was Michael Jordan or something but USC? I mean, who is the leading scorer?"


Nick (already in trouble): "Harold Miner."


The reaction was fast and furious.


Arenas: laughter.


Jamison: "Harold Miner? What's he doing now?"


Butler, with a very straight face: "I can't believe those words just came out of your mouth. Let me give you some advice: don't ever say that (stuff) again."


As this was going on, I made eye contact with Young's ace, McGuire, who just shook his head and kept his mouth shut. "I just leaves those dudes alone," McGuire said. "You can't win."
