LBJ has to box out better than he's doing if Love is going play center.

Yeah we've got no shot at playing at this pace all game.

I’m hoping Lue will actually give Osman more minutes than garbage time with Shumpert out.

But somehow I think I’m giving my hopes up, and Osman will only ever play garbage time.

But then again Zizic is out there now so C’mon Lue, put Osman out there as well.

It’s kind of sad to say that I actually feel much more confident with an unproven Zizic out the court than I do with Tristan Thompson.

Zizic is actually providing some rim protection.

His PNR defense though.

Wizards are getting away with a lot of moving screens & are upset when the grab afterwards isn't getting called.

A Cavs win and a Nets loss will make my night.

Hopefully the Nets go on a huge losing streak since their November schedule is brutal.

They’re starting their Western Conference road trip tonight.

I think the new & improved J. Green might be back to the old & under performing J. Green.

I don't think the Cavs are going to shoot 68% for the game.

Washington has been losing to LeBron for 14 years straight now.

I sure would like to see more of Zizic, i thought i was looking at first year mozgov out there again for a short minute. Looks big and able to provide some decent defense. Maybe he doesn't bring it in practice enough i don't get it at all.

His PNR defense was pretty sketchy.

I really can't believe Scott Brooks never doubled LBJ.

solid motivated ( against another deep run potential playoff team) defensive effort, and Lebron going video game = guaranteed success.
This teams biggest problem was lack of motivation and a shortened tc, I doubt it is over completely, but the odds of the same poor defensive efforts we saw in most of the first 8 games before the Washington win are unlikely to be commonplace going forward.
