Boring! Screwed Up! Fans Scream for More! 

Post#1 » by payitforward » Fri Jul 5, 2024 5:43 pm

9 days ago we had R1 of the 2024 draft -- a busy day for the Wizards.

Since then, we've done... nothing.

R2 of the 2024 draft was 8 days ago -- that day we did... nothing.
The following day, & every day since, we've done... nothing.

Wait... that's not quite true. We did restructure Richaun Holmes' contract.
& we did move Vukcevic to a 2-way contract.
& we did sign Valanciunas.

But even those moves were days & days ago.

It's getting boring. We need more action! Just about anything would do.
Fire the assistant intern for social media.
Stage a urinal-cake explosion!
Announce that all seats in the arena will be reversed, & fans will be asked to view the action over their shoulders!

Can't we find an interesting undrafted FA to sign? I can't believe they're all gone every single one!

We have to do something. One more thing. What do you think it should be?

"Trade Brogdon," writes nate. Which sounds like a good idea.

Who might be interested, & what might we hope to get for him?

Not gonna lie, I'm screaming for less. Too many good players. Tyus Jones, Brogdon, Kispert, Kuz, Val, with Poole off the bench - that team could mess around and win 25 games. Still garbage, but not garbage enough. Wouldn't be mad if all of Jones, Brogdon, Kispert, and Kuz were traded. We looking at 2nd round picks from 93 to infinity!
Can't say I do. Who else gonna shoot?

Idk I look at this roster and think we may have done the impossible and created a sub 15 win club. The only thing that gives me pause is the fact that all of our lineups will include some serious beef in the middle which was not the case last year

I want to load up on 1st rounders in 2025 and 2026. With our vet players, is it possible to get 3 or 4 firsts?

FO wants 2 firsts for Kuzma. Brogdon maybe could get one. So maybe 3 in total. But I imagine FOs will be less willing to trade their firsts next year since its supposed to be so loaded. Hard to imagine Kuzma gets 2 firsts at all tbh...
