When this team is healthy they have enough offensive talent. Without RJ it just looks like last year without BI. Season holding on by a thread.

When you’re down 2 starters, it’s tough to win when one of your best guys looks entirely uninterested in playing basketball.
Should have just sat out if he was sick

I have no clue why Darko brought back Ochai.
Stupid decision after stupid decision.
Sick of Darko.
I never seen him win games where he outcoached someone or made some smart adjustments, feels like we are winning in spite of him

Just calling it like it is... you play pathetic, you get called like 90% of this board is doing. You must have been great at getting those purple participation ribbons loll
I'm sure your room is filled with championship and MVP trophies.
You'd be shocked, which is why I can use that line

Embarrassing, but you can tell the Wizards were on tonight, they weren’t missing anything

True, but with Jak / CMB sitting we probably were still better off him playing than Mogbo.

Gradey Dick is about to be playing in Greece or Lithuania after his rookie deal. What a waste of a pick

Thats what tends to happen when you try and build from the middle you get middle of the pact or not very good prospects/talent....We are missing guys obviously which is hurting us but the deep bench talent/prospects on this team is hideous for how bad we been for 5 years you would hope by now you have something to show for it...
I wish Masai weren't fired.
He owns this roster, and he needs to be ridiculed for it

We played GREAT and just had to tip our cap against a GREAT team lol.
I mean, some nights you just play a team who hits shots.
That’s pretty much what happened tonight. Wizards hit a LOT of tough looks and pretty much their entire rotation shot above their season averages.
In an 82-game season you lose games like this sometimes, and on the other hand win games you have no business winning.
They beat almost everyone tonight, best offensive game of the season for them.

And with the bench being useless apart from Shead and sometimes battle

But everyone will read way to far into it and come to some insane conclusions though I have no worry of that

Thats too much of a loser mentality for me to get behind. Id feel different if we didnt just lose to the Celtics without Brown and the Nets. Not to mention, all 3 of those games were practically blow outs lol.

You must think this team is insanely talented if they're winning in spite of him.
