GT #36: Rockets @ Wizards 7 PM (NBATV/NBCSW/1500 AM) 

Post#1 » by FAH1223 » Thu Dec 28, 2017 3:46 am

YOUR Washington Bullets ARE 19-16! They were 17-18 at this point last year! :clap:

After a HUGE win at Boston on Monday, they dropped a game to the worst team in the East in Atlanta. Unfortunately, its been a constant theme. Your Bullets are 9-10 against teams under .500. They only lost 9 games against such teams last year even during the horrible start to the season.

The Wizards' inconsistency has been a constant this season. Which means... they will get up to play the Rockets and our old friend Nene (who's way better than Mahinmi). The Wiz are 10-6 against teams .500 and above.

The Rockets are in Boston on Thursday. CP3 isn't playing back to backs so we'll see which game they decide to play him. James Harden continues to be an MVP candidate and he'll be going against a Wizards team that loves to foul so expect the beard to live at the line. The question will be can the likes of another old Wizard, Trevor Ariza, guys like Ryan Anderson and Eric Gordon be contained? Also, Clint Capella won't play as he suffered an orbital fracture.

I'm going Rockets here. Go Wiz though.

Former Wizards Ariza and nene will have their way along with harden gettin 20 free throw attempts. If I was Brooks I'd start trying to get ejected so I wouldn't have to coach this team in game anymore.

These big games seem less important now since we follow them up with losses against the worst teams in the league.

Look, there is one simple fact about our team. You can talk about Ted, Ernie, or Scott all you want but the fact is that we are probably literally the only team in the league that the Franchise player has been average at best all season. Wall went from thinking that he would be a legitimate MVP candidate to he probably won't make the All Star team. You really can't tell how good we are until Wallstar shows up.

I would like to say that he will snap out of it soon but I've said that all season. It started with Gortat's Lonzo comments. Wall is as good as anyone at his best but he's always been a front runner who lacks mental toughness so we have been stuck in mediocrity. Wallstar needs to show up soon. That is when you can really judge us

How much better with this team be if we can substitute Mahinmi and Meeks with Zach Randolph and Vince Carter?

That would be two veterans who could tell this team the right way to play.

Three things bode poorly for the Wiz tomorrow:

1. Looks like Paul didn’t play tonight, so I guess he suits up tomorrow.
2. Rox will be pissed.
3. Gerald Green always scores 30 against us.
