We look disinterested for some reason. This game counts just as much as the one last night in the standings.

this is **** embarassing. If you want to be an elite team you need to show up for these games. I don't care how tired you are, you get paid to work with the schedule.

Only chance here is to try and get it to 10 by the half.

4th game is tough enough, but on the road and coming off back to back wins over the best team in the league is a very tough situation. I did not expect a win tonight, but I hope the boys rally tonight.

You guys need to realize how bad ALL teams do in this situation.

there is not one guy on this bench who can keep us in games. We need a vet coming off the bench who can SCORE (ex: Michael Finley, Walker whhen he was in Miami, Stackhouse, etc.).

we wonder why ESPN won't cover us as contenders...because the harsh reality of it is that they would look like idiots for playing up a team thats gonna get blown out by 30 or more to the KNICKS the next night

dude chill out. Do you know how hard it is to play 4 games in 5 nights? They are tired as hell. They can't do anything about fatigue.

This happens to real contenders, as well (see: Detroit vs. Knicks, not very long ago).

I'm wondering why people have quit on this game already and are calling for the scrubs. I get that the starters are exhausted, but if they can rally from 12 down in the fourth quarter against the best team in the league then I see no reason they can't rally from about any deficit in the first half against one of the worst teams in the league. Right?

I don't think the Wizards have enough to win this game. They played last night, and are trying to come back from a 20 point deficit so its probably a lot to ask for them to come all the way back and win. We'll see though, they're not quitting which is good.

Exactly. Its a 10 point game. The Knicks suck balls. We're tired as hell and still in the game.

Also, when you're tired, the first part of the game is the toughest. I'd looked like everyone was getting their legs back in the late stages of the 2nd. I expect a close game the rest of the way.
