Can we fast forward to NEXT offseason?

Add KD and a coach to that group and we're talking multiple championships
In Rizzo we trust

Great thread idea! Wall was a real "G" to play with a broken hand, Beal got more aggressive as the playoffs progressed, and Porter was a revelation. These guys are the future, and if we can get a coach who can use them properly - the future is bright!

Thanks guys! Go Wiz!

Great thread. These three give me hope should we fire the management and coaching staff. Loved porters contributions and Beals focus. Walls heart and determination are elite.

Wall/Beal/Porter all under 25 years old, that's a core to be excited about.

The future is bright. This team is pretty close to making an ECF.

The real question is, can we afford all 3 in the future? Or are we facing a Westbrook KD Harden situation?

Maybe we can trade Beal for Kendrick Perkins

with how the cap will balloon, we ought to be fine. Hopefully we land a good impact stretch big in this draft class.

Yep we already have our franchise player in Wall locked up, under the old cap.

It would really help if we could find a quality PF in this draft, someone who's good enough to start on their rookie contract.

They would have made it this year if Wall was 100%.

In order to be perennial ECF contenders though we'll have to get younger at PF.

I really like the Wall/Beal/Porter group though,man. All three of them are great two-way players. That right there is the PG/SG/SF for a longterm 2000s Pistons type squad.. we just need the PF/C

Great season. After living my entire life in the DMV I'm moving out to CA for a new job. Watching local wizards games is one thing I'll miss the most. Extremely sad to see this season end.

Nice man. Socal or Norcal? Got to get that NBA League Pass. You can watch the local Buckhantz feed via League Pass. I think it's $120/yr. Not bad if you watch every game.

Gonna be in San Francisco. Joining the sad culture of true gentrifiers and tech bros. Definitely going to get NBA LP. Only problem is the time delay. :cry:

Bradley Beal during the Atlanta VS Washington 6 Game Series:

25.1PPG, 5.0AST, 5.5REB, 1.5STL, 2.8TOs, 38.8% from 3, shooting 41.8% from the field.


Played his *** off and he put 'All Star' Kyle Korver in the torture chamber on defense. Anyone still hating on Beal and calls yourself a Wiz fans, just ban yourself

It's not that bad. You get 5 teams all access for the 120 bucks.
Furthermore, SF is awesome. I was very close to taking a job at Tesla. Enjoy it man.
