<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Guard Gilbert Arenas won the NBA's Most Improved Player award May 1. Arenas, in just his second pro season, got 41 of 118 first-place votes, finishing with 288 points. Utah's Matt Harpring was second with 234 points, followed by Arenas' teammate Troy Murphy with 144. San Antonio's Tony Parker was fourth with 143. Arenas started all 82 games this season and responded with career bests of 18.3 points, 6.3 assists and 4.7 rebounds. Sadly for the Warriors, Arenas may have improved too much. Because he was a second-round pick in 2001, he is a free agent this summer and might choose to leave Oakland. </div> <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">"Well, I guess I'm 'old school' as much as I can be for somebody my age, yeah.
