Right. I wish KP well, but I think we will be well pleased with the trade that netted us Tyus Jones, Danilo Gallinari, Mike Muscala, and ultimately two future 2nd round picks from Chicago (2026, 2027, for #35 in this past draft). I hope we re-ink Jones, even if we don't we will likely get better value this year than we would have for KP's $35m expiring option year.

Well, plantar fasciitis can be short term or long term…so maybe we got lucky in having him play a high percentage of games for us. I too am happy with the return we got in trade.

Unclear if it's major or not- it could be serious be it also could be that KP is saving himself for the Celtics on what could be a championship run. Time will tell.

Ha! Forgot to mention this sighting of Agent Zero and others at Capitol One Center. Big 3 playoffs this past weekend.

https://big3.com/teams/enemies/

'Enemies', the team previously coached by Gilbert, now with interim player-coach Nick Young, features Jordan Crawford as their primary scorer. Who knows maybe next season JaVale and Blatche can join :clown:



That league was made for 'Steez' Jordan Crawford.

Full game

Looks like the championship game is tomorrow. They go against the triplets who have:

- Jeremy Pargo, the brother of Jannero Pargo who GIlbert Arenas hit the game winner over in Chicago.

- Damien Wilkins also played in the game in Seattle where Arenas hit his final game winner before his career altering injury.

- Joe Johnson - 7 time all star who played briefly with Crawford with the Hawks. Johnson and Crawford also both played on the Celtics in different parts of their careers. Johnson actually was on the Celtics in 2021-22 and would have been eligible to win a ring had the Celtics beaten the Warriors.

- Larry Sanders- the former VCU star who left the Bucks due to personal issues. He's still only 34- I wonder if he would actually be a viable NBA player for a team like the Heat who could have used him against Jokic (would have been potentially better than Zeller), assuming he has anything left in the tank.

STEEZ wins with the last shot. Nick Young and Gilbert get that championship.

Jordan Crawford was made for the Big3. The other guy I know would dominate that league is the other Crawford, Jamal.

Wasn’t that Jordan Crawford who did a cameo as color commentator during summer league? If so, I think I remember him being really good. Hmm? Could he be the next Wiz announcer?

Gil really opened up about self sabotaging himself after the gun shyt and how he lost his passion for the game. Kenyon Martin looks really surprised.

For a brief moment I thought maybe you were saying Jordan Crawford was really good
(as a player).

I missed his stint as an announcer.

I thought Martell Webster would be an excellent choice to an a TV or radio guy.

Definitely. Webster IIRC started rapping instead.

I was sure Martell would be a media success; he is exceptionally smart, articulate & funny. Don't know why it never happened.

Pretty sure it was Jamal Crawford, who has done some media already. Agree that he was pretty good

Return to Washington Wizards
