Gilbert Arenas, Nick Young still talking trash

Nick Young got humbled in his last meeting with Gilbert Arenas, when Arenas used nearly every trick in his arsenal to take the Wizards' leading scorer out his game. Arenas roughed him up, snuck in some elbows, nudged him, and talked enough trash that at least three sanitation trucks needed to clean up afterward.

Arenas has been calling and texting, "but I ain't been answering," Young said. "I pretty much learned from that game not to get caught up in the games with him. That's what he do. He think he can take me out of my game."

When told about Young's desires not to go back and forth this time around, Arenas lowered his head and chuckled. "That's a lie. He was with me yesterday. He was with me last night," Arenas said, unable to contain his laughter. "He was my Valentine."

Arenas said Young engaged with trash talk when the two former teammates hung out on Monday in Orlando. "Nick can't help himself. That's all Nick wants to do with me. He said it's over for me this time. He has to take down the King of D.C. He said he's coming for me."
