I think it leaves you too thin. That said, Winston hasn’t done anything
in a game to justify his roster spot. I like the Spartan pedigree so it’d be
nice if possible to hang onto him a bit longer. Sometimes you just can’t.

A lot of what we call 'thought' is just mental activity

I really like Marv as play x play guy. Fratello looked terrible and showing clear
signs of age.
I love Marv, but after the 10th time he got Hutchison mixed up with Hachimura, it became a bit distracting. Fratello is good, but he looked tired, and his retirement gift joke fell flat at the end. Marv's a legit legend in this business. Say something classy about him, at least.
I thought it was fine. The joke is that Marv and Fratello don't really like really like each other - at least they pretend to when they broadcast the game.
But the garbage time showed why Marv had to go- he honestly may have had at least 10 mistakes.

Marv, even at his advanced age, still couldn’t reach Dick Stockton levels
of cluelessness. But maybe time to bow out.

Marv I felt bad for. A few times up the court he lost track of the action or was still narrating the last play. Or gave the wrong information. I used to watch him with the Knicks and he was excellent. But this time I kept thinking: execs dropped Buckhantz from the air when this is sportscasting we get on a national broadcast?

I’m a fan of Buckhantz but he also was no longer on the top of his game and was beginning to make too many mistakes.

One other thing
Vs BOS both Bertans and Neto flat out sucked. And we got blown out.
Vs IND, they were both efficient and we blew them out.

I am one of the people that still believes in him.
He needs to put in more work on his game. He ain’t Siakem by a long shot yet.
Understatement of the season.

No way to know anything much about Winston -- he's only played 100 minutes.
But, I don't think it'll be difficult to hold on to him: he's a 2 way player, & I doubt there'll be much interest from other teams.

Scotty and really dumbass roster construction. Westbrook, Neto, Smith AND Winston? Geez, more cowbell more PGs.
Tre Johnson is the future of the Wizards.
