GT#46: OKC Thunder @ Washington Wizards 2/1 7:00PM

[MikeTheKid]

All I know is if Scotty B. goes small like he did Wednesday and Lamb, Jones and D-Fish produce its a wrap!!!

[AWIZZINGBULLET]

On the plus side with John's All-Star selection, maybe he'll start to see more foul calls go his way.

Hopefully. Would probably lead to more foul calls going in favor of the Wizards as a whole.

See Blake Griffin...

Who was it on here that said last game: "Under .500 = Win / .500 = Loss"
Sure I'll go with that!

Zonker FTW!

[TGW]

This team suck balls. So I'm going to go with a WIN because they are inconsistent as hell and beat good teams.

edit: NM. OKC is going to win...changed my mind.

I was on alot of Clipps boards and there fans basically seem to be in love with us. They think our backcourt is great. They think that even after the 62 points we gave up in the 1st half that our D was the best they saw all year after that, specifically on the perimiter. They said that we fought through screens better than any team we played. They also said they shouldnt have won due to the fact we had a million open 3's that we normally wouldve made so they got lucky.

I rarely feel a confident boost after a L, even against great teams. Like the 1st OKC game, I just felt like we blew it and shouldve won but it didnt make me feel better or that we were on that level. This game was different. It seemed like the Clipps played great but we were still right there til the end. Im also liking the way KS & Book are playing off the bench to go along with Webster and I think Wall & Beal are about to be reboosted while Nene is looking fresh. I still hate the system but that Clipps game has me feeling alot different about this team, like we could possibly hit a switch soon and go to another level

Reddick and Collison torched Beal and Wall—36 points on 60% shooting. If they really are serious about being the best backcourt, they can't allow two average players like Reddick/Collison to light them up. I mean, imagine if Paul played (the best point guard in the NBA by far) the would have blown us out easily.

At some point, the results have to match the hype.

I hate making excuses, but they did do well defensively against Curry/Klay the night before. Fatigue was a factor...even then they had a chance to win it. Such is life :I

Having a decent rim protector would go a long way in helping when Wall/Beal decide to coast on D.

they didnt torch them. Alot of that was team stuff. Collinson nearly all his stuff off picks against bigs and Reddick got a millon points because of guys like Temple. You cant just look at the numbers without seeing how they were guarded and Collinson didnt do much in the 2nd half. I already said they had 62 at the half. They were speaking about the 2nd half. I know for a fact that Reddick had like 9 quick points at one point in the 2nd half and none were on Beal. They nearly all were because of Temple

$hit burgers of a referee crew helped decide the fate as well. The NBA is renown for star fooking referees, but that game was ridiculous. I'm beginning to feel about Griffin the way I once felt about Le-bon bon.

[WizardsWorld]

I almost always predict a Win for us.... however I can never bet against Durant. Don't think we get this one.... although with our good fortune lately against the good teams maybe we will.

They were awarded almost three times as many trips to the free throw line as the Wizards. That played a big part in the loss.

The loss to the Clippers left me feel ecstatic over how much better than mediocre that the Wizards looked. They played exceptionally well in the second half. There were a ton of bad calls, particularly in quarter 2, when the Clippers forged ahead. Nene would have had a very good game if not for officiating. Even with fouls on three point attempts by the Clips, and with a couple bad fouls by Ariza, and with the Wizards shooting 3-22 on threes; I watched the game twice and feel the Wizards looked to be the better team.

LAC had the best player by far, Griffin. Crawford shot lights out. Deandre Jordan owned the boards, particularly with so few minutes for Gortat. Yet, Seraphin scored in the paint well and so did Nene. Beal took it inside and of course Wall did, too. Washington played SICK defense in the third and early fourth.

As for the game with OKC, they'll be a on a back-to-back and I expect the Wizards will not only win, but Ariza should stop Durant's scoring binge of 30-pt games.

For everyone who love pics. Someone made awesome job with it

They might be well rested....they're given the nets quite the paddlin' at the moment.

[JWallConnect]

Durant's streak of 30+ points ended tonight(Didn't play the entire 4th)

Now let's end the Thunder's 10 game winning streak tomorrow

[wizardry]

We are going to get steam rolled.

[JWizmentality]

OKC caught us at a bad time. Under .500...we win

[mohammed10]

Ariza has to hold Durant to less than 40

Edited.

Where have you been? Griffin has been over-hyped for years...

FYI - He flops nearly as well as LeBron, too
