Are you pro TWO or you think given the current roster we should make a push for the playoffs and build that winning culture?

They are about to lose by 40+ tomorrow night, maybe less than 30 if Poeltl and IQ play. There is no playoff push this season.

Why on earth would you think we are doing anything but tanking? Every single move we made at the deadline helps the tank.

Lol playoff push. Hilarious, we’ll be lucky to win 5 games going forward. Need to find some rest for Scottie for Wizards games.

We can start the "winning culture" bull next season.

Take your Adderall and sit tight for 30 more games. It's gonna be okay.

Let's hope Poeltl and Ingram don't play another game this season.

Until we can evaluate our roster, I think it is premature to claim we are in win now mode.

Poeltl is out
Quickley still on a minutes restriction
Davion traded
Ingram hasn't been cleared
RJ in concussion protocol
Rookies will be getting minutes
We ain't winning anything soon for now. Next season we switch to winning basketball.

We are banking on a top-10 pick in this draft. Next season...we are a solid 5-6 seed which is a good start. We aren't done building because we have tradable contracts, all of our own first round picks and young guys to trade for the next big star that is available for trade.

Tank this season, playoff run next season (the east is very weak)....so both, there needs to be a 3rd option in the poll.

Our players are going to push and go hard to get every win they can.

But our roster isn't going to win much.

This is such a weird question to ask today.

We really need the pick to be top 4 if we want real impact players ready to contribute next season.
