Gotta get these next few W's. #Playoffs here we come! (If only we had those few W's from the beginning of the season then we easily could have been in either 8th or 7th place!).

The dramatic climate change really screwed Telfair.

I heard Telfair has fallen sick from trying to battle the Calderon curse.

Ok Casey, if AA starts the game 1-7 again, tell him to "hit the bench" and put Ross in.

Dallas lost today and are pissed - not good news for the Bucks
But I'm think we come out flat this game and lay an egg!
We're due for a bad outing

Matt Devlin will probably get shot 9 times by Whale
Devlin quits broadcasting and becomes a rapper
Becomes a trillionaire selling records about getting shot
Turns Whale's career into a Ja Rule

Got to be careful of this game Washington has played well since we beat them and will be
looking for revenge and a lot of the players are friends with Wale and will try to prove a
point against us. Lowry needs to keep Wall in check again and Jonas loves the Wizards bigs.
Hopefully Telfair plays and gives us a boost and it's a good time for Ross and Bargnani to get
out of their slumps.

This is a trap game. I hope the Raptors seriously bring it.
Washington will beat us if we take them too lightly. If we play them like we've played NYK/Indiana, we take it.

I watched both the games against Denver and against Houston. They were both foul-filled, sloppy, pace-increased, crappy defensive games from both teams--when both superior teams only tried for a quarter and still almost pulled it out (Houston played meh for a half and got bored--they though they had a blowout).
The Wizards, as a team, make many errors and poor decisions, John Wall chief amongst them. Beal is a nice player, Nene is great offensively but struggles against length, and Okafor gives you a workmanlike effort. Booker is a great hustle player and decent post presence.
Basically, if you play the pick and roll well and cut off John Wall in the swing swing offense, they are going to turn the ball over frequently. We won the last time because we kept taking advantage of Wall going baseline to try to set up the weak-side three over and over again. My bet is they'll try to punish us more in the paint, we will need to guard it well to limit Washington's effectiveness. Stopping Booker, Nene and Okafor (and continuing to let John Wall dribble into our trap) is the main key to the game.
If they play a slow-paced defensive game the Raptors have the ability to blow them out.

More like can Rudy and the starters stop Casey's and his man love for Lucas and Anderson. The game against the NYK showed how clueless our coach is. He was sticking to Anderson and Lucas 'till NY ties the game up. He even made Lowry wait to play Lucas some more before he subbed him in. Where was Val who was dominating on the boards? Luckily all those offensive rebounds we gave up on the 4th didn't come back to bite us. Casey needs to learn how to sub a player off or even tell them to stop shooting. When Gay was on fire during 3rd AA and Lucas decided to stop going to him and ball hog.
If there's one thing I scared off is Casey's coaching, soon enough Gay, Amir, Lowry or even DD won't be able to bail out the sheer stupidity that is Casey's coaching.

How is this a 'trap' game? So we're going to overlook the Wiz in order to play...the Cavs?

It's a trap game such that, Raptors make take them lightly since
a) we've beaten them before
b) we're playing them against on our home court
c) we have a better record than them
It's the same approach we took against Sacramento and it cost us big time.
We have to play with a sense of urgency with the mentality that losing one game could mean us essentially being kicked out of the playoff race

Wizards are a dangerous team at home, if we were going to lose to them it would of been our last game against them. They are 4-22 on the road, I am not worried about them.

It depends on which Wizards team shows up. They can be fairly decent at times. Let us hope they're having an off night.
