Gilbert: Straight Tiger

LESS BODY FAT!

By Jake Appleman

Reader Fake Ass Tim Duncan alerted me to this post (via True Hoop) from Gilbert’s NBA.com blog. The best part? Gilbert infers that he cheats on his diet with cheetos:

“I’m still on my diet too. It’s going well, I’m ripped baby! Of course I’m still tempted by Cheetos. I just said I’m still on a diet, but I didn’t say I don’t cheat away from the diet. Of course I do. I’m an American! We eat bad! Kobe Bryant lost 20 pounds, so that’s good. I’ll body him. I gained seven pounds, but this is a good seven. I’m at four percent body fat now. I was at 11 percent body fat when I got hurt. So I’m down to four percent and it’s all muscle, cut up, you know, looking diesel.”

Gilbert also wants to shoot 99.3% from the floor during his workouts and make 100,000 shots for the summer.

Amazing Cheetos Bonus Footage.

    Gilbert *implied* that he cheats on his diet, not inferred. Sorry, I hate when those 2 words get switched.

    “Kobe Bryant lost 20 pounds, so that’s good. I’ll body him.” -Hibachi I cant wait for the season, there’s nothing like the killer instinct of your favorite player during a contract year.

    Damn you Kobe. Did anybody watch to scrimage of team USA the other day? He lost way to much weight. If anything, he should’ve gone down to 215-210, but 200 lbs is not enought for a shooting guard. He might decide to move over to the PG spot.

    I like Gilbert’s crazy way more than Steph’s crazy.

    [...] -Jake Appleman linked to Gilbert Arenas’s blog post yesterday, but I’m going to link to it again because Gil’s entries always have a lot of good stuff to chew on. I ran up and down for the first time with the USA Under-21 Team. I don’t know what to call that team actually, they don’t look like they’re under 21. I’ll just call them the USA College Team.They were down in D.C. at the Verizon Center so I played with them. I hit a couple buckets, you know, but that’s all I can say. I couldn’t jump and stuff them, I was looking like I was Chucky Atkins out there around the rim. The stroke was there, but I was looking like Chucky on the vert. [...]
