    With Etan Thomas and Gilbert Arenas back, are the wiz a fav in the east?

    they have swept Dallas and they recent beat the Celts twice in a row without these guys, are the Wizards one of the best 2 teams in the east at 100%?

    Arenas is the weak spot of Wash

    When he does not play they are much better

    Ball hogs don't win in the nba

    perhaps he can buy into their system now. no doubt that hes a ball hog, but hes also one of the most talented 10 players in the league.

    Not only are they not the favorites, but they are actually the third choice behind Boston & Detroit. Don't let the recent sweep of Boston fool you, the Celtics would still handle them in a best of seven.

    I saw a headline saying Etan had a press conference. Had to open it to find out why Etan would be...having a press conference. I thought he was going into politics or something

    The East is a two-team conference, and the Wiz aren't one of the two.

    I see the possibility of them stepping up if Arenas remembers its a team effort

    If Arenas is truly back the Wizards will win it all. No other team will have such an incredible starting line up. Their bench is bad, though.

    and oh yea, I don't think wiz have a chance to go far, Arenas dominates the ball too much now, you will see the decline of overall team points quickly.

    Damn you seem pretty confident in your Wizards... I checked out NBA Futures because I was curious and found this...


    Odds to win NBA Championship: Wizards +5,000 (Betjam)


    Odds to win NBA EAST: 25/1 (Bodog)


    I see tons of value for you in the NBA Championship... If you truly believe they can win the East then putting some money down to win the whole thing at +5,000 would be worth a shot for you. I personally think they have no shot whatsoever to win the East. Just my .02

    why get +5000 to win it all when i could get 100:1 on winning the east with 5 star bomb.

    They can't catch Orlando to win the division. Once/if they do that, MAYBE we can talk about the east.
