Wizards @ Cavs Preseason Game Thread 

Post#1 » by nuposse04 » Wed Oct 23, 2013 10:45 pm

I suppose we need an official game thread. Kyrie is starting at SG tonight...so that should be amusing. No local broadcast so either radio or streams

Hopefully the starters don't play much, or at all. Especially nene/booker.

Thompson should destroy ves on the boards.

Why Nene is playing, I don't know. Hopefully no more then 15 mins.

Comcast CH 45 has a Wizards tip-off but the game doesn't appear to be on except for NBA TV Team 1
which requires a special sport package.

Look like you have to catch an internet stream.

Wall only has 2 moves now. Pull up jumper. Pass to weak side.

Wall is playing with a very vanilla set of moves. Ariza is actually knocking down shots. Don't have too much against the offense compared to last night, but the defense is just lacking energy again. Wall can't give Kyrie space.

I have to believe he's just experimenting out there. He's jacking up shots he never really took, even when his jumper was decent. He has to be just winging it. If not, we should all be worried.

I would replace fast break with pull up jumper.

I don't believe he lost what he added last year. He looked to dame good. Gotta think its just finding a grove.

Really. Another year of falling behind by 10 to 15 in the first quarter every game.

Come on Randy. Find a solution to this.

And what the hell is wrong with Wall ?

I really hope its just that he's playing possum this preseason and is actually able to "flip the swtich" once the rs starts, but a lot of the team's problems can be placed on his effort and decision making so far.

Typical wizards away game. Just no energy. That's actually my biggest concern for the season, it's hard to get to .500 when you just give away half of the games.

Return to Washington Wizards
