So sick of Gortat's soft ass play. Why can he ever just gather himself and attack the basket.

My god. You saw it start at the 9 minute mark. We have no structure or purpose on the offensive end. One completely empty possession after another.

EG must go... But Wittless needs to be fast on his heels out that door.
In Rizzo we trust

John has no faith in Oubre yet. I've notice he's been open but he's more comfortable going to Dudley.

Two big plays by Wall. The elbow jumper and the nice pass to Gortat.

Good win guys. We needed that one. Nice game by Dudley and Temple. Really needed that.

Wall put them on the path and Dudley brought it home with his play in the second half.

Despite the win, frustrating to see them taking care of the ball in the first half and getting so careless in the second. Wizards have no margin for error with their front court issues, if they can't improve their ball security they're not going to go anywhere.

Yah the win really was nice, and needed. Would be nice to have Porter and Nene against the kings. Also like oubre doing positive things. Keep developing rookie. Hopefully better games from Ramon and Neal on Monday.

Nice to get the win, but I kind of felt that win was due more to Hornets having an off night than us playing that well. Our 3 point defense continues to be horrendous.

Bah humbug. This is a mediocre team and they do what mediocre teams do. Win some and lose some. I don't expect many wins to be pretty and perfect. Not without Porter, Beal, Nene, Gooden, and Anderson. Sure, Charlotte basically handed us the game with a million turnovers but we took it. Any win is a good win without two starters and three bench players.

I'll take it, but I didn't see any light at the end of the tunnel.

Should be possible to win lots of games with Wall playing 40+ minutes per game :nonono:

They can shave off some minutes when Porter comes back. No reason to run the 3 guard lineup when our bigs are generally undersized. I imagine Porter should be back for the next game and Gooden/Nene were questionable going into this game so maybe one of em should be back by Wednesday?

Wasn't able to see the game, alas. But... this has to be the most pessimistic thread yet for a win.

Surprised at so short a game thread, especially with the W.

I forgot, why was AlJeff suspended? never mind, I'll google it.
Oh, weed.
Stupid of him but also IMO, stupid of the league to suspend him for it.
It's not a PED and as long as he's not publicly advocating for using, it ought
to be between him and the team provided it doesn't become public.

We can't win without Wall playing great and playing a ton. Team around him is just so bad.

F you Ernie.
Eric Maynor is the worst basketball player I've ever seen.
