Stevenson does that "I can't feel my face" Tony Yayo thing after he makes a big shot that's why he has that Lil Wayne phrase on his shirt.

NOT POSSIBLE


Exactly, this game calls for tall-ball, Howard can be slowed-down if he has an agressive big guarding him. Hedo & Lewis might abuse us all night if they aren't too tired from last nights game. Arroyo also carved us up pretty good last year.

i can't feel my face is a reference to doing to much cocaine and having ur face become numb which is hilarious because it has nothing to do with basketball at all...

This game thread fails, shame on you for putting Deanna and Kelly on there and not our hotter dancers. :(

Should be a well fought game tonight.

i'll be in the house again tonight, hope it's better than the home opener was. we need brendan to be a defensive monster like he was in the 4th against the hornets and maybe some combo of blatche/mcguire can give either turkoglu or lewis fits. the thought of AJ/songaila chasing them around the perimeter early on has me a bit worried. the wiz have a tendency to let their guard down when things start to go well, and winning 4 of 5, having arenas back at practice, the magic on the second of a back-to-back seems to be a recipe for that. let's hope antawn stays hot and helps us get back to .500.

My season tickets are in 417 - Row G.

It's actually a really good view of the game from that section (right at mid court, opposite the team benches).

Look for the frazzled bald guy with two adorable kids. The wife'll join us later.

I'm sure I'll step on your toes at some point tonight (my seats, 9 and 10, are directly in the middle of the section).

Edit to add:

Oh man, CSN just did an interview with Pech where they replayed the "I get buckets, son" clip four times.

Not the start we were looking for.

Extremely porous defense (both man and help -- both outside and inside), and we can't hit a thing.

So far, we've only gone to Jamison in the post once. Instead of Songaila/Haywood iso's, we should probably look to our leading scorer.

As odd as it sounds, this may have been a game where starting Dominic McGuire would be a good idea. Songaila and AJ on Lewis and Turk just isn't a pretty sight.

Daniels really needs to stick to Jameer Nelson. He's done an awful job on him so far.

Haywood doing a real nice job on Howard except for that first possession of the game.

Great hustle there from Antawn - diving on the floor and saving possession for the Wiz.
