Kool-Aid Drinking, Season Turnaround Thread

[LyricalRico]

Imagine well-used possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for turnovers or bricked shots
A defense that's robust
Imagine Crawford sharing the ball with his team

Very fitting that Kool-Aid was spelled wrong.

Completely healthy we probably are a better team.
But that's not saying anything. We have 4 wins right now.
The probabilities of changes making us a worse team are
vanishingly small.

jim, are you working some kind of super-Haiku angle here? It's like a Haiku of Haikus.

And yes, that's how far we've fallen, both as a board and as a team, that this is the most interesting thing we can talk about.

if I composed a haiku, I assure you it was not by design

can't go to the game tonight (vs OKC) getting (so far) limited
response to my ad on CL for my tixs. That's how bad it is.

God i could go a mug of Kool-Aid with plenty of ice right now. Its almost 8pm and its 40°C here. Google says that is 104 in Farenheit.

Wall interview

Speed kills.

A few more fast break points and 5-6 FTAs plus better passing from the PG to give Beal and Webster open looks. Going to sweet to see.

[SizzlinSimms]

When Wall comes back the team becomes the new Showtime! Faster than a speeding Bullet!

Wall, Beal, Vesley shows up because he's capable of running, Nene, and Okafor!

We turn it around and go plus .500 from the all-star break!

At the very least, they'll be fun to watch

As bad as we've been, it's not like teams have been blowing us out the water night in and night out. Most of the games have been very close. Our players are just....just....dumb. We snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. We're so freaking good at it!

Heat wave in the land down-under. Its almost half that now though, thankfully. Some of the hottest temperatures in the country since they started keeping a record. The whole state was basically on fire for a while there.

I'm not sure it's because are players are dumb, just not very good at putting
the ball in the basket which turns out to be kinda important.

Looking like everyone but Martin may be ready to go.

Thursday afternoon, with point guard John Wall dribbling, cutting and driving as if he’s on track to play for the first time this season on Saturday night against the Atlanta Hawks at Verizon Center.

Coach Randy Wittman also is keeping open the possibility of having guard Jordan Crawford and center Nene back in the lineup, meaning the Wizards may be able to field their most complete lineup to date.

“Again, we’ll see,” Wittman said. “We’ll see what either of them do tomorrow and go from there. I don’t want to rule one way or the other anything yet with another full day of practice ahead.”

There’s also a chance forward Trevor Booker makes it back for Saturday night’s game.

“We have people injured, big pieces,” Booker said. “We’ll see now what we’re made of. I’m ready, back to my usual self. Sometimes you’ve got to be more patient. You could injure yourself even more, but I think I’m ready now. I’m ready to go.”
