Some of that is clearly due to Wall missing a significant chunk of time, but that doesn't explain all of it. They are running way more isolation sets, and they're not moving the ball quickly enough to get good looks from 3-point range.

It's not all bad news though. The Wizards' free throw rate has risen from 25th best last year to 8th best this year.

With a bad loss at home to the Cavs, the home stand continues against the Pelicans. The Wiz have played decent defense since the beginning of the season but haven't put too many 48 minute games. Here's hoping that Otto Porter can come back to give the lineup a boost.

The Pelicans are 15-15 and coming off an OT loss to the Nuggets. They, in #SoWizards fashion, choked a big lead to play a close one in Denver. Anthony Davis has been hobbled. Demarcus Cousins (who we all want to be DC-bound somehow) has been putting up big numbers.

How dominated will the Wiz front court be? Can the Wiz guard the likes of Jrue Holiday? Yours truly will be in the arena and...

I'M NOT OPTIMISTIC!

Bench:

Who are all these people? I swear, I think these mug shots are the same faces game after game, team after team, with different uniforms photo shopped in.

Quick, someone name the backup PF for the Pels.

Dante Cunningham!

Gortat can slow down Cousins, but... who in the wide world o wiz is going to stop Anthony Davis? Are you telling me that far less than 100% Otto is going to contain Davis? Or a far less than 100% Keiff is going to contain Davis? Put Mahinmi in at PF? It'll take 5 minutes for him to foul out. Same with Smith. Is it too late to sign Christian Wood and play him tonight?

Our best bet is probably flipping those matchups with Morris on Cousins and Gortat on Davis.

Either way, I've already decided that this game is a good candidate to skip.

Between Rondo exploiting our terrible pick and roll coverage and the Pelicans towers destroying our front court I really don't see a static offense chucking up jumper after jumper being a recipe for success.

Cmon. “Dante Cunningham” is not a real person.

Awesome game thread, FAH!

Who cares about the game?

Obviously, the only thing that matters is how DeMarcus Cousins does.

From the 2009 Villanova Final 4 team. He's also from Maryland.

Of course they had to make up a believable backstory for him. Otherwise everyone would see right through what is obviously a $1 bet along the lines of trading places to see how well a team with a supporting cast made up from "scouting" the starting PGs of the 2011 eastern conference playoffs and a bunch of fictional players. Dante Cunningham? What's next? Froot Loops are all the same flavor?

Nice try FAH.

How did you hack into CBuck’s account?

Who is that person with his/her back turned toward the camera playing the role of “Dante Cunningham?”

Black hoodie and no face showing? Yeah, pretty obvious who this is:

The young people say "I would hit that". Okay the middle-aged people say that, too.

I'm far too Christian to go there.

In all seriousness she is a little bit young looking but something else about it and I don't really feel it's all that attractive... Is that Kendall gender. I love my Moto G voice translator!

Kaitlyn gender... Completely by accident that is funny as hell.
