"I've been dealing with this for seven years," Beal reportedly told team officials, per Charania, who described him as "exasperated." Beal looked over to Wizards President Ernie Grunfeld after an argument with teammate Austin Rivers and said roughly, "It starts at the top," according to Candace Buckner of the Washington Post.


Of course it starts at the top. Especially then the voices of the people (fans) go unheard for so long.

So, is Tommy Shepherd the interim dude?

Question - would EG still be the GM if he hadn't signed Mahinmi?

Anyway, I'm not really a fan of this move. What does this say to future employees? That Ted has no sense of loyalty? One small slip up and you're gone.

Congratulations.

Congrats Wiz fans!
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Please advise….
