They're playing without Amir, Leandro and 'Drea, so it's not a lot of talent that's being worked with there.

Haywood came close several times.

The tank was strong tonight.
Eric Maynor is the worst basketball player I've ever seen.

Is there any way that we can do a retro-stash with Sera? It's hard to imagine him becoming a baller w/o playing full-time minutes for 3 years.

Tough night for JaVale. Still learning that sometimes it's better to stand still and hold your position than to try and fly over top of everyone (or send your man flying and get T'd up and fouled out in the process).

Hopefully this will motivate him to get enough strength and bulk on him to do that.

Some of the officiating in these recent games is like the Donaghy game from a few years back. My theory is that Stern is helping the Wizards tank and wants us to win the lottery again.

That had to have been a flop by Hibbert. McGee came in pretty hard but he didnt come in THAT hard. Good to see him throwing his weight around on players he thinks he can muscle though, even if we barely saw him all night...

Well, in fairness, we took Mike Pence off their hands. Taking back Mahinmi is the least they can do.

I missed this game, so I'm pleased they got their tank on. And this was one of the remaining games I was afraid we might win. Come on Boston, try to beat Miami in the standing and take it to us! Thank you sir, may I have another?? Then, BAM, forfeit to the Cavs.

Yeah, the Wiz don't look so good when they are playing a team that has something to play for.

To be fair, Charlotte had something to play for too.

The Wizards just can't handle beefy low post players. Hibbert abused McGee. And once McGee got into foul trouble, there was nobody on the bench who could step up and play defense.

This was one of those games that just shows how much work the team still has to do. The individual stats of our "Big Four" have looked good lately, but none of them play much defense. That was embarassing to give up 75 points in a half.
