Washington had a great run with Arenas, but damn, this is a TEAM.

One through fifteen, Washington has basketball players, very refreshing.

Great overall win!
Largest margin of the victory this season I believe.
Raps are slowing down.
If we can keep up and withstand the surge of the crabbaliars, Witt might could very well b coaching at ASG.

I'd love to know what was going through McGee's head this game. He sat for most of the consequential part and got totally clowned when he was in there.

Johnny gonna put him on Shaqtin a fool

You called that, though nowadays he can just show up and be a punch line. Even the way he lines up for foul shots cracks me up. But if you can get the ball to him when he's right above the rim, that dude is money.

For a crappy Randy offense... that was some beautiful basketball.

They are really racking up the assists as a team. Smart play but everyone. Always looking for the next pass.

Maybe Randy's offense didn't suck and it just took the right players gelling and playing the right way.

He has always preached moving the ball from side to side.

No doubt, Wall and Miller are playing great and oiling the machine, but its everyone on the team buying into the team concept that is taking it over the top. Even Kevin S is passing well.

He had to feel humiliated.

I have a soft spot in my heart for that young man. He's a nice guy who has some limitations.

Awesome.

Especially with Nene bringing it off the bench.

If he buys in to reduced minutes that's a good thing.

Its not if CCJ. I posted the link and I can send you the video. He is all in for a min limit so he can stay healthier.

I see now reason Randy would switch this up. Him coming off the bench is awesome and Hump and Gortat are rolling as starters. It give Gortat room to be the number one option and Hump doesnt mind playing 2nd fiddle and rebounding and hitting mid range shots.

This is sweet.

Good golly! Every Wizards player on the floor tonight, every single one, played positive minutes.

And, CCJ, I wouldn't say Rasual is playing at "almost all-star" level -- he's playing at an all star *starter* level! He looks like he owns the basketball court.

I've been watching NBA ball for a lot of decades, and I've never seen a guy transform in this way. It's almost more fun watching him play defense than offense!

Denver came in confident, a hot team, and they got off to a fast start on us too. Then Beal hit those three 3-pointers in a row, and the game was over!

Is this what it feels like to have an elite team? Spurs fans can kick rocks!! Spoiled mofos!!

Your compassion towards others does not have any limitations. You are a gem, CCJ.

Kevin has finally learned how to play and is now a keeper. DaJuan Blair who?

Its great to see him with the ball in hand at the top of the key and instead of freaking out, he just waits for the cutter to get open or for the play to develop.

He still makes some bad mistakes at times and for some reason doesn't have good hands catching the ball.

But he is improving. You can see him settling down a little at a time.

Seraphin keep serving me crow

John Wall was fabulous tonight. If you want to pick nits, I thought he took 2 bad jumpers (I had not problem with the long two with the shot clock running down). But his pushing the tempo, passing, defensive hustle, etc were all fabulous and infectious.

Another inconspicuously fabulous game for Otto Porter -- 7 boards, 4 dimes, a steal and 2 blocks in 23 minutes. Love that.

My offseason optimism and 47 win projection was informed by two words: depth matters. That fact was on clear display when the ten-deep Spurs wiped the floor with the Lebrons in the Finals. The Wizards don't have a championship quality roster, but damn, they have lots and lots of good players.

Beal's jumpshot is gorgeous. March looks great diving on the pick and roll. Nene off the bench will be great. Hump is beastly. Happy night. Enjoy it and then on to Boston for a business trip. I want that one for Paul.

Yep. My favorite stretch of this incredibly entertaining game was that series of possessions mid fourth when Seraphin just absolutely took it to McGee.

The winner will be..
