Nevermind. THAT's the more fitting ending. The man who could do no wrong with the game-ending dunk.

No faulting the team.

I question going to Nick the second time late in OT. He just threw it away.

Caron's got 17/12/12 and he is the league's second best FT shooter.

Butler's got to get the ball there. Not Nick.

Why is Dave Branch interviewing Kobe? Am I missing something?

The reffing was so bad. Great game to watch but the Lakers were handed that game.

Nick Young and Stevenson were amazing

I just keep going back to overtime when we had a 4pt lead. Hard to believe we lost by 6.

I was very impressed with Nick Young tonight. Kid's got some serious potential.

How can you say that after watching him light it up in the late 4th quarter and OT?

Wizards need to rebound the ball. Maybe sit Haywood a game if he's not right.

Perimeter strategy on defense seems totally whack.

At least the Wizards can hit the three this season.

Rebounding and defense are off

Dave Branch just probably fainted. He was sweating more than Kobe!

Dude, dude!

Yes I was watching the game. Even ignoring Young's careless throw away earlier, you go with your best player in that situation.

You know, the guy that can get any shots he wants to and leads the league in free throw percentage?

we lost to a team who happens to be one of the best in the Western Conference and one that has the best player in the game playing for them, not to mention it was on the road...don't try to take away from what we did there tonight

The only thing that bothered me about the game. Caron's the man.

Not Nick.

Even if Nick had 40 you give the ball to Caron there.
