GT #29: Bullets @ Nuggets 9 PM (NBCSW/980 AM) 

Post#1 » by FAH1223 » Wed Dec 14, 2022 5:53 am

YOUR Washington Bullets are 11-17!

LOSERS of 10 out of their last 11, they have legitimately been the worst team in the NBA over the last two weeks.

They aren't getting blown out of the water, they just can't make FTs, can't make 3s, and Wes Unseld Jr. is in over his head with his rotations... and he isn't helped by Tommy Sheppard's bad roster construction.

As of today, they have the 6th best lottery odds.

Charles Barkley even mentioned how futile this franchise is by how much Inside the NBA DOESN'T talk about them.

Anyway, the next 18 games show sure fire Ls. The race to Wembanyama or Scoot is on.

Hopefully the Nuggets take care of business.

No chance we win without Porzingis unless Kuzma scores 50 while going 9 for 12 on step-back 3's.

On the one hand, Jokic, Denver's best player, is gonna playmake the game and share the ball with his friends. In the other hand, our "Big 3", or now, "Big 2", are gonna play alone. And that's ladies and gentelmen, why we're not relevant in the NBA, and won't be a real threat in the league, even with everyone healthy and ready to play, also Beal. The problem is way more deeper. It's with the coaching, and the system inside this organization. Don't let anybody convince you differently. This is the truth. And that's why honestly I hope right now all your youngins, Kispert, Goodwin, Deni and even Rui, will find themselves a new club to play basketball. Maybe even not in the NBA. I just want them to be happy and enjoy basketball. I bet they want that too deep inside.

KP been our most important player and Jokic-lite. Gafford likely gets in foul trouble and Taj gets abused. Wiz give up 130.

He'll still give up 51 on the other end...

How exactly been Joker-lite? Does that mean he's even more white than Jokic?

This is a pretty funny thread so far, given that we've laid 60 points on them with almost 5 minutes still left in the first half! :)

Jokic looks like he's going up against assistants pre-game.

So Jokic can hook his defender, elbow his defender, or initiate contact by slamming into his defender -- and it's never a foul except on his defender? Got it. Great player -- doesn't need all the extra help.

What happened to Vernon Carey Jr.? Is he even in uniform? We need a big body who can at least lean on Jokic. This is getting ridiculous.

Well this is about as well as you could hope they would play.

Is it me or do our players really stink at converting opportunities created by Deni?

Yeah, he should have about 6 assists in this half alone.

The Wizards are finally getting some stops, but suddenly went cold from 3.

Its just you. The players really stink regardless.. the only difference is it easier to notice as he usually looks for passing the ball first (not necessarily a good thing thou)

Jokic is 17-20 but has gone 0-2 from 3-point range.

He is 17-18 from 2pt range. Totally unstoppable.

Return to Washington Wizards
