6:00 CDT for those still watching

22 games into the season and I'm hoping that last night was a road bump for the momentum they seemed to have been gaining. Something still seems very off with this team.

Probably not just one thing.

Last night was disappointing and I don't know if Ariza plays tonight.

Motie needs to get up to speed and hopefully soon. I hated the early substitution last night which messed up the rotation and got the team down big early.

Ariza is not playing tonight.

KJ McDaniels has been recalled to join the main squad tonight.

I wish KJ got more run as is but this makes sense.

I still think if a trade is out there for Markieff, it will likely involve Brewer to match salaries and should give KJ more opportunity to become a wing defender like Corey.


I do love Corey though. I just wish this team would get their shooting straight.

Wizards start the game with Dudley on Capela and Capela gets two straight dunks. Might be a mismatch. Haha

Why the hell do they double pick and roles inside the three point line. It's so stupid. The guy just takes one escape dribble and passes to the big wide open in the paint. This scheme is god awful if you aren't getting turnovers.

Dwight looks upset that he isn't getting the ball. But when you make your team mates turnover the ball by not being ready for it like he has they aren't going to want to pass it to you.

Good win for the squad. They are still finding their way and simply need to mske the playoffs as a 7 or better.

Wasn't Jones that turned it over. They forced a couple passes to him that were turnovers
