15-15 after this huge loss.
I will be surprised if the Wizards lose by less than 15 points.

The Wizards proved they can play good team defense and efficient team offense - from time to time.
Rest of the time (lately - most of the time) they cruise control through iso plays
and out of context midrange inefficient Bealshots and Netodrives.
If they manage to minimize the latter, they can sometimes beat teams like Jazz/Suns.
Otherwise...

Guaranteed loss. They should rest anyone who needs rest and just play the end of the bench.

It's interesting, I kinda think our team resembles the Phoenix Suns in many ways, except for the MASSIVE disparity at PG.
Dinwiddie is like a destitute man's Chris Paul in that he's a cerebral, methodical PG.
Beal is similar to Booker as a scoring guard who thrives in midrange.
KCP is a 3&D SF like Bridges, only Bridges is a better defender.
Avdija is a role player at PF who plays good D on and off ball, but doesn't force much on offense, a lot like Crowder.
Gafford is a hyper athletic defensive big like Aayton, only Aayton has a much better offensive arsenal.

Imagining what the spread must be - with the Wiz on the back end of a back2back on the road against Phoenix. Oh the brutality.
Call me crazy, but I'd like to see Holiday playing 30 plus minutes to see how he matches up defensively against Paul.

I am with you, only I really don't see much upside with the youngins.
Ironically the guy that's playing G-League is the only player I feel may have some legit upside.

Nice comparison. Still they are a better coached team so we gonna get the L, but again, loved that comparison

Agreed about the PG position.

I would be shocked if the Wiz cover the 9 in this game. Though Holiday does push the pace a bit. That dude already has two fouls.

Nice coaching Wes to leave Holiday in with two fouls against CP3. Really smart.

We're playing pretty decently. Problem is when Beal comes out and you have Kispert and Neto in the backcourt. With Bertans trying to defend anybody on the floor.

Love that 5 point swing to end the first quarter. Beal finds Bertans cutting to the basket. Ball gets to him right under the basket, but bounces off his double chin. Suns take it the other way and hit a 3. Once again, down by double digits to start the game.

So much for playing decently. Worst team I've ever seen defending the PNR. Teams are attacking it every time.

Great Bertans probably has a fractured wrist. Kispert not in the game.
