GAH! Really jamming. This will be the down and dirty game thread.

Back end of a back-to-back, game 2 of a 4 games in 5 nights stretch. Coming off of a complete trouncing at the hands of the Pacers.

What to watch for:

1. Wall A/TO ratio and energy level.
2. Beal shots attempted and %.
3. Hornets fg%
4. Wizards total TOs
5. Nene not hurting a calf, hammie, etc.



What: Wizards vs Hornets
Where: Time Warner Cable Arena -- Charlotte, NC
Time: 7:00 p.m. EST
TV: CSN+, NBATV, Quasi-legal internet streams
Radio: WNEW 99-1FM (Livestream

Go Wizards!

This team bombs threes as well. Marvin Williams is solid this season. Batum and lamb cannot be slept on. Hopefully they force Jefferson to jump hook us to death instead.

I felt we lose vs Pacers and before todays game I`m not too optimistic. I know that criticizing John Wall is tabu but He is playing like ass almost all season. He is passive, He often is lazy at D, and his TO is ridiculous. We can bash Gortat, Neal, Hump etc but key is Wall. If He won`t start to play better we are going nowhere.
How dumb must this sounds "best backcourt in the NBA" when He isn`t best PG in own team.

I`m expecting a L but hoping for W.

John Wall must be getting some consistent punani, that's my theory (srs)

Good consistent punani will suck the life force out of any man

Kemba Walker must not be getting any since he is playing pretty damn well.

2011 was pretty damn good draft, Knight and Walker have matured.

Hump is still starting....ooof. Marvin Williams might drop 6-7 threes on us. Good thing I have him on fantasy, lol.

Give me Neal 10 times out of 10 over Temple. Anderson can't get healthy soon enough.

Porter not being a threat from distance is hurting, as is Wall. Plz start Jared in the 2nd half. Hump is more situated to guard a slow guy like kaminsky.

John Wall channeling his inner Kobe -- has taken the most FGA this game (so far).

I'd love to know Beal's 3pt percentage on wide-open looks this season. It's probably sub-20%.

As I listen, the Wizards went from trailing 68-74 to leading 81-74.

Neal, Beal, and Temple were all on the court to close the third.
Tre Johnson is the future of the Wizards.

Dudley man, what a dufus-type run.
