GT #16: HEAT @ Wizards 7 PM (CSN/99.1 FM) [12/1/14]

YOUR Washington Bullets are 10-5! They are coming off their first win vs. a Western Conference team and continue the home stand vs. the Miami HEAT. The HEAT will probably have Dwyane Wade back for this one and he closed the game in the first meeting between these two teams. John Wall and company also let Norris Cole of all people have a career night in South Beach during the season opener.

Chris Bosh has stepped up his game in the absence of LeTravel and has upped his numbers across the board. The Wizards bigs simply cannot stop him. Nene would definitely help and is the only big with the footwork to keep up with Bosh.

I predict one of the HEAT guards... either Chalmers, Cole or Napier will set Wall and company on fire.

Last game:
Pelicans vs. Wizards (W) 80-83
HEAT vs. Knicks (W) 86-79

No Nene, I expect a repeat of game 1

Hate Wade. Bosh is underrated - & BTW one of the more educated & well spoken players in the NBA.

Deng usually gives the Truth fits.

Beat the mother ****!

I have tickets to see Kobe & the Clips in 12/2014. If Wade is playing, I may pay a visit to Stub Hub tomorrow morning.

PS John is one hell of a talent & faster than lightning. When is he going to grow up? At crunch time, he needs to get the ball in the hands of one of the clutchest players of his generation (TRUTH) or BB - and not throw up a spastic J.

I anticipate a win by wiz to get us to 11-5.

Wiz 108-95-

Wall with 20-11 with 3 steals and 4 rebounds
Beal 28 and 2 assist
gortat 10 & 12
truth- 8 points - all in the last 2 minutes

Bosh goes for 40 and 13 but takes the L!

If we lose to that sorry overrated team again I am going to puke. They shot lights out the first game of the season don't see that happening again at least not in the Verizon Center. A loss here would be worst than Atlanta.

It'd be nice if Wall and Beal could show up.

You sound like a old school bullets fan - scared that they gonna break your heart:)

The truth is- it's good if the team can win ugly sometimes and grind out a defensive victory. Miami gets up for the wiz and it's time for Beal to take over and become A allstar caliber player. Wall generally impacts a game regardless of his stats- even if he can't shoot some how he gets 19 and 9

Let's go Beal- prove me right and get 20+

Huge game for the Wizards to get some buffer for later in the year.

MIA got them game one so they should be up to get revenge.

TOR just lost to LAL in LA and they have at SAC next

We win and they get some separation from MIA who is clearly more dangerous when Wade is playing.

CHI is getting healthy so we need to get it rolling again over these games.

Dec 1 MIA
Dec 3 LAL back to back East coast swing.
Dec 5 DEN could be a tough one. They are getting healthy.
Dec 7 @ BOS
Dec 8 BOs
Dec 10 @ ORL

Here hoping they get on a roll again because the schedule is going to start getting harder after that.

Looking for 16-5 or 15-6

Saw CCJ's post in the random thread and I just wanted to de-cloak and let you guys know that even though I'm not as active as I was/want to be, I appreciate that you guys still keep it going with game threads and whatnot.

Miami is coming off a game last night. The Wizards are rested.

I'd really like to see Beal play better. His "preseason" is over. We need him to be a 20 PPG star-caliber player.

Bosh is quietly becoming one of my favorite NBA players.

I see no reason why the Wizards can't win the next 6 games, or at the very least go 4-2. The schedule begins to get difficult at the end of the month.

Wade played in their last game.

My tickets are on NBA.com and CL. sec 104 row R.

I see a win for Washington.
This game will be much different than game 1 against Miami because this a different Wizards team from game 1.

Humphries is way better settled into the offense. Wall understands his role better and even though Beal is still getting adjusted, his presence alone does wonders on both sides of the ball. Gortats 24 pt 13 reb performance against the Pelicans was encouraging. Pierce is still very effective at containing superstars like Carmelo and Lebron. I don't think Luol Deng will be problem for him.

Our bench has their legs under them now with Miller using his vet savvy and taking advantage of smaller pgs. Anyone on the bench from Rasual Butler, Gooden, Seraphin or Porter can get hot any given night. Outside of Wade and Bosh, Miami poses no real threat and that miracle performance from Norris Cole game 1 won't happen again especially based on his performance yesterday vs the Knicks where he went 1-3 with 3 points.

if this is a game to take threes, this is the game

Miami's pick and roll defense leaves shooters open.

Looks like no Nene tonight. CSN reports that he did not participate in morning shoot around.

Wade is going to post Beal and Temple to death...GR JR might be useful defensively here....but he's still in the frigginD-League right now ain't he.

Temple may be out. Foot or heel problem, I can't remember which.

Butler syndrome....or perhaps something far more serious.

.......lack of talent.

Your WINNER will be
