If anyone is surprised by Kispert off the bounce, he’s randomly one of the better scorers in the league on drives this season.

I wouldn’t have guessed he’d ever have that type of ability.

lol yeah that wasn't close. Good try, Pritchard! Cool how happy and encouraging everyone was for him as he came to the bench.

They'll win, but they should have been resting the starters for the whole 4th quarter. Now they're stuck grinding it out for four quarters.

Win, lose. Whatever. No one can still say with a straight face that they're playing to standard. They should be ramping up and building chemistry. The starters together especially. They should be getting better at defense, not worse.

Their standard is different from our standard. :lol:

I can't imagine any player in n b a history hitting two half court shots at the buzzer. In One game..One tenth of a second from history.
2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe.. :nod:

A bit of effort on defense, a little driving, a little going to the low post and its a 36-16 quarter. Who would have thought?

Also, I’m not a huge Joe guy but hope people give credit to him because he looked pissed going into the half and has had the team respond in the second.

Brad chose defense by opting for Springer.

Yeah, I feel like in college he was just a shooter. But I remember at the combine he had some impressive times in the speed/agility drills so he had some good quickness. He has taken that quickness and just kept working at his driving ability since being in the league.

He's a really solid player. He's the wizards 6th man and is emerging as one of the better 6th men in the league.

Yeah. I was coming here to ask whether the guys were still soft pretenders and Joe was still a terrible coach.
