That reminded me of the painful loss to Philly years ago when AI stole the in-bounds play. A long whaaaaaaaaaaaaaa??? and game over.

i don't like anyone in this draft anyways, even davis.

look at how much meaningless wins cost the redskins this year with regards to RG3


Exactly. These wins don't give us momentum into next season like some people think. A lot of these players might not even be on next year's roster, and the remaining players will forget all about a win against DET. Eyes on the prize!

Ehh.. then why do we even watch? Why even have gamethreads at this point? (I'm genuinely asking myself as well)

Awful way to lose 3 straight games but at least it helps our draft stock. 3 double digit leads blown, horrible.


ahh.. I think Randy was on the team for not getting it to the post more for a while now.

This team is truly cursed.

I'm actually giggling about this because of the lotto chances gained.

Nene came through. Stuckey hits. Wall didn't not.

I'm not at all mad. Just thinking this team really has some hard, hard, hard luck.


Wall was absent the 4th quarter. Whatever they changed, it isnt working for Wall.

Singleton and Mack are terrible offensively.

The good news:

The D has been awesome since the trade.
Nene is clutch.
Seraphin continues to play well.
John Wall nearly had a triple double in a low scoring game.
We get more lotto balls. There's no way we'll catch Detroit now.
Losing a close game is better than being blown out.

These losses are tough to stomach right now, but you'll will turn those frowns upside down if we win the lottery. :pray:

It's just the way we are blowing these games that really stinks and can't be good for us going forward. Even when we eventually become a watchable team, sh*t like this will come back to bite you in the fatty parts.

Blatant throw of the game by the refs. When they waited two minutes into the wizards timeout to look at the foul on wall over and over again five times -- only to give it to detroit. You could see it in the wiz' eyes -- they knew the refs weren't going to let them win, no matter what happened. Wall was fouled on that dump off from Nene and they didn't call it. Detroit knew they could get away with murder on defense and nothing would be called.

Crawford is hopeless on D. I bet Nick Young would have effectively challenged Stuckey's shot.

For those who want the tank, look at the next 10 games.

They are catching a easier part of the schedule.

John Wall is a disaster....he is painful to watch in a half court game. I hate to say this and I didnt want to believe it but K Irving is so much better.

I would trade Wall and our lottery pick(unless its #1) for Irving and Clevleands lottery pick

Singleton/Vesely are the new tank commanders. They scored only 7 points in 58 minutes.

Vesely played 28 minutes, Seraphin 26. :banghead:
