Agent Zero, turn in your badge.
Gilbert Arenas, the sharpshooting Wizards (ironically, formerly known as the Bullets) guard has been suspended indefinitely by the NBA.
Indefinitely. Not a game, not a month, not even a year. Indefinitely. That means until NBA Commissioner David Stern feels like it.
Arenas' suspension stems from allegations that he and teammate Javaris Crittenton pulled out guns on each other in the Wizards locker room. This has led into a federal investigation as well as a possibility that the Wizards void Arenas' gigantic contract.
This means even more trouble for the already troubled Wizards, who have been severely underachieving in a very weak Eastern Conference.
But if the Wizards start winning games without Arenas, then we can safely say that the "Allen Iverson Effect"* is in full force.
*The Allen Iverson Effect is addition by subtraction, meaning a team becomes better because a player has been removed. Think of it as like a cancerous tumor being removed from the body.
