I saw the comment & didn’t get it until I watched the entire video lol. He was actually traded to Orlando for Rashard Lewis.
😆😆😆😆😆
I used to live in DC from 1997-2011. My dad was a diplomat from Thailand. I still remember all of these Wizards’ memories and I am still their fan now. Go Wizards and cheer from Bangkok!
Nostalgic man!

how the san antonio spurs went from champions to a rebuilding franchice
Maybe in future video
they were contenders with kawhi, then he wanted out and got traded for derozan, a non playoff performer
Noted man
Solid. Might have splice in more media coverage for the effect
True
Hey Jay, love the content! Please do a Spurs rebuild from dynasty to Wemby, similar to the Heat rebuild (2014-2023)!
Sure will do man!
Gilbert Arenas was one hell of a scorer once he went to Washington
No doubt man
Agent 0 aka Hibachi
Can you one on how reggie miller and the pacers had three different peaks where they each made at least the conference finals? They had so many epic battles in the playoffs with young shaq, ewing, jordan, iverson
Sure man. Thanks for these ideas
Amazing video bro Nothing new
Can you make video about chris webber
Sure man
3:57 I remember Gill's massive scoring binges on those Wizard teams but legit never knew he could windmill.
He could dunk. So underrated
Same bro 😲
Great video!But there is a little mistake of name at the end.
Sorry for the mistake
Gilbert Arenas got that thang on him and it broke the hell out of the Wizards🤣🤣🤣
P/S:Thanks for another awesome vid Jay✌️✌️✌️
Thanks man
Hey jay could you do the timeline of career of alonzo mourning
Sure man
Please would you do the Denver Nuggets rebuild from post-Melo era to 2023 NBA Champions, where Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray delivered their team to the promise land that Melo didn't
Already done
This team was talented with Jamison And Caron , they were good but not good enough to eliminate the Cavs
Yeah. They collapse in the playoffs
Thanks Jay hope you do my request michael jordan 2nd 3 peat and new jersey nets jason kidd and Martin Jr era
Sure man
16:00 gilbert arenas traded for gilbert arenas
Oh it must be rashard lewis. Sorry for the typo
Robert horry again👍👍 or timeline of KG and how he won 1 chip with the Boston Celtics or the third part of Michael Jordans career ( I'll always support u jay❤❤❤) The best NBA informational list 👍👍👍
Noted
Astounding name for Rashard Lewis ! Gilbert Arenas 😅
Yeah. That was his alter-ego. Lol
Those Antawn and Caron Butler trades were crazzzzy. For two Allstars + Brendan Haywood, Deshawn, they got Josh Howard, Drew Gooden, Al Thornton and a bunch of guys that you never heard of plus a waived Big Z. I mean holy shit.
You should do the Vancouver Grizzlies
Noted man
Can you do dale ellis to Gary Payton’s SuperSonics
Please
Noted man
how the Nuggets failed to win with Melo next? Great content as always my G!
Sure man. Thanks a lot man
I loved that team but they lacked defense and a big man who can score inside
Yeah. They had the offense. They lacked defense
Adding to what I said earlier, I understand that many of the franchise eras covered in videos of this nature failed to even break through to contender status. You could post the Durant-era Thunder and they'd still fit the category of "failed to win a title," but they were definitely a contender that got close multiple years. In fact, they would have my pick for this century's greatest team never to win a title. But they were in a better position than these Wizards ever were. My point being there should be a video about a team that represented the difference between failure to win a championship and failure to even contend for one, and those Thunder teams would be a good place to start.
Thanks for the suggestion man
Jay: There was an editing error I think in the last slide. You said that Gilbert Arenas was traded two both the Wizards and Magic.
Sorry for the mistake man
Can you do Tom Chambers?
Sure will do soon
❤
😍😍😍
Im a fan since 2021😢Just how fast the nights changes.
-My other acc got banned
So nostalgic
Can you do the knicks
Sure
People don't realize how insanely bad that 2009 draft night trade was with the T-Wolves!
Ernie Grunfeld took a Top 5 pick and traded it for Mike Miller and Randy Foye.
Two picks later was Steph Curry and both Miller and Foye left in free agency after one 25-57 season with the team.
Wizards could've just forfeited that pick and it wouldn't have been any different
I definitely agree. They could have drafted a future superstar!
Timeline of Deron Williams career
Soon man
People never understood the magnitude of the old gilbert for young gilbert trade
Yeah. That was one of the best trades. Lol
Gilbert Arenas was pretty much the Ja Morant back then with the gun incident.
Yeah. He destroyed his career
15:47 Wow what a lateral move for both teams 😂
The best trade of all time lol
Much less than contend for an NBA title, they didn’t even make the ECF and only won one playoff series (2005) after which they got swept in the 2nd Round.
So unfortunate man
Gilbert arenas got traded for Gilbert arenas. Makes sense man always had multiple personalities
Definitely man. Even the Magic traded Arenas back to Wizards for Arenas. 🤣🤣🤣
You have a mishup at the end of the video
Yeah. Sorry for the mistake man
The hell of Arenas ruined his career 😞
Yeah. But mostly, it was due to his multiple knee surgeries
@@jaywarvz that was one of the reasons
Hi Jay,
Here's One Question who is the better player? I wanna know your opinion.
4 Seasons 82 Games - 30.0 Pts, 7.0 Rbs, 4.0 AST, 1.0 Steals, 1.0 Blocks with 71% FG made, 38% 3PT FG, and 88% FT
6 Seasons 65 Games - 25.0 Pts, 7.0 Rbs, 8.0 AST, 2.1 Steals, 0.9 Blocks with 54% FG made, 47% 3PT FG, and 90% FT
I'd lean towards the second player.
While the first player boasts slightly higher points per game and shooting percentages, the second player's well-rounded performance with higher assists and steals per game suggests a greater influence on the overall game. The ability to contribute to multiple facets of the game, along with remarkable three-point shooting and free throw accuracy, could potentially make the second player more versatile and impactful on the court.
@@jaywarvz Thx for your response!
bruh that 2009 trade for the 5th pick, now looks awful
Yeah. A wasted pick
Be not fooled by the title. No era of Wizards basketball has even reached contender status for decades, although I imagine there have been times that they have gotten conceivably close.
True man. With their big 3, it is safe to consider them as contenders. Do you agree?
@@jaywarvz Each of them alone couldn't be the best player on a contender I don't think, but together they definitely had the look of a contender on paper. If they only won more games though...
Man can you do warriors 4th championship from the bottom of standing for 2 seasons (2020,2021) to becoming champions again in 2022
Already done
Penny Hardaway your next video Jay Warvz 💪💪💪
Noted man
@@jaywarvz nice DUDE, waiting couple months 🤣😂😂😂
They truly had a great trio, besides the injures, they couldn’t even get passed the cavs , they had to the team to make it I’m like dang I’m like Jamison, butler where that great but that’s the NBA for u
They weren't no serious contender
They still made wizards contenders in East
Something about this era of Wizards jerseys and colors shouldn’t work but they’re super unique and look really sharp. They should’ve never changed their unis.
Indeed man
They played my Lakers with that trade in 05
Well yeah man
@@jaywarvz I’m glad we bounced back with the Pau trade cuz that was awful lol
They had a lot of chances to beat Cleveland in 2006, but blew it in every clutch moment.
- In Game 3, Lebron traveled before he hit the game-winning layup, and then Arenas missed an open look at the game-winning three, losing by 1 point.
- In Game 5, Lebron drove baseline and made the game-winning layup in OT to win by 1 point again.
- In Game 6, Arenas missed two FTs, allowing Damon Jones to hit the game-winning jumper in OT and win by 1 point again. Caron Butler missed the game-tying three.
The Wizards were actually the 1-seed at the 2007 All-Star break, but Jamison was injured in the last game before the All-Star break. Arenas and Butler got injured later on and they fell to 0.500 as Jamison was the only star left for the Playoffs.
And in 2008 Arenas barely played due to injury. Again they lost on a game-winner to Cleveland in Game 4 thanks to Delonte West.
Interestingly, Washington was 3-0 against the 2006 Pistons and 3-1 against the 2008 Celtics, who both had the best record in the league in those respective years. It’s no guarantee that would translate to success in a playoff matchup, but a fun stat nonetheless.
Wow. Thanks for these additional info man. Wizards were really unfortunate in the postseason
This my favorite era not gon lie but I never thought that wizards team would ever win anything the farthest I thought they could go during those years 2nd round exit
Yeah. So tough for this team
The same day I was born, Gil scored 60 against Kobe. I'm a wizards fan.
Wow a wizards fan
Timeline John Stockton , record assist in NBA
Noted man
It must suck to be a wizards fan
So unfortunate
the gun incident was the turning point for the arenas era
Indeed man. So unfortunate
I didn't know that the Wizards in 2009, where 29th in the East or in the NBA???
They tanked and they were the 2nd worst team that time
Gilbert arenas my favorite wizard players since beal john wall his scoring ability🫡
So underrated
We didn’t win anything but making the playoffs 4 years in a row meant a lot when we have been a poverty franchise. Before Arenas & Butler got injured things were looking up in 2007.
So unfortunate man
Are you thinking about making videos on different sports in the future?
I want to, but I have just a limited knowledge of other sports.
Meme of spider man at the end
Yeah. Lol
Arenas was mad dog on the court explosive while making tons of threes
Scoring machine
Gilbert Arena sounds like a real venue 😅
True lol
Showtime lakers timeline in the 80s
Sure
Agent 0♥
Arenas!
Agent 0 super under rated
Definitely man!
hughes was sneeky good
Scoring machine
NBA title ? You meant a singular series 😂
Yeah lol
Washington receive: Gilbert Arenas
Magic receive: Gilbert Arenas
😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅
Lol
I hated Gerald Wallace for that Gilbert injury for years because the franchise has never recovered for that moment
The Wizards weren't going anywhere with Arenas you fool
So unfortunate man
@@jaywarvz 💯
I guess we’re running out of ideas now
How? Lol
@@jaywarvz Gil is a hot topic so I get it but that team was nowhere close to a contender to give them the title of failing to win a ring.
Ngl Gilbert would’ve been a Warrior but Golden State fumbled
Yeah. What could have been
@@jaywarvz Also had VC bro…man they coulda won like a few chips
They couldn’t pay him and he wasn’t even under contract
15:47 Gilbert arenas traded for gilbert arenas huh makes sense
Yeah indeed. Lol
Didn't realized that the Cavs beat them 3 times. They didn't get even close to goin to the finals
Yeah. So unfortunate
Arenas kinda underrated tbh
Definitely!
Video idea. The worst draft bust in the just 25 years.
Noted man. Thanks
And The Wizards Momentum Was lost 13:21
So tough
15:48
Gilbert Arenas traded to Magic and Wizards received... Gilbert Arenas?
Obviously a typo man. Sorry
They didn't ever get higher than a 5 seed and never made far in the playoffs. There's no point in asking the question why they never won an NBA title, they were never good enough, that's why
Well yeah
They have one championship from 1978 but yeah, i see your point
ernie grunfeld moment
Failures
Rashard Lewis A.k.A. Gilbert Arenas
Yeah. The goat. Lol
Rise and fall of Gerald Wallace timeline and a Rise and fall of Nick Young aka Swaggy P plz
The only good player in bobcats history
Ofc I just want a swaggy p video
Thanks for these ideas man
@@jaywarvz no problem keep it up
What's with this titlegore? I was a season ticket holder through the Arenas years. No one in the NBA or in DC believed they were a real contender. "Failed" seems like some clickbait nonsense, which explains why I'm here commenting.
Chill man. It's not a clickbait. I will explain why i put them as contenders. Since they had 3 all-stars and a team core, how come you will not consider them as contenders? Yeah, indeed they failed. That's the point of this timeline: to show that they failed, given that they had the potential and pieces to really contend.
I thought the magic gm and management staff was dum8... but dang.. wizards were even worse.
Indeed man
11th
Yow
If only the Wizards drafted Cousins and Arenas didn’t bring a gun to the locker room
What could have been man
"Failed to win an NBA title"...is this a joke? First of all there was no D, like there is no D either in Washington Wizards nor in Gilbert Arenas. Second of all, Arenas was a completely overvalued player (specially overvalued by himself), could score but not a good playmaker, very often injured and he never was smart, as everything that happened later proved and still isn't, considering some stupid comments on his podcast. Third, the Wizards had too many holes in the roster to even being considered competitors among other Eastern conference teams. Jamison was a scorer but no defense, no rebounding and no passing habilities. The Wizards were a complete cast of misfits at the end with the likes of Butler, Young, McGee, Stevenson, Crittenton or Blatche....yikes, not much IQ on the court!
Chill man
More like, failed to get out of the 2nd round
So unfortunate
Gilbert Arenas was traded for Gilbert Arenas hahahah LOL
Even the Magic returned Arenas back to Washington. Lol
That knee injury messed up arenas , If this injury didn't happen we may see arenas seeing him face against the 3pt revolution.
They also been Lebron's Playoff Rivals , Shout-out to Deshawn 😅
What could have been. Injuries suck
0:21 Damn Washington, y’all can’t win for shit 😭
1:45 I guess we’ll see about that. Oh wait?
4:03 Wizards, take notes
8:33 Why does it sound worse for some reason
9:34 Damn that crowd sounded really excited 😂😂
11:06 Looking ass?
12:10 You know the Eastern Conference is weak when a coach’s longest tenure is 6 years💀
13:53 Bruh people who brings guns should have an auto rejection from either a team or the whole league 💀
14:36 Doesn’t help that you’re playing for a team that either misses the playoffs or fails to make it pass the first round.
15:18 The future for Washington is here…..or at least we thought.
You timestamps are hilarious 😆
@@jaywarvzOh I wasn’t done yet, I’m doing this as I go along with the video
Ok whew I’m done. 😥 😅 So what do you think now?
So creative man. So funny man. Lol
15:49 wtf two Gilbert arenas 😂😂😂
Yeah. He was traded back to himself. Lol
