Agreed. I wouldn't do the deal anyway, but especially not considering the current status of Arenas' contract in Washington. Re-sign Elton, (who is only 28!) let Maggette and Cassell walk after this season, and make a run at Gilbert when he opts out of his deal. Having Arenas here without Brand would just be senseless.
