[GilFan89]

why start mcgee if he's only gonna get 5 mins. and if he and young continue to combine for 9 mins a game we'll be 20 games down real soon!

[BigA]

Thanks for the thread.

[closg00]

Granger an TJ will tear us up.

[NickDaGiFt]

Blatche gets the start

[Chocolate City Jordanaire]

If the Wizards win, the teams records would be 5-17 for Washington and 7-17 for Indiana.

time for a win...WIN time

time for a win..WIN TIME

Don't Care...young guys will not play, and I'd rather cut off my testicles with a spoon than watch Mike James play.

[BruceO]

I'm excited to watch this. Dray and McGee vs Hibbert will be interesting match to watch. I want to see how much Hibbs has progressed. Also I'd like to watch Granger vs Caron as first options. I like Granger a lot and he's one of my prototypes for Small forward. Like to see how that works against a good player like Caron. Also marquis Daniels has stepped up. The PG match up should be interesting as well. And watching why troy Murphy gets so many rebounds should be interesting to watch.

I suspect mike James will have an ok game. Over 10 points scoring on good efficiency. His first game he was rusty. Second game he was ok. Lets root for our players as opposed to against them, he's a wizards now. His being good makes him a decent rental and puts some pressure off critt to perform immediately and gets some pressure of gil to come back while not fully healed. The organization trading Daniels for him heads up and having a second rounder given to new orleans tells me we value him somewhat

spaded check your email then

I don't think you can get worse than a Desuck/Mike James backcourt.

I don't think you can get worse than a Desuck/Mike James backcourt.

I was surprised to see James touch the ball twice and pass both times. Every time he touches it I expect a shot.

[yungal07]

Another losing quarter by our great "vets."

Deshawn is getting outplayed by his man as usual.

[sashae]

Ugh, this team stinks on toast. Incredibly lackadaisical play, terrible shot selection (yes, Andray, Mike, I'm talking to you) and of course.... bad substitutions.

My wife keeps asking why we watch this team (she's a college hoops fan, not pro.) I wonder.

[Chocolate City Jordanaire]

There goes James' first awful shot.

[yungal07]

LOL WTF kind of shot was that by James? If that was Nick Young, he'd be on the freakin bench.

Tappscott is a 2nd rate flunkee of a coach. No McGee, no shotblocking, no rebounding. This is Eddie Jordan part 2. Why fire a guy and then promote a guy who makes the same dumb azz mistakes and rotations? BOOOOO....i'm a second away from turning this bull off.

[MJG]

I flip into the game for the first time, and what's the first play I see? James taking a contested, off-balance runner that bricked. I'll now be flipping right back out.

Foster and Nesterovic on the court and the Wizard have Songaila at C. Pacers playing volleyball on the boards.
