Wiz are getting killed in the paint

Beat-down, we need some muscle in the middle badly. OTOH, it wouldn't have mattered much, the Pistons are executing like MOFO's out there.

Cade doesn't like being defended by Kyshawn.

Kyshawn and Sarr look like solid cornerstones for a competitive future starting 5. We just need to land our star in the next draft. Peterson would be amazing with our core.

Sarr was ok. Got bullied by Duren but that's mostly to be expected. He needs to add more cheeseburgers to his diet.

Tre looked terrible. Kispert is still a bum despite a spurt of good play.

I haven't watched but a few minutes of preseason but I feel confident their 26 pick is completely safe.

I know it’s early …

Tre looks smaller than advertised. I know he can shoot it, but he can’t turn the corner on guys.

I only just tuned in, saw only a bit of the third and some of the fourth … I’m going to go back and watch the rest …

I was just listening to Glenn Consor on the radio broadcast. Talking about the Pistons and their rebuild, and how it took time. Yeah, it took a lot of time — and they’re definitely better, but they’re also not an example to hold up to a DC fan. If, after 4-5 years of tanking, we attain the level of the Pistons last year or this, that’s a complete and dispiriting failure. A 49-52 win team that will never get out of the East …

Agree on Tre - he hasnt looked good. It's early but he looks smaller and slower against NBA players. Hopefully the game slows down for him. Grundle players hit the trifecta of old, small, and slow. At least Tre is young.

I wouldn't be so quick to dismiss a 50 win season. I've never seen one in my lifetime and I'm well into middle aged decrepitness. Plus all the pistons guys are in their early or mid 20s.

Tre’s not passing the eye test. He looks small, slow, and lackadaisical.

Keyshwan, otoh, looks like a boss.

From the box score, it looks like they killed from three.

Kyshawn hit shots.
Tre Johnson is the future of the Wizards.

He's not even Johnny Davis.

Johnny was bigger and a better defender when drafted.
