Outside of Wall nobody showed up to play, and Nene's free-throw shooting is becoming a serious issue.

Ha, I was just posting that I like this lineup for some number of minutes per game... :)


That line up lives or dies on whether the swingmen are able to hit open Js. Today, Beal, Webster, *and* Ariza are struggling.

Yep, when Ariza and Beal go 3 for 20 - you won't win many games...

Another hurdle this team can't pass at home. Mediocre is as mediocre does. :roll:

At least Wall is taking the ball to the rim late in the game.

We still need to play all our games on the road, though. :nonono:

What compounds the issue is when Nene jacks up nothing but jumpers either. Numerous times when he was matched up with Josh Smith and he's taking step back jumpers.

Sickening.

We need a 3. As poorly as we defended and shot all night, not over yet.

Wow. Wall is playing like a superstar. Huge defensive play right there.

Really laughable when people question Wizards fans when the home team continues to lay eggs against sup bar opponents.

Lol, Nene has a layup, turns it over.

Ugh. Just take that layup Nene!

I've seen 8-year olds handle it better than Beal, Webster and Ariza. :oops:

So sick of it, what a joke.

Beal picked a great night for yet another complete no show.

John's teammates failed him tonight.

Ariza has an excuse because he rebounded, defended, and passed.. but Beal was absolutely useless. He can't have games like this if we're going to be a good team. His low is TOO low

Cant get too down.

The Pistons needed this game. They played like it.

For a 6'4 guard, you would think Beal's handles should be better.
