The great thing about Gilbert Arenas is that he's as entertaining off the court as he is on it. After a performance of 32-11-8 and a game-winner so sick that you need to watch it again, Gilbert had some more classic quotes for us to enjoy. After seeing the shot, it may have looked to you like Gilbert didn't even watch it go in -- your eyes did not deceive you:
"Once I let it go -- you know I'm looking at it -- and I'm like: 'Oh, that's in. I don't even need to look at this one."
It also appeared that this shot was from serious distance, a good 5-7 feet beyond the three-point line. No problem for Gilbert, who by his estimation is perfect from out there:
"I don't know why this is a surprise to you guys now. I'm 8 for 8 on shots of more than 30 feet. That's an easy shot for me."
Finally, Gilbert has been known to occasionally yell a thing or two when launching these types of shots, a testament to his confidence as a shooter. For this one though, he let the shot speak for itself:
"I didn't say anything. My swag was phenomenal."
No doubt.
*UPDATE: Video of Gilbert himself sayin' these things can be seen here.
