Let's see if he can inspire the others. Some Pierce at the 4 would also help.

Great play. I wish the people in the stands near the play appreciated the effort more :nonono: .

The only thing keeping me optimistic is getting Durant in 2016. Up until then, the goal should only be to show off Wall and Beal as running mates and to have as few contracts on the books in 2016 as possible.

Well by the looks of it, we're probably gonna draw Chicago in the first round again, assuming we don't drop past Milwaukee. They're the only good team in the east I feel confident going up against in a series, especially with Rose out again.

That's all I got.

I think this is a little more likely than everyone is thinking since we've started to tank. I think the KD decision will mostly come down to whether he wants to come home to play or not. He will expect talent to follow him, wherever he goes, and that includes coaching.

And if not, we wait for DeMarcus Cousins in 2018. :-?

Wizards SRS says they're still 0.23 points per game better than average.

So, they've got that going for them.

This suckage will allow us to be satisfied if the team doesn't get swept in the first round of the playoffs. Ted's primary goal isn't to compete for championships. It's all about managing expectations. Competing for a championship would be counter-productive, because it would set people's expectations at a level they wouldn't be able to reach in the future.

Ted has been unsurprisingly quiet on the Wizards front in his blog. Not surprised...when the team is winning, he's the biggest fanboy ever, but when they suck he goes into hibernation.

Reminds me of another poster on this forum. I'd put money on millillie11 and Ted being the same person. Millie is probably italian for "Ted"

It's still not too early to tank. Sorry, that's the best I've got.

We have Wall. Now we just need to surround him with talent that fits the modern NBA.
