UGH. The second half of the terrible twosome.
I dont feel as strongly about the Wizards as I do against the Hornets but man, if they come out sluggish they are dead meat

if we come up with this win I'll know we're locked in and are ready to make a push towards a higher seed. I don't know what it is about Charlotte and Washington, but I feel the same. I'm always bracing myself for a loss. Hopefully we can take care of business tonight!

Another big game. I agree Pistons never seem to play well against the Wiz, but I think they'll get the win tonight. It's an ESPN game so hopefully Pistons come out with something to prove. I'm tired of Gortat looking like Kareem when he plays against us.
A win tonight will pretty much keep Wizards out of the playoffs. They're dropping fast. Hopefully Chicago losses to Toronto as well.

We need to come out STRONG defensively. We've been giving up a lot of points in the 1st quarter lately, don't let them get going early.

I'm to lazy too check but hasn't Gortat held Drummond to like 0 offensive rebounds?

it'd be big to get a win here (duh) since that would leave us up two games on the bulls with only four road games left and 11 games at home.

Dre has to show up and start off strong.
Comments to rationalize bad contracts -
1) It's less than the MLE
2) He can be traded later
3) It's only __% of the cap
4) The cap is going up
5) It's only __ years
6) He's a good mentor/locker room guy

Jackson needs to shut down Wall. Didn't Wall call out RJ's contract? Really need to get this win.

This game starts with Dre. Will he let a, still pretty good, second tier center own him like he has recently or will he come out with fire?
We should start every possession giving him the ball in the post. Get him rolling.

I'm watching this one, live (on ESPN), for once. We're gonna win, and win convincingly, or I'm gonna be pissed. The Wiz are playing like crap lately, and we need to kick them while they're down.

That's not going to happen. Any other way to get the win?

Re: Game 67: Detroit Pistons (34-32) @ Washington Wizards (30-35) - 8:00 PM ET
Huge game. We need Dre engaged and energised from the get go. Ill try and catch the second half, but I think I may miss this one

RJ hardly plays average defense, so we can check that off. it'll be Pope guarding Wall as usual.
But yeah this is a must win and Dre has to show up and go hard on Gortat unlike last time.

Wizards are playing for their playoff lives, they know if they lose tonight they are just about cooked. They've played like **** lately and are due for a win. Pistons better be ready, cause I expect Washington to come out strong and play like their season is on the line. We need to match that intensity and play as if this is a game 7. I just question if our team can reach that level of intensity because this is the type of game we have lost all season long. Hoping for the best though.

Any somewhat skilled white center usually destroys Drummond
