Wall's foul shooting is a big help closing out a game.

I feel like NBA players don't know what the word humble means.

After a bad third quarter, that was a statement by John. We are not going to fold like we have in the past. Great night.

John Wall with the Harden-esque step back 3? That **** was just NASTY

And Nene posterized LeBron. GOOD NIGHT!

And why would he not deserve it? Wizards looking as if they could be a top team in the East. Made a statement tonight.

It's weird but at least he took John out when he was playing better so he doesn't go to the bench frustrated. I'm just sick about him playing 8 guys for 2 straight games with a healthy team. An NBDL coach wouldn't do that.

Actually, lots of coaches have stuck with a short rotation. Good coaches... maybe not in this era but certainly done a lot before and by very good coaches.

Not defending Wittman though... not sure what his thinking is but it does seem to be working.

This is not your typical team with so many injury-prone players. My main issue with that is you are starting to play Nene 35+ minutes and it's tough to imagine he's going to hold up the rest of the year playing that many minutes.

You are probably right on that accord... I pointed it out earlier as well. Just saying that there are many coaches - and good ones - that went with short rotations.

Zonker, you can come back up - bring another 6 pack with you... that is two games in a row!!!

Great win. I hope we can build off this one.

We play so much better with Nene in the starting lineup. Gets all our shooters much more easier shots. Really hope he can stay healthy.

Looked at Nene statline and seen 9 assists and had to double check to make sure I wasn't looking at Wall's

If we play like this every night, the east is in trouble.

WHAT A GAME! We knew the Heat (and the refs) had a run in them. Have to give praise where praise is due too. Wall had some real bad plays at the end of the end of the second and in the third, but he game to play in the fourth. And Nene's block on Lebron.... :rockon:

I'll dream about that one. Last two games the defense has looked real solid. Cheers everyone!

man that felt good

I mean everyone knows Nene is great. It's just about his health. Really wish he was five years younger for us so he could do this every night.

Fire Wittmann before the ASG

Still sort of can't believe we didn't blow it.

All praise goes to Ted, Ernie and Randy. Great management trio. Their dedication is paying off.

We could do some serious damage on this home stand.
