We match up pretty well. I'm looking forward to seeing Seraphin against Glen Davis. They are similar types of players.

This game should be a win, our guys have been playing very hard. I expect Beal to have his best game of his career.

Every game is struggle, especially to close-out so I cannot predict any victory with confidence. Orlando was supposed to be where we are currently.

Afflalo is a good defender, I imagine he'll give Beal a hard time. ORL has good shooters, they should blow us out.

And that's without Harrington playing any minutes yet. Maybe Okafor will have a huge game and they will decide to trade Hedo's partially guaranteed deal straight up for him? Adding Okafor+Harrington at some point mid-season could be enough to push them back into the middle of the East playoff picture. Maybe we can even get a 2nd to make up for the one we lost.

I kind of saw that coming. He fell pretty hard.

Should see lots of Webster and Martin tonight.

Lets see if Randy figures this one out.

Hmm, who to start.

Crawford
Martin
Singleton
Kevin .. Nene if he can
Barron

Oh God Randy. Just heard his starting line up.

Livingston
Crawford
Webster
Okafor
Barron

Randy really could mess up a wet dream. Why move Crawford again after he was just settling in at PG.

I expect a low shooting percentage night from Crawford. Livingston has been really back so no PG leading the team again.

I am really starting to hate Randy.

Stop blaming Randy for the siht roster that Ernie gave him hands. Perhaps we could have won a few mor games at-best.

Hands, your lineup proposals are like rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic.
Bullets -> Wizards

At least he got one move right. He is starting Barron. But with this group, I don't think it will show much benefit like it did last night.

hands, the lineup Randy posts is totally irrelevant. The team has no better chance of winning with ANY of the players starting or sitting that he has available. The entire roster is barely replacement level. WHO CARES.

Ahh, cool. I forgot they had Nikola

That was a guy I targeted for us in that draft.

Now Beal is out.... good thing its only for a day.

With all these injured youngsters and bringing in older players carrying injuries it is time to rename this franchise the Washington Invalids

Well, in fairness, we took Mike Pence off their hands. Taking back Mahinmi is the least they can do.

Good thing we started Earl Barron tonight or else things would have gotten ugly.
Bullets -> Wizards
