We win this game, Hawks next round? How did we do against them in the regular season? I have a feeling we split the series, I know we beat them at least once right?

Washington went 3-1 against Atlanta.

President Donald Trump referred to African countries, Haiti and El Salvador as "shithole" nations during a meeting Thursday and asked why the U.S. can't have more immigrants from Norway.

You've already been suspended once. Otherwise, I'd tell you to post the following on the GB:

Washington: 44-38
Charlotte: 43-39

How many suspensions do I get before I'm banned. Do I get a get out of jail free card for good behavior? Because, depending on how the Wizards play going forward I guarantee you that I'll be suspended again. So it's in your best interest to do it now otherwise you'll be held liable for future damages when you knew I was a threat.

And you what, that would make you no better than Donald Sterling who was a blatant racist and enabled for so long. Let that stew on you for a second.


Dude, I'm trying to see you NOT suspended. DO NOT GO TO THE GB AND BAIT THE LOLCATS FANS.

Stick around here and flame away on Doc's talk trash thread.

I'm the good guy, I don't want you suspended. (I can't speak for Miller, though. And remember, he's a global).

You need an intervention.

Too bad Donkey is on paternity duty.

If you're going to get yourself suspended, get a sock puppet with IP mask or something. Don't get your real, long term identity suspended or banned. Especially over salty LOLcats fans.

The Hawks won't be very tough. They've been totally dependent on their 3 point shooting. If you take that away from them they don't have much other than Teague driving and some nice shots Millsap will get.

Historically, teams don't do well on the road in game 5 with a 3-1 series lead. The overall record of teams in this situation is 1-16 in the first round. 16-48 overall.

Washington went 3-1 against Atlanta.

And the loss was when they had Horford. We are 3-0 against them without Horford.

You guys are messing around with the basketball gods talking about the next round. This series isn't over yet.

Just need Nets to finish off Toronto, then beat Miami as Wiz bake Hawks, then lose to Wiz, to complete the Wizards Rube Goldbergian path to the finals. Go Wiz!

We kinda gave away that win. Should've swept them.

I think that's a popular superstitious belief given this city and this franchise, but only 8 teams out of 217 have surpassed the 3-1 deficit.

Throughout the history of the NBA, we can't be the only ones who have looked ahead to the 2nd round.

Those teams:

1968 Boston Celtics - Russell Dynasty

1970 Los Angeles Lakers - West, Chamberlain, Baylor

1979 Washington Bullets - Good ol' Unseld, Hayes, and Co.

1981 Boston Celtics - Bird, McHale, Parrish

1995 Houston Rockets - Hakeem, Drexler

1997 Miami Heat- Hardaway, Mourning

2003 Detroit Pistons - Wallace, Hamilton, Billups

2006 Phoenix Suns - Nash, Stat

2014 Chicago Bulls - Noah, Gibson and......Augustine

If we lose this series, it would be bar none the worst series collapse in NBA history imo.

Return to Washington Wizards
