Wizards vs Boston Game Thread Jan 1, 2012

Ok, since no one started one, here it is.

I would post the ESPN preview but it is to pathetic.

WP doesn't even have an article posted yet.

Looks like we are on our own.

The good news, I doubt Nick plays so poorly again and Mason should be on the active roster this game so we get our first look at our full guard rotation. That should help some.

I see no news on Vesely yet. If he is ready to play, that will be something to look forward to.

Hamady being sent to the D League says M Lee. Hamady Ndiaye, a 2nd-year reserve big man, is being assigned to #wizards D-League affiliate, Iowa Energy

Since it looks like all hope is lost and not even the WIz fans think they stand a chance, they will probably win. That is how we roll.

Maybe Dray wakes up for the KG match up.

Weird, I have this irrational feeling that we are going to win, totally nuts.

Will Vesely play? That's all I care about. If not, I'll just turn to it for a couple minutes to get a few laughs.

My first thought was that the Wizards would play better, but lose a close one. However, I just remembered it was New Years Eve last night. My guess is the old Celtics were snug in their beds last night before midnight while the young knuckleheads on the Wizards were partying it up past 2:00 a.m. I see another blow out.

Hmmm. Go point.

May have to play the vets.

Lots of Masan, Lewis and Ronny

Booker and Singleton may have some sense about them. Thats a possible five. Crawford is to grumpy to have lasted at a party for very lone. Maybe six players. Nick wants to get paid. Maybe he kept it easy.

I'll definitely be going back to NFL Redzone if Vesely is inactive. We already know how this game will go. Boston is a Veteran team that will chip away at us and not give much back. They will skate to an 18 point victory.

Furthermore I predict the Matador defense will continue, with Blatche and McGee giving up at least 7 uncontested layups (low end), and the guards giving up at least 7 uncontested 3s.

At least Rondo won't torch Wall from the outside.

Maybe Singleton can quiet PP

You never know.

Hopefully Crawford and Blatche don't start.

Vesley sighting. In street clothes on the bench.

Guess he isn't so sick anymore.

McGee is playing really hard so far, even when he's missing.
