Wiz can leapfrog the Bulls with a win on Tuesday night.

Let's go Wizards!

Pine's game thread record is 7 wins, 4 losses, and he's tied with Tricky_Kid for longest win streak (3 wins).

Bulls will be playing on a second of a back to back while the Wiz have a day of rest and the game is played in DC. When so many things stack in the Wizards favor I get a little nervous.

If we can win the Boston game the day after this it'll be a statement win. Need to shut up the Isaiah hype!

This is a fairly important game. A win would put Chicago behind us in the standings and give us the tiebreaker advantage in H2H matchup (though that could be evened out if we lose to them in our final matchup later).

It won't happen. Isaiah owns John Wall.

Still doesn't mean we won't win.

Wall usually loses the matchup, but his teams sometimes win anyway. When the stars align just right (like career high from Porter, Thornton and Burke with monster games off the bench) they can beat the Celtics, regardless of the Wall-Thomas matchup. An occasional unexpected victory despite Wall is good for team morale.

I was just looking at that box score and I think the most amazing thing about it is the fact we outscored them 34-8 in the first quarter. I must of missed this one despite my Otto avatar coming from this game.

Guaranteed loss.

Wade not playing tomorrow. Butler is sick but playing tonight.

I'm so tired of feeling indifferent about the Wizards. I feel like really rooting for them again, at least for a week or two. Perhaps it won't hurt so much this time. . .for now.

Butler ruled out tomorrow as well.

JWizmentality · Post #16 » by **JWizmentality** » Tue Jan 10, 2017 3:50 am

Butler and Wade out. Their offense was already crap with both. Watch them drop 120 tomorrow. Please no #sowizards tomorrow.

Can someone explain the dog picture theme pine has going on? It feels like there is a code to them but I'm too dumb to figure it out on my own.

If the Wizards win the next two games I'm on board and there's no getting off the rest of the season

Pine can confirm or not, but I think it's a continuation of, or homage to, AFM's dog theme from last season. I don't think there's a code or deeper meaning to the individual pictures.

I know that it's at least 10-0 Thomas.

Who will prevail?
