Yes....if we only played the worst defensive team in the league the rest of the season and as long as Evan can hang 30..sure.

Yes a win is a win, but come on losing to the worst defensive team allowing 150 opppg withtout their 2nd best player would have been impressive actually.

The bright side on this is the way FULTZ is slowly but surely becoming the motor of this team with JI.

But at least we are winning against bad ( at least more than us ) teams.


Aren’t we missing our best player? Why are we “supposed” to win? Wizards are one of the best shooting teams in the league, isn’t shooting everything that matters? Maybe we should have lost

It's almost impossible to not score 80 points in nba game nowdays.
League's average in PPGs is 110

Average amount of FGA is 89
Average amount of three point attemps is 33
Average amount of FTs is 22

Even in your apsolute worst game in decade you will score 18 points a quater.

But what's more realistic nowdays is that team scores 96 points and loses by 41 ( Bucks- Hornets yesterday) or team scores 106 and loses by 28 (Bucks W over Wolves).
Where 10 years ago scoring 100 ment that you are either winning or you are in close game.

btw i know you are just f***in' around but still , i'm confident 10 of us from form would "drop " 60 on Warriors :lol:

I'm pretty sure i never said " nothing impressive" , btw i never really comment too much on " easy wins" or " expected Ls" because they are just that -expected.

Wizards are in terrible spot because of Wall. Didn't help that their starting C and backup PF didn't play so they were left with group of undersized players. As i posted above ,they do not have center now. 6'8 guy is tallest guy on roster.

We won, yeey, let's hope they will have enough energy to play Suns. :)

We've played pretty well in B2BS so far but this is an away-home.

We've still beat the teams without Vuc that we beat with Vuc and lost to the teams we lost to with Vuc. We've actually won by more on the road without Vuc (at CLE, at WAS) and lost by less on the road without Vuc (at IND). Small sample size for sure, but right now it's looking like we are winning better and losing "better" without Vuc. Sure, we probably won't beat the good teams but we rarely did with Vuc anyway. Phoenix will be a good test.

The team will be so much better now once their All-Star level center comes back into the fold.

Hopefully! Vuc's usage might need to come down a bit to keep the other guys rolling.

All part of team development that should be implemented by coach.

Clifford said that this is the trend in one of his interviews. Our coach is not dumb.

Calm down dude as usuall you are cherrypicking.Its not my fault they played such teams.
So far they are doing fine on offense without him and as far as I can remember not only cavs and warriors we were 100+ ...and nothing you say will change that fact.
Its especially impressive considering they relied heavily on Vuc for so many years and got used to Vuc dominance of the ball
...Their experience without Vuc is minimal and yet already they are looking fine Im not saying they look better Im just saying theres life without him vs comments like>>>" they wont be able to score 60- or 70"...but of you already felt so threatened you had to come to defend poor Nik.
Jesus theres no room to talk with the likes of you.Anybody mentions Vuc you are already there... moderating
Thats not normal and not healthy Im telling you.
