Gilbert Arenas Smacked Down in Court


Gilbert Arenas has been trying like hell to keep his baby mama Laura Govan from being able to mention his name on Basketball Wives LA [click here if you missed that].

While Gilbert's peers Shaquille O'Neal and Dwight Howard sued successfully to keep Shaunie and Royce Reed from uttering their names on the Miami version of the show, Gil was not so lucky...


From TMZ
Gilbert Arenas' ex-fiancee is free to talk smack and get in as many catfights as she wants on "Basketball Wives LA" -- thanks to a federal court decision today.

A judge ruled against the NBA star's request to block Laura Govan from appearing on the show and mentioning his name.

The judge said Gilbert's claim that details of his family life should not be aired on the reality show -- is undercut by the fact he has "tens of thousands of Twitter users who follow [him] as he tweets about a variety of mundane occurrences."

Arenas has 51,103 Twitter followers. He and Govan have 4 children together
