This game could get ugly with no Wall, Nene, Booker or Pargo. I would have to guess they get Okafor and Booker out there just to keep things some what sane.

I gotta feeling that Booker is going to be surprisingly good this year and emerge as one of our primary scoring options. His build and style of play reminds me so much of Paul Millsap.


Agreed. He might be the most underrated player on the team. He's a hard worker that has made vast improvements in areas like ball-handling (especially his off-hand), post moves, and his jumpshot, and I expect more progress this yr.

In my memory as a Wiz fan Seraphin has made the biggest leap. There were times where Blatche teased the leap but quickly came back down to Earth. I'm talking young talent there were some guys who were talented when they got here that I'm not counting. Who else was a guy we drafted or traded for in his first contract that made that kind of leap?

Last practice you can see them trying everyone at PG

Pargo, Mack, AJ and Crawford.

Seem Pargo is separating himself.

Pargo vs Felton
Beal vs JR Smith
C Singleton vs Melo -No idea who start here. I can see them giving Chris a chance in preseason.
Booker vs Amare - Since Booker hasn't practiced the last few day, more likely to be Kevin
Okafor vs T Chandler

Maybe they go

Pargo
Webster
Trevor A
Kevin
Okafor

Its nice to have a few vets on the team. I'm starting to feel a little more comfortable with what they may be able to do until they get Wall and Nene back. They may actually be ok.

I heard Pargo was are best player in Tuesday Practice for a 32 year old guy he still has a lot left in tank his jumper is wet. I think he should start for us during the regular season as john wall continues to recovery.

I agree Pargo should start. He's never been a good playmaker, but he can shoot. However, if he's starting, Crawford has to be on the bench. We can't have 2 chuckers in the starting lineup. I'll go with Pargo and Beal as our starting backcourt till Wall comes back. Crawford was awful in the open scrimmage; took a lot of contested jumpers and was his same inefficient self. If he doesn't improve this season, we shouldn't even bother picking up his team option.

No Oak tonight.

Stomach virus. :roll:

If they don't have Booker either, this is going to get ugly.

We would only have Kevin, Ves for our front court without Nene, Okafor or Booker.

We saw that last game against Charlotte. NY would eat them alive.

Oh well, at least we get to look at other pieces like Beal, Pargo and Webster to see what they have.

Ugh. It's to the point that I don't even like seeing Crawford's wild jumpers go in.

Yeesh. That is an ugly starting 5.

Pretty much guaranteed a top 5 pick if Wall and Nene can't get healthy sooner rather than later.

So far they've only ran one post up play for Seraphin. Everything else has been guard play...

If Pargo is the best player in any practice, god help this team.

I forgot just how horrible and boring it is to watch this team.

Time to watch the VP debate.

Yeah riiiiiight. Okafor, Nene, and Booker, will all be rotating on the DNP list. We better keep the maximum number of players.

Crawford is looking terrible out there. The MSG announcers are saying "he's a pretty good offensive player."

Ooh, here comes Beal - who instantly gets a steal. :)

So far the highlight of this game was RDB's fast break assist to Chris Singleton...

Love how active Beal is off the ball. Reminds me a little of rookie rip.
