Just for because.

Tawn Back?
Millions Back?

I dunno. Discuss.

Thanks, I wanted a thread but was afraid to start one. I have bad juju from my Indiana thread.

No Jamison & Foye tonight. I saw it on the Wiz site. Miller will go. Pistons will be without Hamilton & Prince. Should be really interesting to see the matchup between Miller and there smaller guards. IDK who comes out better in that one. Hopefully Blatche gets the start again

Its so funny how the Wiz are so cursed that we are supposed to get a now healthy AJ back for this game but he may not play due to him being so sick recently. Him & Foye are game time decisions and this whole situation feels iffy to me. I thought Foye may play but now they act like he’s going to take his time. I would like to have all our guys back this game but its not a huge deal since we now have Boykins to step in. You then have Miller who is bent on coming back but he says his shoulder is still sore. I went from wanting all 3 of those guys to play until now thinking that all 3 should sit until the Cavs game.

Either way this season still comes down to Gil for me and its all about his speed & pace. Basicaly from the opening tip I can always tell if he’s going to play a great game, an average game, or a horrible boring game. I want to see him pick his overall game pace back up and to play with speed & burst. The good thing is that we are playing Detroit which I think is the perfect game to get Gil’s mojo going again. He usually always plays good against them but he also usually kills Indy & the Suns and sucked this year. The difference though is that Detroit has Bynum at guard and Gil ususally always tries to go off against guys who went to Arizona like him. He also worked out with Gil all summer so I think Gil will be aggressive. He had his best game and most aggressive game of the Preseason against them so I think he will try to play fast and do that again. I also think he will be boosted by having his friend Boykins out there and will want to put on a show for him and sometimes side by side with him.

Again, he’s the most important thing to me. We will be a bad team with Gil playing slow and with us injuried. We will be a solid team with Gil playing slow and us healthy. We will be a very good team with Gil playing fast and us injuried. We will be a great team with Gil playing fast and us healthy. If he plays fast then I could see him putting up crazy numbers this game and looking like he did against the Mavs. If he plays slow then it will be another close game that we could lose, healthy or not

Michael Lee wrote that Gilbert, after a nice talk with Flip, has decided to shrug off his mad-at-the-world attitude, and he will supposedly return to being Agent Zero who turned up the Hibachi on a nightly basis.

I'm game.

I am sensing that most people are busy tonight, or people have already given up on the season

Haywood gets no respect at all. He was just murdered on the last play. No call.

Crappy teams don't get calls.

Brendan Haywood, the worst finishing around the basket Center in the NBA.

Shame. Shame. Shame.

Yawn, I'd rather have a colonoscopy than watch this team. Is Gil playing tonight? I wasn't sure. I guess he's still tired from Tuesday.

Live and die by the jumpshot... Some things just never change... :nonono:

Imagine if Miller wasn't playing tonight.... wow...

JWizmentality · Post #19 » by **JWizmentality** » Sun Nov 15, 2009 12:32 am

Man oh man. It's heartbreaking to watch Gil out there. A mere shell of his former self.

Wow, this ref thing is getting ridiculous.

Now I think we'll make a run with DeBrick in there. Can he guard Mr. Clean?
