We have to win eventually. I think coach Witt eventually is going to come-up with the best rotation for this current group to get us over the hump. If I were Ernie I would cut Martin and sign an attacker/finisher like Josh Akognon. Keep an eye on the D-league also.

Re: Pacers at Wizards tonight at Verizon
Pacer just as bad of a offensive team then us i think it be a close game. Pacers will win this game most likely even though this game and maybe the bobcats would be are best shot to get are first win. Roy Hibbert to me is a bit overrated he hasn't been doing much this year.

Re: Pacers at Wizards tonight at Verizon
Just tweeted that the Wizards have become the first team since Memphis in 01 and 02 to begin consecutive seasons 0-8. The only teams to do accomplish this feat? The Wizards of the past two seasons and the Memphis Grizzlies of 01 and 02.
We're seeing history men!
Eyeballing the game log from Memphis 0-8 (actually, they ran it to 0-9, but let's keep our focus for now), I see only 4 moral victories for the Grizzlies. Wiz have 7 so far. So, Wiz are significantly ahead in the rebuild -- 3 MVs ahead of Memphis's pace.

$1 is about 99 cents more than I'm willing to pay to watch this garbage excuse of a franchise.
Eric Maynor is the worst basketball player I've ever seen.

Re: Pacers at Wizards tonight at Verizon
If there was a game to win it would be tonight with the Pacers coming off a back to back and losing to the Knicks. Roy is struggling right now, we should really go in today. Either that or the Pacers will be motivated to win tonight and I will have to prep this:

Re: Pacers at Wizards tonight at Verizon
I just hope Randy is getting his sea legs and figures out better line ups then he did last game. Now that they have Livingston and Crawfords ankle seems to have healed, the rotations should be much easier for him.
Beating a dead horse. Price should not be starting. As is, Crawford is and he is mostly manning the PG so the real question is who is best to play at SG with him.
If you start Price, then you are saying its him. For me, I would start Webster. Any SG that goes 0-3 gets put on the bench and you roll out the next one. If Martin is hot, go with him. If not, sit him. SG is one of the easier positions to rotate. It not like PG where they need more time to manage the game and feel which player to get it to. Randy should be rotating them until he figures out which one is playing well that night. Non of them is established as consistent. I would give limit Beal to 15 minutes if he wasn't getting it done. They need a win. He should do whatever it takes to get one.
Crawford/Livingston
Webster/Beal then Price or Martin. I would try Martin first.
Trevor A/Singleton
Ves/Booker
Okafor/Kevin/Barron - If Kevin is playing like a baby Hughie, bring in Barron or put Booker there.
Sooner he figures out this rotation, the sooner they will win a game.

Re: Pacers at Wizards tonight at Verizon
I'm torn. I have been on record as not liking the tank philosophy, but I really want Ernie gone. The best way to Ernie to go soon is for the team to be pathetically embarassing and a win here or there just delay Ernie's firing. That being said, we can go 0-15 and Ted still might just stick with Ernie.

I don't mind tanking if we draft a star and get Ernie fired. If we get a top 3 draft pick and we are getting a very good player and we shall take a step forward in are rebuilding process.

I'm not torn. I want to lose every single game until EG is fired. That's how much he has whittled me down as a fan: seeing a game on the schedule that we have an outside shot of winning isn't uplifting, it's depressing.
