With all the hullaballoo surrounding Gilbert Arenas getting 30 days in a halfway house over a felony gun possession charge, some think Arenas got the short end of the stick.
The Associated Press writes:
Mavericks guard DeShawn Stevenson considers Gilbert Arenas like a brother.
So when news came Friday that Arenas would be spared jail time, Stevenson was nearly as relieved as Arenas.
Arenas, the suspended Washington star and former Wizards teammate of Stevenson, was ordered Friday to spend 30 days in a halfway house for his conviction on gun charges stemming from a locker-room confrontation with teammate Javaris Crittenton in December.
Arenas was also fined $5,000 and ordered to perform 400 hours of community service.
“Obviously, he did something wrong and he’s paying the price, being suspended all year,” Stevenson said Friday. “And for him to get 30 days in a halfway house is awesome.
“I hope he can take this experience and understand that as a professional you have a target on your back. I’m just happy because they were trying to take everything away from him that he worked so hard for.”
Brendan Haywood and Caron Butler were also longtime teammates of Arenas with Washington before a Feb. 13 trade brought them to Dallas.
