Arenas Says He Will Opt Out Of Deal In '08
10th June, 2007 - 12:29 am
Washington Post -

Washington Wizards guard Gilbert Arenas said last night that he will opt out of his contract after next season and become a free agent.

Arenas, who signed a six-year, $65 million contract in the summer of 2003, said his decision is based on family and business concerns rather than feelings about the direction in which the Wizards are headed as an organization.

"To me, it's just a smarter business decision to play next season, opt out and then be able to sign a long-term deal that is going to keep me in one place," said Arenas, who is recovering from left knee surgery and expects to be at full speed in time for training camp in October. "I'm not looking at anything else. It's just business. If something happens where they don't want me or they're going in a different direction, I can look elsewhere. But my intentions are not to leave."

Arenas also said he does not plan on hiring an agent. He parted ways with agent Dan Fegan last summer.

"I don't need an agent," Arenas said. "I can do all of this research myself."

I don't need an agent? Famous last words?

Ok so how does Francis, and craw for arenas and etan Thomas sound?

Francis can play in front of his Nana.

It would be cool to have a guy like arenas, but would he make the knicks better in the type of trade I mentioned?
