1. Wall. I'm only disappointed that he didn't get 1 more steal, so he'd get more national pub with the triple double. What does it take to displace LeDouche from the daily dime headline? My God.
2.Thornton. Played hard, in control, smart even. Maybe our second best player at getting his own shot right now w/o GIl in the fold
3. (tie) Martin and NY

Making extreme statements like "only" sounds like there are "no" Jokics in this draft? Jokic is an engine that was drafted in the 2nd round. Always a chance to see diamond dropped by sloppy burgular after a theft.

Wall is a godsend. Basketball is my favorite sport and I'm glad the Wizards are fun to watch again. It makes me quite happy.

I dunno about the daily dime but I'm getting sick of the Heat
getting coverage in the Post the way they have.

The Wizards will probably have a worse record than the Skins, but I think this season will be a lot more fun.

Even when both the Skins and Wizards suck, I always enjoy watching the Wiz a lot more. Maybe it's because most the last few years we've mostly had lovable losers but I never got that vibe from the Skins.

Wall of course . . . and we beat a weak team by 1 in overtime but it was great to see Blatche and Young finally having a good game and Carter Martin with the big shot. Thornton has been the most consistent guy on the team this year, which sure wasn't his rep coming in so congrats to him too.

Maybe they had to embarrass Indy to get over the shame of losing to the lowly Wizards j/k
The game for the Pacers they beat the Sixers by 13, which is a sign you can't read too much into one game. Although I do agree it is a hopeful sign that the Wizards beat a team that is capable of playing well. I think the important thing for this season is to win a significant majority of the "winnable" games and compete in the ones against the top teams. So far the Wizards have done that in 2 out of 3.
