    Okay, so no luck scoring a LeBron James autograph -- even though he had strategically purchased a perfect seat six months ago, even though he arrived at MCI Center super early, even though he came with a pair of LeBron's signature Nike sneakers and a Sharpie.

    But with 30 seconds left in last Friday's Wizards-Cavaliers game, Gilbert Arenas came to the rescue. He spotted the high school senior's large yellow cardboard sign: "Gilbert, All I Want For My Birthday Is Your Jersey." Attached to the sign was a miniature basket, with net, and a photo of the Wizards' scoring leader hoisting his jersey into the crowd.

    "It was his birthday, so why not?" explained Arenas, shortly after tossing the youngster a jersey. </div>

    Arenas is awesome like that. He does so much for the fans, he is such a people person. He loves the fans, and they love him.
