It really wasn't trashy at all, expecting a team to take a shot clock violation out of pity for your team is ridiculous.

Brandon Jennings doing the fake tough guy bad at basketball though thing is just hilarious actually. if anyone deserves to be embarrassed it's him. *points magical gun at Jared Dudley* LOL

Maybe he can hit the club with John and Brad before our next game though, to get his mind right. New Brandon Jennings nickname: not better than Satoransky.

I kind of agree, seeing headlines like "They tried to embarrass us!" Duh! They did embarrass you. They are a great team and they aren't easy to beat, especially on their home court. Quit whining and use it as a wake up call. Try to run the table for the rest of the season.

Like I understand not letting off the gas and putting your foot on their throats has its place in the play off's where you can't afford to let a game slip due to sports man ship. But in a regular season massive blow out where its not even close, to keep your starters in and have your players run up the score, is a bit bush league. They were salty about that loss we gave them, but as every one knows we hold a grudge better and harder than any team in the league. They don't want this war, so they better hope we don't make it out of the east, cuz they don't want to deal with the bad intentions that a revenge motivated wizards team can bring.

It's a **** shot clock violation. Showing a little class and sportsmanship is more important than worrying about having a **** turnover count against you in the box score. But I guess not to a team that cares more about pumping up their stats. That **** should be beneath a team of the caliber of Golden State.

And it's not just McGee's stupid ass three that was the issue either. They left their starters in the game the whole fourth to try and embarrass our third string, bombing threes the whole time. They knew what they were doing. It was a trashy move by Kerr.



Yeah, so you want the other player to respond with class by shoving him out of bounds. Nene did the same thing last year shooting a 3 and no one here was complaining. Jennings is like one of those old dudes in baseball. Also, no one went after Nene because people seem to like to pick on McGee.


We've been taking shot clock violations this year when in a similar situation. We also haven't been leaving our stars on the floor in blow outs to try and embarrass the other team's bench. It's just showing respect for your opponent. Yes, just like in baseball, there are codes of sportsmanship and class in the NBA. Yes, when you violate them, you can expect retaliation. What Jennings did was nothing. The Warriors got off easy. They're a great team, but they don't wear it well.

Good Lord, why is any Wizards fan trying to defend what the Warriors did last night? It was a trashy move and it's absurd to think Golden State didn't know what they were doing. As a fan base, I thought we at least had a little pride.

Stupid, you are comparing 11th man Tomas Satoransky shooting an airball 3 in a blowout to Steph Curry and Draymond Green playing for stats up 22 against Washington's backups. McGee is an idiot so I'm not surprised he took a 3 late and but really don't think Jennings (another idiot) had a reason to shove him.

Sorry, you can't save face here. They're literally doing the same thing they were crying about. There's no picking and choosing when it's 'right' to be shooting threes in a blow out. :lol:
