Battle of the Heavy-weights: OKC @ WAS

[hands11]

Congrats to McGuire on his first ever double-digit scoring game!

The wizards are winning this game because two players are playing like true all stars (playing above average man to man defense and above average offensively). no blatche and dmac aren't allstars but they are playing that way this game. A true allstar is dominant on both side of the court. Two players that are playing above average man to man defense and above average offensively are...
blatche and Dmac.

We expect jamison to be an offensive specialist...but offensive specialist don't get stops on defense. Dmac has shut off driving lanes...so not only is he rebounding but stopping easy penetration and challenging shots on the perimeter. something jamison and caon don't do.

TAn is a good center if he is playing against someone 6'9 or shorter at center position.

I'll ask again. Place add spaces.

This is the start of a 5 game winning streak.

The Wizards will be front page news in a week and the talk of the NBA. Barkley and Kenny will be eating their words which are already pasted on every Wizards locker.

You heard it here first

13-2 over the next 15 games 17-24 by Jan 22nd. .416% and just 2 slots out of the 8th spot.

From worst start ever to biggest turnaround ever.

Dude, let me get some of what your smoking, that must be some good ish!

I'd bet serious money (and I'm not much of a gambler) that the Wizards go closer to 2-13 the next 15 games than the other way around. This team will be hard pressed to win 20 this year.

I'd reckon they'll even probably lose tonite with Caron not playing.

Hmm, 1-0. Actually 2-0 if you count CLE

Injured Houston up next....
