I was thinking last night...is Bradley Beal the Mitch Richmond of this generation?

That's a great comp as far as one of the top SG, but not the best and not having the playoff success.

I thought so too! Richmond made a couple trips to the second round in his first 3 seasons. Beal made it to the second round 3 times in first 5 seasons. But once they became "the guy," only a couple of first-round exits to show for it.

Put Anderson on KP, let Gobert control the paint!

Thankfully, the Wizards play big now usually. Gobert can guard Gafford.

I feel like this game will determine if we have a fail or successful season :D

If we win, we essentially have the exact same record as last year (easier schedule aside) without Towns for most of the season. The Gobert trade kept us afloat and help us to a better standing than last year.

If we lose, we are in danger of falling out of the play-in. The Gobert trade is a totally failure that we can't recover from for the next 7 years :D

This is no gimmick. Gobert looks a thousand times more comfortable on the floor with Conley.

Let’s say the wolves continue to build chemistry and win before Kat comes back. While it might not be popular, I think you might have to bring Kat off the bench the rest of the season.

This is not suggesting it be his permanent role moving forward. This is simply about team identity and not disrupting the chemistry.

offensively, we look bit more controlled and less chaotic with Conley
