Whenever he's in the game slows to a crawl.

No fastbreak points etc.


Give the guy a break, he's 75 yrs old.

I'll take bad wins over good losses any day of the week. Looking at most Wizards seasons, we didn't have that choice.

Agreed. Let's not forget that the Wizards pulled off this "terrible win" with Pierce resting the entire game, and nobody other than Wall playing 30 minutes, yet we were still up 17 with 1:50 to go.

The box score looks like a San Antonio box score.

So he's on pace to be the worst backup big in the league for the 3rd year in a row...

Obviously he just needs some more time to figure things out. :banghead:

He's on pace for a nice Ernie extension too. I'm thinking 4 years $20 million, what a bargain for a young big with potential!!

Seems like whenever we have a big lead against a scrub team we take our foot off the gas. But the Knicks basically have a D League(at best)roster so the game was never really in doubt.
