What, wait. How did those guys get on the Grizz?

Wow... they start Ivan Rabb -- guy they picked @#35 in the '17 draft.... Look forward to a chance to check him out.
He's played under 500 minutes this year. Played about that all last year. Seems to have played pretty well last year & a better this year.
Grizz started out strong, fell apart, & I guess decided to rebuild forthwith...?
Their record is worse than ours, & we're at home. In principle, we have a good shot to win this game.

Crucial must lose game for the tank. We can tie the Grizz in the loss column with 41.

Just one or two more losses here and missing the playoffs will become an absolute certainty. (It already is a certainty, but the team just doesn't seem to realize it yet.)
The sooner we acknowledge that it's tanking time, the better. I'd like to see us play out the season with Beal limited to 28 minutes, Brown getting 30+, and Parker starting. Let's see what he can do.

Brad can lead the league in minutes playing 30 a night for rest of season. It’s irresponsible to play him more than 30 tonight. But Ted.

Jabari makes some very questionable passes. He really forces a lot of them resulting in turnovers.

Noticed it last game, seems like Beal has slowed down his release from outside by a fraction and looks smoother and more focused on the follow through.

Mike Conley is so good
Mind boggling that Memphis is 2nd in points given up per game but are last in the NBA in points per game.

It looks like Beal is going to try and get his 3P% up to his career average. Two games ago, his 3P% was .344. Six quarters later, it's up to .358. He has made 14 of his last 21 attempts.

This is some of the worst defense I've ever seen. From both sides.
How many simple pick and rolls are we going to let them convert without any weakside help at all?

Defense wins championships anyone?
It's like a pick-up game. Everybody wants to score nobody wants to get dirty on the other end.

I don't care how bad the defense is, Beal has had open three's all season and hasn't shot it that great. Now he's going 8 for 10 and the dude continues to play the most minutes of anybody in the league. I'm amazed by the consistent effort he gives game in, game out.

Beal played 45 minutes 24 hours ago.

Memphis really tryna tank here, subbing out Conley in a 1 point game earlier with 6 minutes left. However, he wasn't playing his best in the 2nd half.

I want Beal to hit one more 3 to break 40 points and tie the franchise record for threes, and then I want the Wizards to miss all the rest of their shots and lose the game.

Jeff Green has been lights out from that right wing three.
