Me too. I don't think that will happen this game as the Wizards seem to matchup well against us. We are just better at what they do if that makes sense.

So long as they have el matador levels of defense (Wizards I mean) and look for pick pocket steals I think they force a few turnovers from us.

I also think 2 days is plenty of time for Mose to get us back on track.

What really matters in this game to me is Paolo's health. As he represents on a ton of gravity. Part of the reason I think we ran away with it is due to Paulo's gravity as he matches up well with anyone the Wizards can throw at him. But because he showed the ability to defer. The rest of the team doesn't seem to have an "adapt" mentality.

Adapt is our benchs middle name. Green Adapt Goblins.

The scary thing is their poor defense has been all over the news the last 36 hours. Kuzma called it out. If they grow a spine and we have an off shooting night, we'll lose this game unless we bring back the defensive intensity. I'm sure coach Mosley has been harping on it.

Right it could go either way. Does Washington come out fired up trying to prove themselves? Or do they roll ever after hearing their "best" player bad mouth them to the media and say 'f' trying.

I am a bit nervous after wednesday. If we didnt have our best shooting night of the year that game would have been pretty close. We need to swing the turnover battle back in our favor tonight.

We ran away with it in the 4th quarter where Paolo didn't play.

Further evidence that we should trade him for a Boris Diaw type

Paolo and a first for Jeremy Sochan sounds about right.

I'm going to the Nets game tmrw so for selfish reasons I'm kind of hoping him and JI sit out and we win despite their absences.

My point exactly actually. They didn't know what to do with him on the court. Much less off.

I hope the Nets game turn out better than the last game you saw in person.

Also, I think Paolo plus 5 frp and 2 frp swaps should do it.

and thanks, I've been contemplating all week how the two games I attend this season may end up being the Ls at the start and end of our W streak

Deja vu along with being a little lazy today. The message still applies regardless...

"Gonna sound like a broken record in this mug but whatever...rebound, take care of the ball, and knock down the FTs. That is our formula to success.

Looking at the record of the Wizards could give us fans a false sense of security, but hopefully the Magic display maturity along with an appropriate fear of the opponent. The talent pool in the league is vast so the Wizards could sneak up if we're not careful. Gonna be great to watch some Magic basketball again at the end of the day...LET'S GO MAGIC!"

Let’s go boys. Feet the foot on the gas and win.
