YOUR Washington Bullets are 40-28 AND 9-13 in their last 22 games. With 14 games left in the season, they are 9 games shy of being the 9th seed and 1/2 game back from homecourt advantage in the first round. Which do you prefer? I prefer what gets Ted Leonsis to #FireGrunfeld. This will be a recurring theme.

The Wiz are coming off a big W over the red hot Utah Jazz. They are in LA for the 2nd time this season but this time it is to play the Clippers, a team the Wizards handled at home in December due to Wall's defense on Chris Paul.

The Clippers are 44-25 and fighting to keep pace with the Mavericks and Spurs as they are all jockeying into postseason position.

HERE'S your lineups.

Big game. Huge.

TOR @ CHI tonight as well. So if we can win. That's either going to tighten the standings or give up home court if CHI loses.

Looks like we ware locked in for no worst then 5th

He'll play... he wants to keep his consecutive games streak alive. He is stubborn about it.

I expect a loss. I loathe the clippers but they're a good team getting their 2nd best player back. Unless we get a good Beal and Nene game, don't think we get this one.

When we beat them in DC, Wall was bothering CP3 a LOT on defense.

Beal also had a great game.

But in LA, I feel like some BA fouls will be rewarded due to the Clippers flopping

Gortat and Gooden are good floppers too.

They are a good team but we match up fairly well. Our best defenders are matched up against their two best offensive players, Griffin and Paul.

Wall's ankle is definitely a concern though. Trying to guard Paul with a bad ankle could be trouble.

Well TOR lost to CHI... Not going to get 4th tonight but a win will tighten things up

Wall only has one win over Chris Paul. That came the last time they faced each other.

Tonight the Wizards will absolutely, positively, definitely, certainly lose.

I've done my part. :)

Ralph Lawler is retiring. If any of you are watching Fox Sports West this is probably the last time you get to see and hear him call a Wizards game.
