We have to go back to our losing ways...

why is Gil a game time decision. I thought he was playing every game that wasnt a back to back?

The Heat always seems to have our number, we can safely put this one in the L column.

I read an article on nba.com today that said Haslem, O'Neal, and Beasley got injured last night. Haslem is out, I think the other two guys are available. Haslem always kills the Wiz. I want a win against D Wade.

Think happy thoughts, think happy thoughts. Nevermind that fish posted the winning Travs thread after also posting the losing Gristlies thread. Nevermind that pine actually let ji post the first game thread of this season... Think happy thoughts. Please gawds have mercy on wiz fans everywhere.

Um Blake Griffin. Happy happy happy.

Yeah, Michael Lee also posted it on the Wizards Washington Post blog.

Gilbert Arenas will not play tonight against Miami, with the team electing to give the three-time all-star some rest. "The knee is fine," Wizards interim Coach Ed Tapscott said. Javaris Crittenton will start in Arenas's place after missing the previous game against Miami with back spasms.

I think Gil is a jerk for not playing tonight. I understand about the logic with his health and all but you have to make these things public. He told everyone that he will play all the home games and people bought tickets strictly for that reason. Its not fear to them, espicaly after youve already missed all these games. I bet alot of people will be coming to this game for the main reason of seeing him and now he's not playing and didnt make it public. He shouldve said right after the game in the media that he may change his stance on not playing all the home games. Most casual people who go to games dont read the insider to know that those things may have changed.

Im a Gil fan and I take up for him alot but I got mad when he said that he might play in the Crizz game over the Cavs and now Im mad because of this. Again, it wouldnt be any problem if he wouldve just said that he will only play in a select few games but instead he made it very clear that he will play in all the home games. He said it. He said it and people bought tickets strictly because of it. I know that some will say that this could happened at any time during a season and no one is guaranteed to be there but this is still different to me. Again, I understand him resting and dont mind it at all but he singled out the home games and now he's not playing

I don't feel as strongly about it as you, but I agree with your general point - that he needs to make these decisions ahead of time and more publicly known.

After the last game, Arenas said he would likely sit this one out of Crittenton was able to go. Otherwise, he would play.

Critt looking good racking up the assists

Another one bites the dust....Nick Young looks hurt.

Only down 2 at the end of the 1st not bad.

dlts20 · Post #19 » by **dlts20** » Sat Apr 4, 2009 11:58 pm

The 2nd unit O looks horrible without NY. Why did Blatche get pulled so quickly? Does he have 2 fouls? We need more scoring

MOrgil · Post #20 » by **MOrgil** » Sun Apr 5, 2009 12:10 am

horrible game so far, pretty boring game too. Juan needs to get lost. Hope Young's injury isn't serious...
