Wiz vs Denver Game Thread 2/22/13 7PM - Its a win

[CntOutSmrtCrazy]

Huge, huge block by Nene.

that Ty Lawson kid is swift...thanks Nene, the almighty rim-protector!

[nate33]

Nene routinely comes up with huge plays in crunch time. Tonight it was the offensive rebound for Ariza's 3, and then the block on Lawson.

Wall!!!!!

[DANNYLANDOVER]

...and that's game...why can't we play like this against the fricking Pistons and Raptors smh

[RustyMagoo]

7 guys in double figures. Nice win!

[CntOutSmrtCrazy]

Sigh* If only we can play against good teams every night.

[SizzlinSimms]

Three players with double doubles: Wall, Beal and Okafor!

What I meant to post is "Once the Wizards get rid of Crawford, Bradley Beal is going to blow up! Who needs Jordan Crawford? I'm glad they got nothing for him."

Beal's line: 17 points, 12 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 steals, 2 blocks

Not bad for a 19-year old!

[RustyMagoo]

The Beal in the sky keeps on turning!

The Oak is still playing well! Hope Randy plays him more than 25 mins this game.

Nope. 24

That same damn nice production for 24 minutes. 13 rebounds 17 pts

Looking at it another way, his talents are very well showcased at the lower minute rate, with reduced risk of injury. An injured Okafor will be harder to trade this summer.

[Chocolate City Jordanaire]

I bitched a lot about the Crawford trade.

What I am glad to see is the Wizards have managed to keep Okafor and both he and Ariza will have value. Okafor is playing perhaps his best basketball and he is on an expiring deal. NOW Okariza can pay off, since the Wizards didn't trade either from a position of weakness.

[CntOutSmrtCrazy]

Beal was the only starter to play more than 30 minutes. I don't think anyones going to complain about 7 players scoring in double digits. I Wish randy would play Wall for the first 9-10 minutes, sit him until about the 10 or 9 minute mark and do likewise in the second half, enough with these prolonged benchings.

[hands11]

Beal with the double-double.

Three double doubles.

Wall
Beal
Okafor

When is the late time that happened.

7 players scored between 12 and 17 pts

Pretty impressive.
