Gilbert Arenas goes off -- In a postgame interview following Saturday's loss in San Antonio, Arenas accused his Wizards' teammates of having "hidden agendas" because so many of them are free agents after this season.

Sitting is driving Tayshaun Prince crazy. He's played nearly 500 consecutive games and is now on the outside, all because of a small ruptured disc in his back.

The 20th-ranked Georgetown Hoyas lift the lid on the 2009-10 season with a trip to the Big Easy for a clash with the Tulane Green Wave.

The curtain goes up on another Georgetown Hoyas basketball season this Friday and it's anyone's guess how it will pan out.

To avoid a repeat of last season's disappointing finish, Georgetown probably needs a traditional second-year leap from its frontcourt tandem of Julian Vaughn and Henry Sims.

There was a time when Greg Monroe was clearly the No. 1 player in the 2008 recruiting class, although that was before he signed with Georgetown and then concluded his high school career.

Omar Wattad left the team in April and intended to transfer. The sophomore swingman started once and played a big role in the early-season rotation, but had lost most of those minutes by the end of the 2008-09 season.

John Thompson III continues to change the scheduling philosophy at Georgetown. Maybe more so than any other Big East school, Georgetown is preparing for the league's regular season by putting itself in position to have a conference-like week in early December.

I knew Austin Daye was going to wait until I left Las Vegas to have his two best performances of summer-league play.
