GT #45: Wizards @ Rockets 8 PM (CSN/99.1 FM) 

Post#1 » by FAH1223 » Sat Jan 30, 2016 6:34 am

YOUR Washington Bullets are 20-24 and looking towards a lottery pick in this lost season!

They're coming off a loss against the Nuggets where there was no defense played and the biggest defensive play of the game was Kenneth Faried blocking Bradley "I will never be a max player" Beal's dunk attempt.

"It's nothing offensively," Wall said. "We just can't guard a soul."

Tonight, the Wiz are in Houston who took an L to OKC. The Rockets have had their own struggles and have under achieved for the amount of talent that is on their roster.

The tank rolls on!

Wiz have no chance in this one.

Therefore, they will win.

I can't argue with this logic. It seems to hold up every time.

Wizards will lead at halftime, and will have normal 3rd quarter and not recover.

Harden is gonna go to the line about six dozen times.

Even more plausible is that the Wiz will be up by 12 or so with Harden held to below 10 points.

Pine will take his daughter out to do some pick pocketing, Oliver Twist style, in DuPont Circle. When they get back in the middle of the fourth, the Rox will be up by 18, and Harden will have shot 42 free throws.

Oddly, I feel a little optimistic about the Harden issue because Garrett Temple is starting instead of Beal. Temple is a real good defender.

Except that they'll probably do a pick and roll with the guards to get Wall to play his ole defense on Harden. Surprisingly vegas as houston at -3. Do they know something we don't.

Temple's D is overrated. He looks great one second and gets lit up the next. Beal isn't horrible. He's just undersized. We have Porter who has the length to guard Kobe & Harden but our idiot coach puts Beal on them and never changes despite them shooting over Beal at will and those teams not having other great wings. What since does it make to have Beal guarding them with Porter guarding Ariza or Young. Witts an idiot.

As for this game or any future games, may i see how we look with Wall-Beal-Porter-Dud-Gotta again? You can't believe we are abandoning it when we are finally getting healthy. I can't watch this clogged lane crap or Temple starting over Beal anymore even if he is on a minutes restriction. Witt needs to be canned now

Uncannily, kind of close. Out tonight for wife's birthday dinner. Because of the late game start, hoping to catch as much of the game as I can.

Beal is not undersized. He might have been undersized for the NBA when he was last measured at 18 years old, but he's plenty big now - and certainly much stronger than Temple. I have no problem at all with Beal's defensive ability. It's his offensive inconsistency that drives me nuts. And if Harden gets going, it doesn't matter who's guarding him - he'll get calls, and he'll score efficiently.

Houston's just a much better team no matter who Washington plays and should win by 20.

All I'm saying is people were ripping him for getting lit up but he actually guarded them good. They were just 6'7 and raising up over him so it made me mad that Witt wouldn't put Porter on them, especially Kobe who can't do much else except raise up over a guy for contested shots now

So... let me see if I understand. Porter is our best defender, so we should put him on a guy who all he can do is raise up for a contested shot. Is that what you're saying?

I actually agree that Doom`s D is way to much overrated on this board. It`s true this scrub can hustle, steal etc and that is way many of You thinks He is great defender.
