Rondo.

I've watched the Celtics game last night and Rondo came off the bench and played some quality minutes running the second unit and getting them good looks.

Yeah, Rondo has fallen off, but even in the game against us he showed that he can still do damage as a creator in the right circumstances.

Burke on the other hand is completely useless as a PG.

A loss to Boston wouldn't be humiliating. They're damn good. It's the same roster as last year, only they added Horford and Thomas went from being merely "good" to being an MVP candidate.

True Rondo is marginally better - he is still overpaid at $14 million a season.

FIFY

1. His help defense, so we changed our scheme to have him switch everything and he's been great guarding the perimeter.

2. His rebounding, career high this season, averaging over 8 since Dec 1

3. His inefficient scoring: 48% and 42% from 3 since Dec 1st

It's gotta be Brooks man, Keef is playing like a max player on a 8 million$ contract. This is so weird

Brooks has been absolutely amazing for both team culture and player development. This is why we have improved so much. Brooks deserves coach of the year if the Wizards continue to even close this pace.

Screw that.

Losing to ANYONE is unacceptable.

I wanna go for it all. THIS YEAR. :nod:

If we lose to Boston in the playoffs, I'm rioting. I expect this team to beat Cleveland pending ernies move. Fingers crossed

Lowry,
DeRozan,
Carroll,
Ibaka, Patterson
Valanciunas, Noguiera

Is pretty deep and tough as well. If Lowry holds up.

I'd be a little disappointed if we lost to Toronto. I think Ibaka and Carroll are both overrated. Our backcourt is comparable to theirs and our frontcourt is better. They have more depth, but that shouldn't matter much in the playoffs.

Ibaka is 27th in RPM among 4s. Morris is now....

wait for it....

11th. I am sure he wasn't even top 40 around New Years.

This game in Chicago was disgracefull. Refs screw Boston in big way. Butler iso was horrendeus and He wasn't fouled at all. Not even close.

I wanna go for it all. THIS YEAR.

Im with you...Isiah is overrated. They pulling him from the floor in the last minute of the game because he is a defensive liability. So im like Damn...Curry won MVP but he couldn't stop a runny nose...but it was obvious. Curry was the best player on one of the best regular season teams ever and his shooting is unearthly. Isiah shouldn't be in the MVP conversation because there are better players doing better things at both ends of the court than him and boston aint Shilznick. We need to pull out all BLACK uniforms if we see them in the playoffs, But when we get that number 1 seed i assume we wont play them unless they can get through cleveland. We need to sure up our bench for THIS year and make a run at it all. We get home court through out the playoffs and DEMAND that Lebron have his best assist game ever and that he have to make four 3s in the 4th quarter to beat us...i think Porter and Morris now believe they the best players at thier position in the league. Porter should only look up to Durant and Lebron...he just dealt with PG on PGs floor -

LOOK WE STRAIGHT! Yall need to start believing in the WIZKIDS cause they den grown up!

It was a weak call that gave Chicago the game given the situation. But Boston also got a really weak bail out foul call on Taj Gibson when Isiah Thomas took it inside, got it stripped, recovered it, then went up for a shot underneath his basket and Gibson blocked it clean. Bad officiating giveth and it taketh away.

We need boston to lose...so im good with the phantom call. But I do know this... if we were playing ball and you grazed my elbow ever so slightly and we were playing in Barry Farms...I wouldn't call the foul.

They confirmed that the refs were calling a game in Chicago and Chicago got the call. Notice how the ref waits for the shot to miss before calling the foul.

That's no foul, especially on the final play of the game.

He was definitely trying to hit him on the elbow. If he was actually trying to contest the shot his hand wouldn't be anywhere near the elbow. He didn't have a chance to contest the shot so he went for the elbow hoping the refs wouldn't call it.
