19 point game :clap:

Embarrassing to say the least. I hate the way this team has been playing lately. Poor rebounding and some of the worst imaginable defense.

This lineup is a complete self check. At least Eddie made it clear early that there was no point in watching this game.

More sleep for me. Good night.

Down 22. Wiz have 2 points all quarter against one of the worst defensive teams in the league. Young looks awful. Everyone does really though. :banghead:

I'm really worried about Caron. I mean, he was never the most durable player in the league, but it seems like he really is turning into the second coming of Larry Hughes (health-wise, not talent/production wise).

I'd hesitate to say we're going to "rule" anything if we can't get healthy and STAY healthy.


The good thing is that Caron doesn't take time to get his form back so whenever he comes back, he'll be close to being the all star he is.

hopefully this injure is nothing serious. I'd like to see Abe get a better training staff for this team. Something needs to be done about the ridiculous amount of injuries.

I have no problems with us losing this one. We're the worst team in the league if you take away Caron and Gilbert. There's no reason to expect any different results.

In order for us to be in a game (or even win it) without those two, it would take the stars aligning -- energetic and smart defense, and sound offensive execution with a big game from Antawn, and the supporting cast to all perform their jobs perfectly.

Agreed. Eddie conceded this one early. Oh well, this team is content with mediocrity and embarrassing losses. Time to go watch some baseball. The Extra Innings package is free all week! :nod:

I hope you realize we're playing against the best home team in the NBA without our two best players. It might save you a lot of blood pressure and unneccesary whining.

Can we please sit Antawn down?

Last thing we need is for our final All-Star to go down with a serious injury in a winless game.

If they wanted to tank this game they should have at least won yesterday guaranteeing a 3-2 road trip. This is the Wizards we are talking about though. Mediocrity is thy name. Another first round playoff exit is on the way if they continue to play with such lackluster effort on the defensive end.

Let's go Natssssssss!! 2-0!! 8)

You have to be the most pessimistic and short sighted person I've ever e-seen.

All we had to do was go 2-3 on this road trip and thats what we did. One loss and you're ready to fall of the ledge. Get a freakin grip already.

Pecherov is a bust. It'd sure be nice to have rondo, or marcus williams right now.

I mistakenly had the game time on my calendar as 10P. I flipped into CSN, and I see that we're down 61-35 in the middle of the second quarter. Uh, yea. Let's pretend I didn't see that and continue flipping the channels.

Haven't watched the game, but by the looks of it, EJ has the Jazz right where he wants them... ;)

It's these types of games that bring out EJ's glaring deficiencies as a coach. There is no set offense. We've accomplished a lot this season, but still have a lot of work to do. If I take off the two best players on the elite teams, sure they'd struggle, but never ever get embarrassed like this. EJ is fools gold. Only talent makes him look good.

Let Young go off for 30 and drop the game. I'm going to bed, I just don't understand why this team can't stay healthy.

That's true of 100% of the coaches in the L.
