GT #72: Bullets @ Magic 7 PM (NBCSW/980 AM) 

Post#1 » by FAH1223 » Tue Mar 21, 2023 2:53 pm

YOUR Washington Bullets are 32-39!

11th in the East, they're 3 games back of the 8th seed but about 3.5 ahead of tonight's opponent, the Orlando Magic, for the 6th best lottery odds!

Your Bullets were dominated from 3-point range against the Beam Team from Sacramento on Saturday. Porzingis may be back which is bad for the tank.

The Magic are coming off another close loss. The Lakers were able to outlast them on Sunday night behind Austin "Hillbilly Kobe" Reaves' 35 points at Staples Center. It was Orlando's 6th loss in the last 8 games by single digits.

Can the Magic get this win?

They should just shut everyone down and let the kids play. I'd actually tune in.

Wright or Goodwin/Davis/Kispert/Deni/Gaff leggo.

They ain't going to let us have any joy.

Good news we are now 2 games behind Chicago for 10th seed with 11 to go. A lost tonight gives us a much needed nail.

Must lose. IND lost their last game. We need to keep up with them.

Masochistic enough to be watching this game right now…we are a team in disarray, no other way to put it.

Is there something like a 3rd year wall? Because Deni has hit it hard…he has lost it big time.

Good second quarter by Deni, but his passivity somewhat still frustrating me. I want to see him one time telling himself 'tonight this is 'MY' game when he trying to make a statement with a 35-40pts game. He doesn't look like he really trying or believing in himself. That last cut, instead of dunking the hell out of it, he has just chosen a soft lay up instead. He sometimes acts like a midget instead of a 6'9 player.

Yep, Deni has an issue with confidence. That’s undeniable…

Down 8 to the Magic now. We need this lose for the tank!

Ps: Our SM prima Donna is having another nightmare evening. What a massive disappointment he has been. Not even a top 50 player any more.

zero points first quarter, 12 points second quarter, zero points third quarter with a midget body language again...

You're a millionaire getting paid to play basketball. Hire a **** high quality mental coach and solve your issues already instead of staying the same year after year. I still have high hopes for him (as opposite to most Wiz players and this scarecrow coach) but some of his character's softness really get me nuts.

So great watching ISO ball fail time and again. Broken record with this team.

The tank is on like Donkey Kong. Only wish they had started earlier. Need a game changer from the draft.

I really really hope he asks for a trade in the off-season. Can’t stand watching him anymore. :roll:

Beal is so tragic. He'll never ask for a trade, because he knows no franchise is stupid enough to give him the treatment we do.

The tank is rolling unintentionally on this hapless franchise.
