Wizards Offseason

Alright so the Wizards drafted a 7 foot foward Javale McGee from Nevada, who should probably play center for us.  They also signed Antawn Jamison to a 4 year extension, who has been the most consistent player on the team as far as health and performance.  He's coming off his best season in the NBA at the age of 32.  

 

Now they Wiz are trying to resign Gilbert Arenas.  They offered Arenas a 6 year deal worth $127 million, a max deal that Arenas wanted.  He also got a max deal from his first team, Golden State, who just lost Baron Davis to the Clippers, for 5 years $101 million.  Now Arenas said he wants to stay in DC, especially if Jamison stayed, because they have played together almost all of Arenas's career.  Now that Jamison is staying and they offered Arenas the max deal, he should definitely come back.  I know a lot of people have been hating on him because of his "ball-stopping" and knee injuries, but come on now.  Healthy he put up 28.4 points per game, 4th in the league.  He is our best scorer and when we had a healthy team, we were 1st in the East.  We've already proven we can beat Boston, the champs.  Now we have 3 all-stars on our team, why would you want to lose one to rack up more assists?  He needs to stay and should.

One last free agent is Roger Mason Jr., the local.  Yes he was a good scorer towards the end of the season, but I think we should try harder on James Posey, even though that isn't likely.  If we can't find a better backup PG, then go ahead and resign Mason.
