I don’t want them to win, but it’s exciting seeing these guys play this well on the road

Oh yeah... I remember that guy. Only... he didn't seem that tall....

I’m Nate Robinson-sized. Lots of guys look tall to me. My sister married a guy 6’5” and his three brothers are similar height. I have a photo standing with them at the wedding, looking like I’m the coach.


I'm 6'2" and it always takes a minute for me to realize I'm kinda tall. Like at concerts where I can see over most of the crowd with only a few tall heads poking up. Interestingly I was 6'1" in my 20's and in recent years on one Dr's visit they had me at 6'3". I blame bovine growth hormone, I drink a lot of milk. Anyway at this rate I figure by the time I'm in my 80's I'll be ready for the NBA.

What a terrible ending to the season. That was insane. I can't beleive that just happened. I had taken Miami live too lol, up 118-114 and blow it. That is UNREAL. Beat a scrub Miami team for what?

Oh wow. Miami really didn't want to play Cooper Flagg every year in the Southeast division. Dirty pool Pat Riley. Yay Wiz. Hopefully the lotto gods reward us for trying.

You can’t tell, developing young players not to win. Wiz may still get number one pick, but regardless, I’m not looking back. Way to go, Bub!

Well, that was a great shot and hopefully karma takes care of us and not the Jazz or Hornets. But either way, I'm just going to assume Flagg will not be in Washington next season.

Crazy few minutes, Tristan had bobble-hands, and Bubs love of his mid-range nearly got us the tank, I fully expect pick 4-5 now.
Great for the kids to win like this.

How about that!

Yes they should have lost, but I'm not even mad. What a great shot and end to the season. The whole team running over to celebrate! That was awesome!

Reminder that this loss had no bearing whatsoever on our odds for Cooper Flagg or Dylan Harper. It had a small bearing on odds of somebody like Tre Johnson versus somebody like Khaman Maluach, but at this point, after #4, the draft is a total tossup. Nobody even has any idea who the #5 pick is likely to be.

I'm happy that they tried to win rather than disrespect the Lotto Gods.

Really though. Bub can spend all summer working on that floater. High off the glass or otherwise. If he has that shot in his arsenal he's going to be far more effective in that 3'-10' range. First you win then you get good. He has the memory of his last shot of the season to work on over and over.

Wizards completed one of the worst winning % seasons in franchise history, yet I haven't had this much hope for the team's future in a long time. I'm looking forward to the draft, offseason, and next season.
