[NBA] WSH @ LAC, In Progress : 20 : 39

At the end of the first quarter, this one is laughably over. Clippers 39, Wizards 20.

We stink.

This team is insufferable.

They're an open layup line on defense. They launch errant three-point shots that remind me of Iraqi Desert Storm-era scud missiles.

They're so bad I'm upset with myself for watching this stupidity.

Thoughts about this game:

Why did I watch this?

Bilal needs a shooting coach

Thanks for the belated game thread CCJ, people are losing interest, including me.

The 10:30 pm Eastern start time is a challenge for me but I usually still try to watch some of the game. Also the Maryland @ Illinois game was on too. Fun to watch Julian Reese have a career night. I think he had 27 points and 17 rebounds

Yup. Horrible 3 pt shooting.
Horrible defense.

Sidenote- I like Megan McPeak but 2 games in a row
during her brief pregame report she said we hang
our hat on our defense. I know she likes to be upbeat
but that's hard to take seriously.

Decent game by Sarr.

A Wizards commentator said a few games ago that Bub Carrington had no weaknesses offensively, and I had to laugh out loud. Our commentators are ...delusional.

Who do they think they are fooling with that? IDK.

If all parts of your game are the same level of suck, then maybe you don't technically have a "weakness"?

Belongs in the Terp's thread, but nice upset last night Reese and Queen beasted.

They are trying to fool themselves.
