AB was 13-6-6 with 5/7 shooting and I wasn't that impressed

I believe some posters used this exact team to reminded us that the Wizards had won more games than us post all star break. So, if one group can use them to show how horrible we are, I think it’s fair the other group use the win to feel warm and fuzzy inside.

We need Denver to go on a losing streak with Jokic out.

Let's see how they look against what is likely going to be a full strength Lakers team on Monday.

2 days off. Minor rest advantage. Should be no excuses whatsoever for another lackadaisical home performance.

KCP quietly shooting 56.8% from the floor and 44.4% from 3PT in the last 11 games.

Hey, what happened to Jonny Davis and Patrick Baldwin Jr for the Wizards?

Team now 3-2 with CoJo starting over the last 5 games. I think we know who we need to keep riding with for the rest of the season.

What I got out of this game is Houstan > Jett.

These games against the Wizards always devolve into what resembles like a pickup game track meet. It's really weird and honestly not that fun to watch.

Paolo looks really good when the 3 is falling as it has. That is going to be the swing skill for him. It looks good right now, it looked good in the small sample pre-injury. Has to confidently shoot it, opens up the offense for others as well.

37.1% (6.5 3PA) since the all-star break, 42% (6.2 3PA) over the last 10 games. Either way, those are great percentages for him moving forward. Hope he can keep it up.

Agree. Looks confident too. Still a small sample so we will see, but I think he can keep it up. Changes everything when he is willing to take one dribble and shoot the 3 with the space he has instead of dribbling it into traffic.

Interesting. It’s almost like we win when more than just Paolo and Franz hit buckets. Hrm.

This is where we need to get franz....if franz gets to these percentages then it's really over.....but it might take some work because i swear that little hitch changes from game to game.....one game it's more noticeable and another it's not.....he needs consistent mechanics

Nice win but off topic Weltman and Parker need to do whatever it takes to draft Jeremiah Fears. Kid is the next one. He's the final piece.

LOL was about to post something similar in the draft thread. He is making some crazy passes too. I don't think we have a chance unless we lose the play-in and even then probably not, but man he would be ideal.

can someone make any sense of the JI situation?

Mosley being Mosley. I bet he would say that WCJ was playing well and Goga was the bench big he was going to go with because of Washington's lack of size. Mosley is so damn predictable that it's not even funny anymore.

Almost feels like it correlates with us starting Cory Joseph. Hmmmm...
