I thought Rui played well. Certainly compared to Kuzma. Got rebounds and defended better than other Wizards. Seemed hesitant to shoot 3s for some reason.

ARRHHH! What is it with Wizard coaching when it comes to players shooting the damn ball in rhythm when they have a clean look? Wiz players too-often hesitate, then are forced to dribble a bit and hot potato the ball to someone else. We have horrible ball movement again too.

Comments like that is one of the reasons I’m glad Beal is getting every penny of his big contract. If you're going to have to endure asinine insults from fans you might as well get paid well for it.


I don't think Beal cares what I think. :lol:

Yeah…there were a couple of instances when Rui passed up open 3s and opted for long 2s instead. Disappointed to see that given how well he shot the 3 last season.

Beal better develop some thick skin if he continues to play like how he played last night. That was embarassing.

I mean, he does not look good compared to the likes of Brown and Tatum...chalk and cheese!

Seriously! Cry me a river and wipe the tears away with hundred dollar bills.

Beal is extremely lucky to play in DC where fans are conditioned to expect underperformance. It took Kwame, Juwan, and Baltche a really long time to earn the boos - I don't know if I see DC fans giving a crap enough to come out with those boos again, no matter how trash the Wiz play.
Can't say I do. Who else gonna shoot?

I don’t want to pay Terd for the privilege of regularly losing my voice from booing. I had enough of that. Unfortunately, he sells enough tickets that he didn’t hear that boo.
