Time: 4:00pm (EST)
Place: Oracle Arena, Oakland (CA)

Starting Lineup - Washington Wizards

pg: Who? Mike James.
sg: Grape Juice

pf: Antawn Jamison
c : Andray Blatche

Starting Lineup - Golden State Warriors

pg: Jamal Chuckford
sg: Kelenna Azubuike
sf: Cap'n Jack
pf: Anthony Randolph

Miller looks to go on another streak.

If we could only get McGee in for AJ and NY in for MJ, I would have my line up. I'm not looking for a win BTW.

Wizards probably match their longest winning streak of the year.

Huh? They went from telling Randolph to find a trade to starting him?

Well maybe if you didnt know BWright, Ellis, Watson, Marco are Injured and Rob Curse is the only other option and Maggatte might start but Nelly likes to bring him off the bench but dont worry Maggatte well still play 30+ mins at PF. Randolph only plays the beggings of the 1st and 3rd quarters. Nelly hates people who can rebound

Darius Songaila vs Rob Kurz is sure to be the highlight of the game.

This might be the first time ever Darius has been matched up with someone smaller AND less athletic.

Seems like a loss, if only because we shouldn't be sweeping the season series from anybody this year.

Here's a weird stat:

The Wizards are 4-26 against the East. They're 4-5 against the West.

WB-50.

Refs are calling a loose game, calling very little. DMac is bringing the ball upcourt more often than not. Wiz disorganized on offense, getting suckered into the up and down pace that GState likes to run.

Okay the adjustment made is that Caron is at SF on offense, Dominic is running SG on offense. Defense they switch depending on match-ups. Interesting so far. Dom looks pretty good creating off the dribble for other folks.

I was wondering why that didn't do that on the first day DMac joined the starting lineup. I guess DMac spent most of his time learning the forward spot and had to take the time to learn the guard spot.

McGuire with 7 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 block in the first. Also made some really good, hard drives to the hoop. Quite nice.

ole!

Classic Wiz defense.

JaM must be either in the doghouse or injured, because ET said a few games ago that he made a promise that was going to start JaM at the beginning of the 2nd quarter of each game. I'm not happy.

Oh, he is in there. Nevermind.

This is what happens when trying to follow the game on Yahoo at work.

The Warriors are mocking Jamison's defense. Just embarassing that your "team leader" is so pathetic defensively.

This team needs a lot of work on the defensive end. We need a system. We look dreadful today.
