Congratulations Bradley!

He has been very consistent this year. He hasn't been awesome because of the 3-point shooting, but he's been good for 20 or more points almost every single night with a respectable shooting efficiency. He hasn't had many truly great nights, but he hasn't had any duds either. He has had an eFG% better than 45% in 15 of his last 16 games.

Over the last 3 games, he averaged 30 points with a TS% of .569 while also posting 6 rebounds and 7 assists with just 2.6 turnovers. He has been a rock.

Keep pushing up that trade value Bradley... er I mean, keep up the good job Bradley.

I'll be so disappointed if they trade Beal. He's about the only player on the roster I truly enjoy to watch. (I love Sato's heart and hustle, but his game isn't as aesthetically pleasing as Beal's.)

I hear ya, but I get a stabbing pain when those wide-open 3's don't go in. I won't lose sleep if we get a nice big haul for him and start a rebuild full-on - even if it's Sam Hinkie style.

It would have to involve Wall departing. The last thing in the world I want is Beal gone while Wall stays.

I'd prefer it that way, but I wouldn't put an internal restriction like that on it. If the Wiz trade Beal for mainly picks and inexpereinced players, I'd think that would encourage Wall to try to help the Wiz to trade him (do things like waive the trade kicker).

Well deserved for Beal. It's time for the Wizards to build around Beal and Otto. Let Wall, Morris, Mahami, and Dwight Howard go.

Be careful what you wish for.

Brad was a warrior tonight.

Yeah, but he missed 2 shots he should have made near the end - a short floater/layup that he looked like he was intimidated by Turner on and an open 3. Gotta make that 3. 10 of 27 shooting - meh.

Well deserved, a pros pro, gotta respect the hustle.

Indiana played some good defense. Washington's TS% was .512. Beal's TS% was about the same: .499. So he carried the scoring load without detracting from the team's overall efficiency, which is what you need from your primary scorer.

It was a decent game by Brad. Not a great one to be sure, but not a particularly bad one either.

If any of the “Big 3” (ugh) are traded I’d celebrate.

BB carried a team where his only backcourt mates were the lousy Austin Rivers and the passive Tomas Satoransky and you're complaining about 2 shots he missed when he was dog-tired after playing 40 plus minutes. Geez.

He was 10 of 27. I mean... I'll give him a gold star if you want. He had a solid game but certainly nothing special. And Indy was playing without their all-star 2 guard, so pardon the hell out of me if I don't get excited about his solid performance against their backup 2 guards.
