GT: Miami at Washington 1/20/16 7 PM

Last I checked Dragic and Udrih were out so Tyler Johnson was getting starters minutes. Porter, Hump and Gooden are also out and apparently Porter's hip isn't as strong as I had hoped it'd be :/ So we are looking at:

Wade-Johnson-Deng-Bosh-Hassan

Wall-Temple-Oubre-Dudley-Gortat

Key will obviously rebounding and guarding the P n R effectively. They have no outside threats sans maybe Green and Bosh. Of course Green is the type of guy to light us up.

Hope we pull out this road win, cause you know Miami fans will be in the building :evil:

Miami has lot five of their past 6 games. Although most of those losses appear to be against teams better than the Wizards (Golden State, OKC + Clippers) and on the road.

If I recall correctly, they were also down double digits at half time against the nuggets not too long ago. They had a great start with lots of home victories, but their margin of victory wasn't that impressive. In a lot of ways, I kind of see them as a version of us last season. Great start but due for a startling reality check.

Now, that doesn't mean we're any better this season. We suck balls. We're injured, give inconsistent effort and lack attention to detail... But hopefully MIA sucks more then us tonight. :nod:

Last games Dudley played like a chid who is lost in fog his D and overall play was awful. I would like some Drew as S4 but I read He is injuried again? What`s wrong with him?
About Miami I think their records are a lot better than their actual play. They are old and injuries will hunt them sooner or later.
Wizards are toying with us all season, when I think they are ready to pass .500 they are coming out against blazers without energy and are accepting asswhooping
We can win this one but again lost another chance to have winning
record

I'm fully expecting this slide to turn into a four to five game losing streak.

It starts tonight, with yet another poor showing in front of the home crowd.

no Wade tonight, which means there will probably be more spacing and Wall will coast more on defense... >.> hopefully I'm wrong on the latter two.

Nene is also starting tonight to counter their size I guess. Hopefully it goes better then it did against POR. :/

I feel optimistic about a win. Which scares me, we've lost more than we've won when I feel this way.

I got the same. When I feel too confident we are almost always lose

Nice shot John. Did you hang out on Route 1 after the Maryland game late last night?

I hope that's the first and last time we see a Nene/Gortat pick and roll. :-?

Damn Nene might be on a minutes limit, but he's not on a shot limit (lol). Good to see him play the 4 with Gortat.

Not hurt. One rebound in about 37 minutes last game got him some splinters.
