I'd strongly consider sitting Beal also. If there was ever a time we needed Pierce to turn back the clock, it's tonight.

I don't like Horford. Not one bit. You know who he plays like.. NOAH...

He sticks his leg out two miles wide on picks.
He travels
He injured Beal getting under his feet.
He runs right at players and sets moving picks just like Noah zone blocking.

You want to know what Noah would look like he he could shoot better..

He would be Horford.

I never watched him a lot but respected him game. Now I despise the dude like I do Noah.

Well, Horford and Noah were very successful teammates in college - along with Cory Brewer of the Rockets. Horford actually was the center on defense and Noah was like a free safety. I'd gladly take either one of them on my team. And Horford did not intentionally injure Beal. I want the Wiz to crush and humiliate Atlanta in 4 games - without inventing reasons why.

Who said he intentionally did it ?

Nothing was invented in my post. This intentionally injured Beal seems to be your invention. All I said it that he injured Beal by getting under feet. Which he did.

Garrett Temple tonight? Split John's minutes btw Ramon getting extra and DOOM. Maybe a spot sighting of jitterbug Bynum.

Screw ATL

We got this.

Session for the lock down D on Teague.

We got plenty of horse.

Wizard 2-0 coming home.

Sit Beal too. Having him 75% playing games 2 through (potentially) 7 vs. having him at 90-100% for games 3 through (potentially) 7 should be a no-brainer.

I'm not as concerned as I thought I would be about John out. Obviously he's been the engine ever since Round 1 Game 2, but I've got faith in our veterans to step it up. Has been a team effort to get this far. I think the squad will be extra motivated to pull out the victory FOR John. They gotta know how much he wants it, whether he's on the court or not.

Blowout city tonight.

Good decision to rest Wall but Beal should sit too.

This probably means less small ball and more Nene post ups. We'll see how this plays out

What ?

No way.

Winning this game is to huge and we are going to win it.

ATL will be over confident.

WIZ troops will dig deep and rally.

Nope. You play Beal but if the game gets out of hand you pull him quick.

and the 1st scenario could get worse given the risk that playing hurt so soon leaves u susceptible to more injury

hands, I love the optimism. I really do. But it's not happening. I get that we all WANT the Wall-less Wizards to take game 2 in Atlanta but it ain't happening. Maybe a 10% chance and that's awfully generous.

I'm thinking about the war, not the battle. We accomplished what we wanted (taking a game in ATL). Time to get healthy.

What ?

No it doesn't. This doesn't effect small ball.

Sessions will start.

Will will back him up.

That why we got him. If they need some D help, Temple is there in case they need him.

We will be fine.

Put me in the play Beal and pull him if it gets ugly camp. I see the "war not battle" argument. Understand it. But let's fight for this W.

Been posting on the Celtics Board for 11 years & still do.

Posted Truth posts on the Nets Board last year.

And this year I followed Paul to the Wiz Board.

Human nature is very consistent. Every board has its consistently negative posters.

Brighten up! :0)
