Maynor, at this point, is cap ballast. Temple may be a really bad offensive player, but he's an immensive upgrade defensively. He won't be high usage, so we'll never see the stupid floaters again.

Seraphin+Maynor for Novak...Do it Masai!

I've done some research, and can't find mention of Maynor lighting cats on fire. Link?

I can't prove that he did, but you can't prove he didn't.

The absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.

It happened in Arenas' bathroom.

I'm not saying he didn't do it. I'm saying without the full story we can't rush to judgement. I mean, how deserving of immolation were these cats? Some cats these days gallivant around in very flammable fur and are just asking to be ignited.

Is this not further evidence that a house-cleaning is in order at the FO? The same decision-makers who brought you the disastrous 2011 draft ("unanimous" in Vesely), also thought that Eric Maynor was worthy of a 2-year deal early in FA.

This guy is trade-able tomorrow, right? Keep hope alive ._.

I'd take a D-League PG right now.

Chris Singleton and Eric Maynor - "Garbage Time All-Stars" tonight

Seraphin, Harrington, Booker, Vesely, Singleton, Maynor and Temple - are ample reason to have the FO dismissed.

Booker may be coming around, but I don't think it will be in time.

Leaving Harrington out of the discussion (comparatively ancient), the other six are aged 23-27, in their 3rd-5th year. Not saying Booker is or should be a big part of the Wizards' future, but look at this comparison:

Compared to the others, Booker stands out as having had a pretty solid career, the entire career. Regardless of his shortcomings, no GM should be crucified for choosing him with the 23rd pick.

Booker's always been a pretty competent player. The problem with him is injuries and his relative lack of bulk. No issue with him as a draft pick.

Booker has never looked this good though. He looked good over a year ago, but he never made the mid range like he is now. His last 3 games have not been normal Booker. But for as good as he has looked, he isn't a starter. He defense is to limiting.

And Kevin made some really nice moves last night.

And the last two games, the bench has looked pretty good actually. They even scored 32 pts last night and 25 the night before.

Just when it looks like the ship is sinking, I think things could start to turn for him. Otto will find his legs. Singleton hit two nice 3 ball last night. Booker has look good on offense and rebounding. He defense still is a problem though. Glen is playing great D and starting to get a feel for the NBA game with ever new minute he gets. Webster should find his grove by next game after being out a few games with a back ankle. Beal will be back soon. Ves is starting to show some offensive assertiveness. He made a really nice left handed move.

I'm actually looking forward to seeing the next 10 games. Specially if Nene's new treatment gets him better.

Gotta a get a win and break this losing streak.

REALLY disagree on Seraphin. Worst shot selection I've ever seen. That has not improved in 4 years. He refuses to pass the ball.

Then you REALLY need to watch more basketball.

He played during the entire come back and was a one of the main reason they cut the 22 pts deficit down. He made several really nice plays.

Post .. catch spin baby left hook for 2 was real nice.
Post up. Dribble Pump fake dunk was real nice. Very patient. He doesn't usually do that.
Post high feed from Trevor A for a nice finer roll move
Defended Griffin on the reverse dunk attempt on the next play.
