Top 5 in the league after less than one season together. I think your definition of suck is a bit too harsh. I hope you're enjoying some of these games at least brother.
 
We don't suck in the sense that the Wizards suck. We suck in the sense of its a fake season that won't move us any closer to the 1st pick, or a title. Everything screams mid-treadmill, feasting on bad teams and the few wins we have against elite teams usually feature them not playing their starters. 
When you watch us play elite teams it's clear we're just a random team between 5th and play-in. 
0-3 vs. Boston
0-2 vs. Cavs (and surely we play them late, their seed will be locked, they'll rest everyone, we'll win, and sidewalk clowns will bing bong the win)
0-6 vs. L.A. and OKC
we played Denver well I guess? I only watched the home game. We play other go nowhere mid teams in the East well the Bucks, with both rosters injured most games. The Bucks are a cooked team that should blow it up (should have at the draft last year). We play the Pacers well also ... yay.
But it's a rare year where 76ers, Miami, and the Raptors are all tanking hard. We will likely X-0 the East tanks, Raptors, Nets, Miami, 76ers, Bullets.

This is how losers like Thibs keep their jobs and win Coach of the Year. Harvesting the bile from the gullet of the NBA. 
As this relates to Mikal Bridges, well it's a shining example of being mid-suck. We deify a good starter and trade 5 firsts and a swap for him when no other team was so desperate for mediocrity. He isn't really good. He's a good starter. Not All-Nba good, but not a weak spot in your starting lineup. He's Andrew Wiggins. On a great day he's Derrick White -- the C's traded ... ONE 1st for White. He's KCP on the 22-23 Nuggets, almost literally. Imagine trading 5+1 firsts for KCP?
