All these years I've never looked at Atlantas logo so closely to realise its a actually a hawk.

This is a tough matchup for the Wiz . They have a better offense and Wiz a better defense hopefully Brad increases the offense. You should still win but will be very close since Atlanta is better than what they are showing on the season.
Good luck.

Hopefully another good game for the Wizards.
All time scoring list:
...
16. Reggie Miller 25 279 pts
17. Jerry West 25 192 pts18. Paul Pierce 25 188 ptsThe Truth needs just 4+ points to move up to 17th place on the all time scoring list.
Go Wizards !
Go Pierce !

Atlanta has a tough front line; if Nene has to rest, we'll need big games from Gooden and Hump to pick up the W.

Paul will pass West on Tuesday night.
Paul will past Miller in 8-9 games.
Paul will easily pass English & probably pass Garnett (who barely scores these days for the Nets) by the end of this RS.
Then he will be #14 All Time.
During his final season in 2015-2016, absent significant injury, he has a fighter's chance to pass Hondo, Nique, the Big O & Hakeem & retire the TENTH mother freaking leading scorer in mother freaking NBA history!!!

Their spacing is superb. My guess is that they should hold Nene out for this one and use Pierce at the 4. I suspect Otto should be good to go. Gortat, Hump and Seraphin might be all the size we need to handle them inside. Horford seems to be having a down year, odd, I thought for a while he might be the best big in the East (pre pec tears). :/

Why is our schedule so wacky this year? It's like all we do is play back to backs and then wait 4 days before playing again.
Atlanta always plays us tough so I expect a close game but we should win.

Me neither. I thought it was a crescent moon until a few months ago.

I would start Gooden at the 4 and keep the rest of the rotations as close to normal as possible.
Depending on how things are going, we can always go small with PP @ 4 if we need to.
Teague may go off.
Curious how long KSera can keep it up.

The Hawks are sort of the Wiz's mirror image -- 23rd in DRtg, 10th in Ortg.
Kyle Korver is shooting a ridiculous 57% from 3 on nearly 6 attempts per game. His TS% is .723. We should probably guard him.

We're not as bad offensively as they are defensively and their not as good offensively as we are defensively.

Wall should win this game on his own. He always kills Teague and the Hawks suck on D. Should have a huge game. Also this is the perfect game to start Beal. If he doesmt then Witt is an idiot. I dont get why we would start Gooden over Hump but Im sure it will happen so I wont waste time. Anyways, the backcourt will decide it and we will easi;y win those matchups. It would be great to see Butler be in over Temple but Im betting Temple comes in 1st

just thought it was a circle with a chunk missing. Dunno. Hawks have just been so irrelevant.

You sir are correct. But I'd say that's more easily said than done. KK reminds me somewhat
(ok poor man's version) of Reggie Miller and/or Rip Hamilton. He's constantly in motion,
they run a ton of screens for him (good strategy) and he's got a pretty quick release.
