GT: Wiz @ Hornets Thu Feb 5 7PM EST

[BeesWax]

Yep he has shot over 50% in 42.8% of the games he has started. If you remove the blow out game against the Nuggets where he went 0-7 and only played 23 minutes he is shooting 40% in his starts this year.

[catch20two]

That's a rather optimistic way to flip it and look at it as if it never happened. We're winning so whatever.

[BeesWax]

Or it is the way that makes sense. He has shot poorly some and well others. He has not turned over the ball more than once in 6 of the 7 games. Not really being optimistic as much as factual. He is playing decent for a backup thrust into starter minutes.

Oh and bad Kemba shot 36% and 26% in November so they are shooting the same.

Is there a better matchup in the NBA for Maxiell than DeJuan Blair? It was the battle of the chubby 6'6" PFs, and Maxiell clearly won. Max put every inch of his 7'3" wingspan to use last night.

[BeesWax]

One is old and one has no ACLs. What a pair.

[LofJ]

Was this the first game we actually played only 9 guys? Will be interesting to see if we keep that up when Biz and eventually Kemba return. Hopefully we keep Roberts and not Neal in the rotation.

Also, good things happen when you hit your free throws. Team was 81.5%.

I could not agree with you more here, Clifford is crazy if Neal is in our top 9 rotation. It should be these guys in no order:

Kemba
Henderson
MKG
Zeller
Jefferson
Biyombo
Williams
Lance
Roberts

With Hairston subbing in for Lance (if he's sucking) or Henderson (if he's hurt). Neal shouldn't be in our rotation at all come playoff time.

Anybody got vid of Hendo's monster stuff on Gortat's (I think) dunk attempt? The one where Lance blows the fastbreak layup right after? Pretty much summed up the team in a nutshell this season.

I hope Lance pays off the right shaman to lift this curse on him, I can't remember the last time I saw a guy that looks like he should be killing it on the court shoot so miserably for so long.

I couldn't find any surveillance of Stephenson's blown fastbreak layup

[Eoghan]

Oh no, I was referring to his block. My bad. He flew in from nowhere and rejected one of the Wiz bigs.

[BlackOutBuzz]

I know I saw the clip on the Hornets app, so I'm assuming it's on Hornets.com.

I missed this incident when it happened last night, but some of the sports shows were talking about it today. And you felt bad for Zeller getting yelled at by Stephenson......

It was NBA.com's Block of the Night last night.

I noticed this last night and pointed out to the person I was watching with that Blair was going nuts on Humphries.

Then I remembered posting this during the game on Monday night:

Seems to be a lot of in-team niggling between Wizards players.

I can't remember exactly what it was or who was going at it but I remember there seemed to be some real tension between some players heading into a time out.

Maybe all is not well in the land of the Wizards???

[catch20two]

They've loss 5 straight games. 3-7 in their last 10.

[TheKingofSting]

I pray we see them in the playoffs!
