Stu thinks Nene WILL be suspended. Still waiting on pending word.

What strategy should Wittman go with? Could Seraphin be called upon? Afterall, he knows Joakim very well, and he can score inside. Seraphin is always a strong post defender but his awareness is crap and of course he doesn't get boards or do anything else to impact the game.

I shutter to think of Drew Gooden and Al Harrington getting abused for boards when Booker is gassed.

Wizards need to play with a chip on their shoulders for game 4. If we can win game 4, imagine Nene returning to close the Bulls out in smelly Chicago!

...and the collapse begins. #sowizards. Wittless isn't starting Gooden. He isn't that smart. Who's ready for some hot Booker action?

Went from a emotional high not more than 48 hrs ago to the worst I've felt about this team all season. Where is that Grantland article. This really was too good to be true. The Wizards were doomed to failure all along. All signs point to this team folding like a deck of chairs.

Offensive and Defensive rating is worse with Nene on the floor (100 mins), both are better with Nene off the floor (45 mins)

If I understand that right, it's basically saying our offense and defense is statistically better when he's not playing. We give up less points and we score more points? Our offensive rating looks much higher when he's off. This might be a situation where stats don't tell the full story...

Precisely.

Nene's intangibles and intensity set the tone the first two games and he hit big shots.

So... we'll miss that and end up... #SoWizards
