Yep, and it cost us the game.

Hes not the only guilty Wizard for that though, its pretty easy to conclude that it is fatigue against a scrappy defense. And even with the turnovers his play is still much improved. There was a time when 7 to's was an every day occurance, he's brought them right down recently.

Next game i'd like to see a lot less, and we will probably se that.

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

Why didn't Vesely get more minutes?

Vesely has 7 points tonight. Is that a season high?

Anyways, another loss another ping pong ball! Time for copius amounts of Guinness, corned beef, green urine from green beer, and celebrating a racist stereotype.

Oh man... 8th TO for Wall, and it came in garbage time. Just hang on to the ball John, the game is over.

I know the game was over, but look how effortless that turnaround hook was for Seraphin. Definitely needs more post up opportunities.

There was no reason to play Wall that late in the game. The guy obviously didn't have it tonight. Playng 4 of 5 nights, what's the point? You have 10 guys and you are using 9?

He was going for the 3x 2x.

The team has 20 TOs. Wall with 9 of them :-?

Wall was close to a quadruple double. :lol:

Nice games from Booker and Seraphin. I'd like to see Booker drive more often. He has such an athleticism advantage over most guys but shooting spot up jumpers isn't putting it to use. Seraphin with 4 blocks and shot 5-7 from the field. .

Wall looked very tired.

I think fatigue + new lineups + a long, active defense did in the Wiz. That and careless passes and a distinct lack of floor spacing shooters.

I'm extremely impressed with the development of Seraphin's game. He looks like a totally different player from the guy that played the first 10 games of the season. At the beginning of the season, I figured Seraphin had a 50/50 shot at getting a 2nd contract when his rookie deal expired. It's not 50/50 anymore. Seraphin is legit. He may not be a starter in this league, but he'll play for 8-10 years.
